Body
BACKGROUND
Dallas Love Field has developed a Five-Year Airside Capital Improvement Program. This program is based on the results of the Love Field Pavement Evaluation Study performed in 2017 and on the requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which showed that all existing taxiways and connectors located on the west side of the terminal are reaching the end of their useful life. In addition, it is necessary to reconfigure and reconstruct the taxiways and connectors to conform to current FAA safety standards.
Garver, LLC provided design documents and will be providing construction administration services for the Crossfield Taxiways Project at Dallas Love Field. In the design Garver reconfigured the current taxiways D and E, to make more efficient and safer movements of aircrafts. During the design, the Department of Aviation coordinated an agreement with the FAA to provide financial grants. FAA Grants 3-48-0062-061-2021 and 3-48-0062-061-2021 will be used to assist in the necessary improvements of the Crossfield Taxiways Project.
This action will authorize a construction contract with Flatiron Constructors, Inc. for the construction of the Crossfield Taxiways at Dallas Love Field. This project will include the construction of Crossfield Taxiways between the existing Taxiway M and Taxiway C and connecting taxiways, construction of the proposed Remains Over Night (RONs) and Deicing areas, analysis of the location of the Run-up Area to recommend relocation/reconfiguration.
