Talley Loop rehabilitation
project status
A full-depth reconstruction is planned for Talley Loop from Cullen Boulevard north to where the road bends west towards Garlic Creek Drive.
Contracted Firm: K Friese + Associates
Current Status:
MAJOR UPDATE DECEMBER 19, 2024: During the initial excavation of Talley Loop we discovered the original developer’s non-compliant construction of the roadway and the improper coverage of utilities (Water and Wastewater) in the road. This is the likely causation of the premature failure of the roadway the neighborhood experienced. As a result of the discovery, The City required the contractor to hold on work, pending the redesign of the roadway using an underlayment called geo-grid. The intent of this material is to bind with the base materials at the same dimensions as previously existed to provide lateral strength to the roadway. Our Geotechnical Engineers (GE) contacted the geo-grid manufacturer on Tuesday, December 17 to verify the performance of the material is suitable for the roadway. We apologize for the short-term inconvenience for the homeowners and motorists that are experiencing this temporary condition. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we strive to continue the project and provide you with a new roadway that will last the full 20-year designed life!
