PASSED ANDAPPROVED THIS 24thDAYOFJune, 2021. _______________________________ Karl Mooney, Mayor ATTEST: _________________________________ Tanya Smith, City Secretary(Seal) Exhibit "A" The projects to be financed that are the subject of this Statement are: Holleman Drive W at Jones Butler Road Roundabout($605,000) This project includes the construction of a new roundabout at the intersection of Holleman Drive West and Jones Butler Street. During a 2016 analysis, College Station Traffic Engineering found that this intersection meets traffic signal warrants within the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The intersection ranks 6th out of 14 intersections that meet at least one warrant and this intersection is ranked 2nd for streets maintained only by the City of College Station (i.e. non-TxDOT roads). Traffic engineering recommends the construction of a roundabout instead of a traffic signal at this location in order to obtain the same mobility benefits without the continuing maintenance costs of a traffic signal.
