Summary
Hurst City will partner with Tarrant County on a mill-and-overlay program covering segments of Hurstview Drive and Glade Road and authorized a $50,000 purchase of road maintenance materials from Martin Marietta under the county's interlocal agreement.
Hurst City Council authorized the city manager to enter an interlocal agreement with Tarrant County for the 2025 street overlay program and approved a purchase of road maintenance materials from Martin Marietta Materials under an existing interlocal agreement.
Public works staff said the city and county partnership commonly reduces costs for mill-and-overlay projects. The city identified two segments for 2025: Hurstview Drive from Harwood Drive to Circle View South (approximately 1,700 linear feet) and Glade Road from west of David to east of Hurstview Drive (about 1,100 linear feet). The work will include typical milling and overlay and base stabilization with cement or lime and hot-mix asphalt surfacing.
Staff noted Tarrant Regional Water District has identified a potential leak in a main line in the Glade Road area; staff will coordinate with TRWD to avoid overlaying a segment that may need later excavation for repairs.
Council also authorized procurement of cement slurry and cementitious slurry products from Martin Marietta Materials through Tarrant County's purchasing contract for up to $50,000. Both actions passed by voice vote.
Why it matters: The overlays maintain pavement condition on arterial and collector streets and are part of FY25 budgeted projects; coordinating with TRWD is intended to avoid rework if utilities require repairs. Procuring materials through the county's contract is a standard procurement approach to gain volume pricing and comply with state purchasing law.
Staff said work timing and exact start dates will be coordinated with the contractor and county.
