SUBJECT
Consider adoption of an ordinance of the City of Denton, a Texas home-rule municipal corporation,
authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with McMahon Contracting and Construction, LLC dba
McMahon Contracting, L.P., for the construction of Westgate Drive Phase 1 Improvement Project for the
Capital Projects Department; providing for the expenditure of funds therefor; and providing an effective
date (CSP 8777 – awarded to McMahon Contracting and Construction, LLC dba McMahon Contracting,
L.P., in the not-to-exceed amount of $3,914,087.57). The Public Utilities Board recommends approval (6-
0).
STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
This action supports Key Focus Area: Enhance Infrastructure and Mobility.
INFORMATION/BACKGROUND
The Westgate Capital Project’s original scope included improving the traffic flow by making a full
connection of several street segments including, Bronco Way (Bonnie Brae to the I-35 frontage road),
Westgate Dr. (Winsor to Bronco Way). The original scope also included making Windsor Dr. a full four-
lane connection from Bonnie Brae to I-35 frontage road. However, due to the complexity and extended
timeline, it was requested by the City Manager's Office to separate the Bronco Way segment as an
independent project to expedite completion, allowing traffic from the new Denton High School direct access
to the I-35 frontage road.
The decision to separate the project was driven by the urgent need to start construction for the critical
connection of Bronco Way between Bonnie Brae and I-35 frontage road before the start of the 2025-2026
school year in August 2025. The roadway improvements are essential for addressing safety and congestion
concerns, particularly during school drop-off and pick-up times. By isolating this segment into Westgate
Phase I, the project will focus resources and efforts to ensure these improvements start without being
delayed by the broader scope of the original project. Phase I has an anticipated construction start of Q3
2025 with final completion in Q2 2026.
The remaining segments from the original scope will be competed with the future project Westgate Phase
II. Design for Phase II has been completed, and staff are currently working to acquire all the right-of-way
necessary to complete Phase II. Construction is anticipated to start in 2027.
