Owasso accepts East A100/16th Street improvements; authorizes $431,771.71 final payment
Summary
The council accepted the East A100 and 16th Street North roadway improvements, awarded final payment of $431,771.71 to Crossland Heavy Contractors and recorded a final contract amount of $16,889,103.34, a contract under‑run of $497,896.66, city staff said.
The Owasso City Council on Jan. 8 accepted the East A100 and 16th Street North roadway improvements (Mingo Road) and authorized a final payment of $431,771.71 to Crossland Heavy Contractors Inc., bringing the final contract total to $16,889,103.34 and recording a contract underrun of $497,896.66.
Public works staff member Earl Ferris summarized the project scope and financials, saying the Feb. 2023 contract originally awarded to Crossland Heavy Contractors covered widening the roadway to four lanes with turn lanes, landscaped medians, bike lanes, sidewalks, an 8‑foot multi‑use trail, relocation of storm drains and water and sanitary sewer infrastructure, and added traffic signalization at the North 97th East Avenue intersection. “If authorized, final payment of $431,771.71 will result in a final contract amount of … $16,889,103.34, which is a contract under run of $497,896.66,” Ferris said.
Ferris told the council that work was completed in November 2024 and inspected by city staff, and that funding for the final payment is available in the Vision Recapture Fund. The council approved acceptance of the project and the final payment by voice/roll call.
Council discussion included clarifications about where the multi‑use trail and bike lanes are located along the corridor; Ferris and other staff explained that the 8‑foot multi‑use trail runs on one side of the road with sidewalks on the other side and that on‑road bike lanes are provided along curves in the roadway. Ferris also reported cumulative figures across three contracts for the broader corridor work: from State Highway 169 to Mingo Road the three contracts totaled about $35.37 million with an aggregate underrun of roughly $11.52 million, which staff attributed to conservative allowances and fewer required overruns than anticipated.
The final payment and project acceptance will close the contract with Crossland Heavy Contractors Incorporated of Tulsa, Oklahoma, and staff said they will return any administrative items as needed to reconcile final accounting.
