Department Project Title Project Number
Public Works Rufe Snow Dr. Street & Utility Imp. (Mid-Cities to Hightower)[TEA-21] ST0202
Project Description
This project widens approximately 5,300 feet of the existing 5-lane thoroughfare to 7-lanes. This section of Rufe Snow Drive will be
reconstructed as a concrete street with sidewalks along both sides, signalization improvements at the major intersections and all
necessary water and sewer main adjustments. The funding for design will be provided by the 1994 Bond Program and Federal
Grants (TEA-21). The funding for the construction phase of this project will come from the 2003 Bond Program and Federal Grants.

Project Justification
The development that has taken place in recent years in Northeast Tarrant County has caused traffic volumes to increase along this
section of Rufe Snow. Currently, the traffic counts are 29,355 vehicles per day. This area of Rufe Snow is also adjacent to
commercial property. Additional lanes are needed for this section of Rufe Snow to reduce traffic congestion. Since this project will be
coordinated with Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), all schedules are subject to change by TxDOT. Like any other
TxDOT project, this project will also be subject to state and federal reviews, an environmental assessment and a public hearing
meeting will need to be conducted.
Note: The 2003 general obligation bonds are supported by the Utility Fund fee revenue. The $7,562,000 identified in "Federal/State
Grants" represents $600,000 from the Tarrant County Bond Program and $6,962,000 from NCTCOG grants. The 2008-09 General
Obligation Bonds include $3,600,000 from the North Tarrant Parkway 2003 Bond Election project authorization. For FY 2015
funding is from Certificates of Obligation as well as grants and reserves funding from General CIP project savings and general
project savings.
