Analysis
On Tuesday, August 18, 2020, the City of Grand Prairie opened bids for Dickey Road Storm Drain Improvements West of S.W. 3rd Street. The low bidder is La Banda, LLC in the total bid amount of $2,139,761.00.
This project was identified as part of the FY19 Capital Projects Budget and Capital Projects Plan for proposed drainage improvements extending from SW 3rd Street to Indian Hills Drive. During the design process it was determined that the existing water and wastewater mains were old and that it was prudent to replace the water main (from SW 3rd Street to Shawnee Trace) and wastewater mains (from Dawson Circle to Ralph Street and at street crossings to connect to existing mains) in conjunction with the storm drain improvement project. The Dickey Road Storm Drain Improvements West of S.W. 3rd Street, project provides for underground storm drainage, water and wastewater improvements to replace old water and wastewater lines in Dickey Road and provides a 100-year storm capacity storm drainage system in Dickey Road between SW 3rd Street and Indian Hills Drive.
The Dickey Road Storm Drain Improvements West of S.W. 3rd Street project is part of the City-Wide Master Drainage Plan for storm drainage improvements in the Indian Hills area of the City.
This project provides for installation 1500 linear feet of 36-inch diameter reinforced concrete pipe, 2450 linear feet of 8-inch diameter water main pipe, 960 linear feet of 8-inch diameter wastewater main pipe, over 5600 square yards of concrete pavement panel replacement to ensure a good connection to existing pavement due to otherwise multiple cuts and existing pavement condition, 165 cubic yards of unclassified channel excavation, 12 street curb inlets with sizes ranging from 5 feet to 20 feet and other items necessary for construction as detailed in the plans and specifications owned properties.
