RE: The construction, installation, maintenance and operation of two (2) 6 -feet wide sidewalks,
crossing the Cotton Belt Line, approximately 60 -feet east and 60 -feet west of the centerline of
Denton Tap Road South and within the right -of -way of the existing public road crossing, covered
under Street or Highway Easement No. 681, Mile Post 608.35, in Coppell, Dallas County, Texas.
Dear Mr. Phillips:
After further review of your October 17, 2011 letter regarding the above referenced project by our various
Departments, DART will process the "Standard Construction Agreement and Contractor's Right of
Entry" (CROE) to allow the City of Coppell's contractor (3D Paving and Contracting, LLC) to construct
the sidewalks through the DART rail corridor. The CROE should be sent to the contractor within the next
two weeks.
The Fort Worth & Western Railroad ( "FWWR ") is noted in the CROE as a contact for all work
performed within the railroad corridor. Additionally, FWWR has required appropriate pedestrian warning
signs placed in each quadrant, as indicated in the attached sheet called "Pedestrian Crossing - signage" and
pavement markers on the sidewalks.
Mr. George Marshall, P.E. has been communicating with FWWR regarding signage and pavement
markers, so he should be aware of the requirements.
If you have any additional comments, please contact Shannon Gray at (214) 749 -2794 or via e-mail at
sgray@dart.org.
Yours tru y,
Thomas Neville
Senior Manager

WITNESSETH:

enter upon the property of DART on a tract of right of way of the Cotton Belt Line located at
Denton Tap Road, Mile Post 608.35, in Coppell, Dallas County, Texas, as may be necessary in
connection with the installation of two (2) 6 -feet wide sidewalks, crossing the Cotton Belt Line,
located approximately 60 -feet east and 60 -feet west of the centerline of Denton Tap Road South
and within the right of way of the existing public road crossing, as shown in Exhibit "A" drawing
dated July 2010, attached hereto and incorporated herein. The work is to be performed on DART

Contract and all work to be performed thereunder is subject to the terms and conditions contained
in Street or Highway Easement No. 681, dated the 20th day of September, 1988, issued by the St.

catastrophic event could cause equipment, people or materials to enter into the foul zone
unless the above mentioned flagger(s) are present.
(c) Ensure, at Contractor's expense, that all personnel working under their control that are
engaged in any activity that requires flagger(s), as described in Item 2(b) above, have
within the last 365 days from the date the work is to be performed, attended a creditable
Roadway Worker Protection course and have successfully passed all required
examinations associated with that course and will provide proof of course completion upon
request from DART or their representative. Whether or not the above mentioned
Roadway Worker Protection course is creditable is at the sole discretion of Railroad.
(d) Contractor is required to (a) notify Railroad at least fifteen (15) working days before
commencing work on DART premises and (b) notify DART and Railroad within five (5)
working days after such work is completed. Notification shall be in accordance with
