Action Requested:
Approve a professional services agreement with Wade Trim in order to provide engineering design services related to the Chandler Road and Keller Parkway Intersection Improvements in the amount of $99,814.00.

This project would widen Chandler Road at the intersection with Keller Parkway, increase the turning radii and include pedestrian upgrades. The scope of the contract includes coordination with TxDOT, a traffic study, engineering design, bid phase assistance and construction phase assistance.
