Analysis
The Texas Department of Transportation, hereinafter TxDoT has advised the City of Grand Prairie, Texas, hereinafter Grand Prairie, that the responsibility and the charges for the City’s maintenance and operation of traffic signals at certain locations along State Highway 360 have been suspended during the time that the State’s contractor, Lane Abrams Joint Venture, hereinafter Lane Abrams, and its contractors and subcontractors are constructing the SH 360 project, until the final acceptance of such project. It has become apparent to Grand Prairie and Lane Abrams that in certain situations, specifically the loss of power to the traffic signals during storms or other outages, that Grand Prairie can more quickly respond and provide generators to restore the operations of such traffic signals until normal electrical power is restored. Grand Prairie and Lane Abrams have agreed that in spite of the suspension of the agreement between TxDoT and Grand Prairie for the reimbursement for the operation and maintenance of traffic signals within a municipality, that Grand Prairie should respond and install generators at the signals, notifying Lane Abrams or their contractors or subcontractors, and continue to operate the traffic signals until the power is restored or until Lane Abrams or its subcontractors can respond.
Financial Consideration
No financial impact to the City.
