Each median opening, turn lane and signalized intersection was discussed in depth. The design team informed the committee that TXDOT was working on detailed traffic analysis on each signalized intersection to determine current and future needs. The final design will be based on the complete build out of developed and undeveloped areas. Design speed for the Colleyville portion will be 40 miles per hour. The committee expressed an interest in bridge design. Teague, Jones and Hilton told the committee that TXDOT has several different designs for bridges and embraces creative differences for a particular bridge using grillwork or abutments. All of these items, like the landscaping, will be negotiated between the city and TXDOT based on the city's participation. Drainage improvements on the final roadway will be built for the 25-year storm per TXDOT standards. TXDOT's standards are higher than the city's so this design actually equates to a design for the 50-year storm. The underground culvert system being designed should significantly help with the recent flooding events several committee members had experienced. Other concerns were discussed regarding specific businesses that will be affected by the improvements. The design team will be meeting with businesses that will be most significantly impacted one-on-one before the public meeting in May. The committee discussed the role of the citizens committee in assisting the design team in its public process. The group decided another meeting would be warranted before the public hearing, which is tentatively scheduled for mid-May.
