Subject: Southwestern Blvd Construction
Bridge beams will be set on the new bridge being constructed on Southwestern Blvd. tomorrow (12/15/2009). This activity
will take most of the day. Trucks will begin arriving in town as early as 4:30am. Each truck will carry one beam, and there
will be a total of 18 trucks. Each beam is approximately 50 feet long.
Twelve trucks will stage on the south side of Southwestern Blvd. between Coppell Road and Freeport Parkway. I have
instructed them to extend their construction barricades to encompass the staged trucks, and to remain clear of the fire
station driveways and fire hydrants. Six additional trucks will stage on the south side of Airline Drive west of Belt Line
Road. These trucks should also be barricaded. Trucks will then move into position one at a time.
Beam placement will begin at approximately 8:30am and last through approximately 2:30pm. During this time traffic flow
will be restricted. Flaggers will be used to stop traffic while the beams are being moved, then one lane at a time will be
allowed to pass. In the event of an emergency response, every effort will be made to expedite emergency apparatus
through the work area.
The construction inspector for this project is Rick O'Dell, and he will be on site during this activity. He can be reached on
his cell phone at 469-576-7709.
If you have any questions, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me on my cell phone at 469-576-0664, or via
email.
