 Thank you everyone for attending this meeting. My name is Tariq Islam. I'm working for city of Fort Worth as a graduate engineer in transportation and public works department. This meeting is for 2021 resurfacing state maintenance project. As I said, my, I will be the project manager that sitting inspector for this project would be John Crowley. Construction contractor will be pitch deconstruction. The estimated construction costs that approximately 1.5 million dollar. And project is scheduled to start in April 5. And hopefully it will be completed in November 2021. Project limits there are multiple location in this projects. They are all over the city. Starts with Clayton road. You see the limits of the Clayton road from Camboe to Brands road. Clotill drive from Isbury to East land street. Meme street from Ellis to Martha. We are mocking bird lane from Simonville to West dead end. We have bread bird lane and slate street next to each other. Wellesley Avenue. Prevose to RV street. We have Wessex Avenue which was road to Welch Avenue. These are the streets and the scope of work would be the select replacement of carbon garter drive approaches. And of course roadway resurfacing. Here are a couple of examples. From the scope of work on the left side of the screen. You can see the damage driveway and carbon garter. Those kind of damage driveway and carbon garter would be replaced. And after the completion of the contract on the right of the right side of the screen you will see the the street supposed to look like. This is an example only. On the left side of the screen existing state condition of the asphalt street. And after the paving is complete hopefully it's supposed it will look like on the right side of the screen. During construction there are some temporary impact. Every construction has some impacts. It can be some sounds, some dust, some limited parking availability. And of course there will be some construction equipment will be there. And we will try to minimize those impacts. Enough signage will be placed around the sites. And also good communication will be there towards the citizen during the whole contract. Is there any temporary closure? It will be notified ahead of time. No driveways or parking will be blocked by any equipment during constructions. If any driveway needs to be closed temporarily for construction it will be definitely communicated ahead of time with the residents. And for any streets before the construction begin definitely we will pass the door hangers for each of the residents to let them know what the construction is coming. Regular working hours would be Monday to Friday from 7 a.m to 6 p.m. Here is my contact information my phone number and my email address. You can contact me anytime for any question for the projects through phone or through email. Any questions? Now you can unmute yourself and ask a question or you can use the chat box. Which project do you plan to start first? That is not finalized yet at this moment. But as I said we will get 10 days notice prior to start construction. The first street we're going to start. You will notify each of the residents through door hanger. My name is Joe Graham and my reason for joining this meeting is our concern on Clayton Road. We have stop signs and we have speedbuckers. I request talking with several neighbors. I don't know if they're signed in. I just see three people signed in up here. Our request is leave the speed bumps or put in some kind of something that would slow down the traffic because they do not pay attention. Most of the people do not pay attention to the stop signs. There are slow down signs and sometimes there's no sign at all as far as the people are concerned. They use Clayton Road to connect from Camp Buoy over to 183 and it's a thoroughfare. We have a very walking neighborhood children play. Personally we have our great-grandchildren here awful lot. Other people. Our request is leave the speed bumps. Okay thank you sir for your questions but as far as I know city's policy it to not to have any speed bump in the regional streets but I will check if this policy is still there and I will pass your request to concern section if they need any speed bump. As you said for the kids and the elderly people they will evaluate the streets and definitely get back with you. Can you please send me an email with your information so that we can contact you later. You have my email address here. I certainly do and I have it on the flyer that you sent out from the city of Fort Worth. That is correct. Well suggestions if you're in for suggestions do we send this with the email because I could really talk on this subject a long time and I know there's other people to ask the questions. Yes that will be great I understand your question but as I said as far as I know the city's policy we are removing all the all the speed bumps from the neighborhood streets but it is because of it's causing hazardous to the people as far as I know we're removing existing speed bumps but I understand your questions as I said please send me an email I will send your request to concern sections they will evaluate and get back with you. Appreciate your concern thank you very much. You're welcome sir. I have a kind of a answer to Joe. I live on Athenia and we had two speed bumps on our on our road and what was happening was people were speeding up faster because the faster you go over speed bumps the less you feel them and so now now that the speed bumps are removed the traffic is actually slowed down and that's just from observation and just wanted to tell you that's our case and what we experienced because I believed in what you said too that we had it is a neighborhood and kids play but I have noticed that cars don't go faster now they go slower because they tried to go fast so they couldn't feel it and that was counterproductive it seemed like but I feel you. The speed bumps actually was voted by the by the city council members not to be replaced because to keep him we have to keep him maintained and there is no funds to keep him maintained because you have to keep those reflected marking on it so people can see it at night. Also like Jimmy said we found that people speed in between the two humps to make the difference make of the difference when they slow down for the timing so I can slow down here they go fast so they can catch up by the time whenever they're going and the only thing we found out from the study slows down the emergency vehicles like fire police and ambulance. I have a question I live on Wessex Avenue and it was resurfaced with asphalt just a few years ago what is it being done this time to ensure that the reason it will last longer this time I assume it's going to be resurfaced with asphalt again is that correct? Yes sir it will be pulverized we're going to pulverize the 10 inches of asphalt and put cement and compacted the grade and put a new asphalt top like two inches of asphalt open. Now the construction company was out here lowering the gas lines going under the road surface and they just finished that project and I assume that they were lowered so that you could work deeper into the surface without disturbing the gas lines going under the street is that correct? That is correct sir that's why they go ahead and our reconstruction begins they're supposed to lower their line so that we can pulverize the 10 inch of the streets and put new asphalt on top. Okay the last time they did the surface they didn't go down as deep? There's two different procedures maybe the last time they only mailed the surface and put a new asphalt but in this procedure we're going to go deep and pulverize and make good compaction make you know cement stabilize the base and put a new asphalt on the top this is a different procedure yes sir. Also not necessarily lower the line what they do to take advantage of us going to pay off the road we let all the utility companies know that we're going to repair the street so they don't have to come and cut it after our project so they go ahead and they have to replace all the lines they replace them so not necessarily they just want to lower them sometimes they do lower them with their shallow and sometimes they just replace it with just in the old one. Okay thank you very much. I do have a question. I live on Athenia again and I saw that you on the the examples that you showed that that we of course I do not have a curb at all and I'm guessing you will put a curb in and then also I noticed on one of the examples you showed that some of them did not have sidewalks and then they have sidewalks after your construction so those will that continue all the way around the neighborhood or will it just be for the sidewalks be put it on like for me that just doesn't have a curb at all. You don't have any carbon girder carbon girder will be will be installed in this project that's what as far as I know is there any gap in the carbon girder we're gonna you know fill the gap with new carbon girder but for sidewalk is if you don't have any sidewalk in your street there should will not be any sidewalk install under this project. Yes we we have sidewalks on some and sidewalks on on no sidewalks on some so that's kind of what I was asking if the whole neighborhood has sidewalks. Yes sir those I'm sorry those are partial sidewalks which road are you on sir? The address is 400 Athenia and my drive face is slate. Yes sir you are where the where the sidewalk you're talking about this is what's bought by the developer who built the house at the corner correct that's that yeah that was what what about the developer this this is this project is funded through maintenance fund and we we only replace what's missing like the carbon girder driveways we can do there but to outside walk is not this is that comes from the fund which is that has to be through a capital bond program okay we have to reconstruct the street. Okay thank you you're welcome. Yeah I have a question. Please go ahead. Yeah I live on Clotail Drive and it was saying that you're going to be doing some work on that street so what's necessary to be done on that street? Is this a Clotail Drive? Yes. So we are doing Clotail Drive between Eastland and Berry Street. Are you living on this block? 3800. Yes ma'am that's that your road your road is not bad the carbon yard on your road and the driveways they're not really bad however if any damaged carbon yard driveways we will replace it and we're going to rebave the street but it will be no sidewalk in there. Okay I'm sorry I didn't understand what you say. I said on your road you don't have sidewalks in there do you? No we don't have sidewalks. You do? No we don't. Yes ma'am you don't yeah so what we're going to do we're not going to we're not installing any new sidewalks. The carbon guard and the driveways they're not that bad. Well I want to condition majority of it. Ask him a question. However if there is some broken or damaged we replace it and we're going to repay the whole entire road with the new asphalt and base. Okay as far as I can tell it doesn't need anything down to it so that's why I was surprised that you have a street on there. Yeah if you look at the pavement itself you can see lots of cracks and lots of deep cracks in there what we do with this program we're trying to capture the streets like that before they go really way down and we have to reconstruct it so that's what we maintain and this is a maintenance program. Okay now when is this going to start? We have we have several streets on this project and we have not scheduled any we'll get to the contractor he's going to start it like we have about six streets and they're all over the city and at the time we come to any street we will put the door hang information at your door so that you know that we're coming within few days. Okay all right well thank you. You're welcome. Are you still there? Yeah I'm here. Oh can I ask a question? Please go ahead. Thank you. I'm on Colonial, no I'm not Colonial. I'm on Mockingbird Lane it's that really large street in Fort Worth. When you know several years ago y'all were going to the the water department was going to the water and sewer they're going to replace the water main down the street and the sewer line to a bigger capacity and that's you know that should have already happened by now according to what the meeting you know that I went to many years ago. Now I understand you're going to come down Mockingbird Lane and redo the street are they going to do any water line work at the same time or what's going to happen there? All those streets were cleared by war and all utilities as there is no work needs to be done on that street. Okay because the work never got done that they said that we're going to do so. I don't know sir because that's that's different department and we don't know what's what's on their agenda but for us we send them an notification to let them know that we are working on those streets. Okay and they told us we're clear to go so there's no work for them to do. Okay and so but so in other words you don't have a time line yet or when you're going to be on say Mockingbird Lane because the contract had not been let yet. Yes well no the contract is led already we have this is it's on a contract but we we have not had the precode we what we do we do a construction meeting with the with the contractor and we'll ask him for a schedule to give us the schedule with the you know what we have not got the schedule from the contractor yet but but all of those projects all those streets should get done and finished and complete before the end of the year. Are they going to put a sidewalk on our street? No sir. Let me ask you this question at the I live across from the 15th fairway but as you go as you're going west down the street the the curb stops are y'all going to when y'all paying to repay the street are y'all going to finish curbing the rest of the street on the colonial side? If there is a small portion missing we will replace it but if the whole entire length will not especially on right I believe on the north side where the gulf course is yeah that's probably when we're not gonna we're not gonna have any more sidewalk in there. You're not gonna well I'm not talking about the sidewalk now I'm talking about the curb the also curb I'm not putting at the side of the gulf course and the reason for that because this is it's my bar ditch and if we if we put carbon guard we'll cause a flood and because the war has to go somewhere. Okay okay all right I'm sorry can you hear me? Sure. I apologize very much I came to this meeting a little late. No problem. Jumped off the couch and realized it was already going on so you may have answered some of these questions. I live on Clayton road east in um Richle Hills and I know that the stretch is supposed to go from Camp Bowie uh down Clayton road east and um and at Brant's um you mentioned that even though the contracts were out that you didn't necessarily have a hard and fast timeline as to when this would begin maybe in our particular area but it would end by the end of the year. Am I correct on that? Yes ma'am well our permits because we don't know how well it takes us where there is. Because like from now from now till May or June we can have clay and hopefully not but that's where we schedule we should we should finish before the end of the year. Yes ma'am. What what would be the time frame that um we might be given as a residence on that section of the street to know when it will begin would we get like maybe a two week notice or yeah yes well you'll get to think we're still doing seven day notice right? Yes ma'am you will get notified ahead of time like two weeks notice and two days notice we'll get two notices. So once we start you'll definitely get two notices prior to start. Okay and those notices ma'am they're going to be at the front door so I know lots of people go for their garage and they never use the front door and they miss it. Just you know keep looking to see the door hang from door and also you have the project manager's information you what can we call any time and check and we'll be happy to let you know. So within like our area from the beginning to the end it's not a huge stretch of the street but depending upon when permits come in when we get notices it still could possibly extend to the end of the year and in addition to that question I'd like to ask are will speed humps be put on the street? No ma'am we have a thing Mr. Graham thing he asked the same question earlier the speed humps no longer are permitted the council members and council members they all vote again because to keep him we have to have fund to maintain him because we have to put those reflected marking on it also from our I apologize I wasn't like I said I was late to the meeting so no no no no ma'am I'm too much to repeat myself I just wanted to know where you said that no don't worry about that don't mean it that way but that will happen and also from our study we found that that the drivers especially teenagers on these days drivers and adults they slow down because you have one of those slow cars but to make the different in timing because slow down they go in speed right after the speed hump just to make up the time and so we did not find that any helpful to slow down the traffic and the only problem we found that it will slow the emergency vehicles down like police unbalanced fire okay and we don't want it to be slowed down to get to where we're going makes sense can I ask another question hey this is going back to mockingbird lane as you're redoing the streets some of these drive approaches on this street in bad shape some of them are brand new because of new construction are y'all gonna if they on the bad drive approaches are y'all gonna fix those where they're not collecting water and and mosquitoes and stuff during the summertime yes all all of those driveways that holding water and damage they will be replaced okay all right thank you I have a question I live on west six avenue and probably 10 10 years ago our street was redone and they did the they didn't put down concrete they what they called it was recycled asphalt and I am just wondering if they're going to redo it the way they did before or are they going to come in with a better surface because this thing it's worse now than when they repaired it several years ago yes sir we do not use the self-reused asphalt or recycled asphalt that's the ANEVA was a lot a lot of the city for tour what they did back then we just removed the top of two inches and we're putting new two inches because the base was still good now after 10 years the bases start to deteriorate and what we're doing we're going to go and mobilize the full depth of the the field like from the the surface going down 11 inches we're going to mix that with cement we're going to stabilize it and compact it and we'll put a new asphalt in top of it so we're okay so we're going 11 feet deep 11 inches so did you well you know on the 5800 block of westings because I live at 5700 I'm right in the middle of the block and the 5800 block when theirs was resurfaced they did that streak with concrete and then you you come across welch and we've got this recycled asphalt and it probably maybe about four years it started deteriorating and it's really bad right now I mean it I mean it is it's just a terrible streak to drive down it's even terrible now but anyway well I was just curious to what type of surface they're going to come back with and uh do you have a time frame on that yes let me ask the first answer the first part of comparing this street to the others with concrete the one with concrete those streets are goes through bond and those streets are has to every street has to compete but city-wide the left which is the select the worst of the worst in the city and what we do for this street now this is for ground run now this is through a maintenance that's why we're going to do it with concrete over with asphalt because it's different bomb or different farm okay so it will go back the way it was but that's okay but it's barbed because we're not just bathing but replacing the surface we go in deep 11 inches the 12 inches to treat the base okay yeah and I will I will last I will last much longer yeah for the timing at this time we don't know where which where the account the contract we're gonna start and hopefully we'll have probably in a week or two more information about the timing I will be happy to to send out or call everybody we have a brother's email who attended we have information that was going to send it to you to tell you you know maximum time when they come in but keep but but keep looking at the front door water door hang and that's when you're gonna let you know that's when we come in definitely okay okay well thank you very much for your time well Bob soon to follow up on what Richard was saying I'm sorry go ahead I have an additional question on Cotail it right in front of my house it's kind of a low place and every time it rain or water's running from the other end it stands right in front of my house so will you be doing anything for that uh you you're you're talking about within the those blocks right we live within this street we're gonna do right right right yeah yeah they'll be taking care of it man yeah you won't you won't have any water standard okay all right well thank you yes back to like what Richard the same question that Richard asked about the uh material that you're going to use uh on uh Lockingbird Lane are you going to go back with asphalt or are you going to go back with concrete it's all asphalt here like I said this is this is funded through a maintenance maintenance we don't do concrete the only thing if you don't do concrete has to go through the bond uh funding and that that will have to be voted only by the by the by the citizens and agreed to it and we have we have uh bond every four years and that's has to be voted by the citizens on it and uh some of those not really qualified for the bond the one that goes to the bond that really and most likely really excuse that you cannot drive on them anymore because you have a bunch of over all over the city yeah well I just didn't know because some of these bond elections that we have and then get passed they don't get spent till years later so I didn't know where we were fell into that situation yes now this is this uh funded through maintenance budget well that makes sense thank you very much so I'm assuming however with um digging down 11 inches deep that the stabilization of the foundation of the road should be better than what it has been is that correct absolutely man yes because it's going to be retreated and but you know it's not now because with time and you have lots of which are lots of war lots of uh heavy traffic on it and tracks to it in the midst of the base that's why you see lots of cracks and burrows and what have you so this is it be treated and it will last longer thank you thank you okay I have another question will we be getting new curbs and uh driveway approaches on on where is west six west six and only we're blessing damaged uh pieces we're not the best in hundred percent yeah you can see the last time they gave us all new curbs all the way up down both sides of the street and everyone got a new approach in their driveway so they may not have to replace the curbs or the approaches I don't know right yes sir what we do it's it's when we when we build the new streets like something going through the bomb we replace the hundred percent this is this is maintenance found and if the curb or the driveway is still in good shape it's not holding war we're not gonna replace it but if it's if it goes in problem or if it's damaged we will replace it okay thank you very much no one will you all have a good evening thank you what I needed to know thank you thank you very much I appreciate you y'all have a good night call us anytime you have the information if you have any question or thing any questions later on I have a question sure uh going back to uh Athenia and Slate at 400 Athenia can you show that design and tell me again um apparently you do you have a a photo of that corner there on Athenia and Slate uh where Slate starts this one the one with the U ship yeah this one yeah okay on this end of on the Athenia end of Slate he was talking about there's no curb on that side and it floods so is that going to be fixed at the same time yes ma'am we never we're gonna put the curb and we will eliminate uh any flooding or any issues okay but I just think concerned because you said if there wasn't a curb there already weren't replacing them right no no we're talking about the sidewalk there's no sidewalks so we're not adding sidewalks well yeah but we will reverse curb and garage and driveways yes ma'am okay all right thank you very much for your time this evening and for letting me dial in I appreciate it ma'am I can wait a minute ma'am thank you for joining I have a question um you had said that uh I'm on Athenia 400 Athenia and you said that the if I didn't have a sidewalk probably wouldn't get one because that falls in a bond package did you say fort capital or fort plan right the side the sidewalk has if we put sidewalk has to be for the entire street we don't just put portion of sidewalks so and like I said this is to both sidewalks that's under a different program as to go through the bond and has to be most of those sidewalks go into places like where school are you know if you have school or people walking into like a church or school or we do study and we see how many people using the road and walking so it has to compete with all other city it's leads in the city to qualify for sidewalk but for carpangar the reason we put carpangar fix the job we approach for drainage purposes so to eliminate who are going into anybody's yards yeah I noticed you know because there's like people building new houses and lots of new development or for anybody who's developed any new like building a house or a building or apartments in the area that's required by the city for the developer to install sidewalks that's what you see some new sidewalk within the within the approved lot any other questions I think the answer to all of mine I greatly appreciate you taking the time to do this you're welcome no problem so thank you so because we called in our joined in you you've got our email addresses so you'll be sending us some updates to our email addresses
