The Tampa Tribune from Tampa, Florida • 10

2-NS The Tampa Tribune Tuesday. January 26, 1988 Northwest Expressway design contract OK'd By DAVID SZYMANSKI Tribune Staff Writer CITRUS PARK Hillsborough County expressway officials Monday approved more than $367,000 in design and consulting contracts for the planned Northwest Expressway. Members of the Tampa-Hillsbor-ough County Expressway Authority voted unanimously to pay $103,363 to Tampa engineering firm Howard Needles Tammen Bergendoff for general consultant services on the expressway. A total of $264,292 went to seven engineering firms for design work. Work by an eighth engineering firm, Post Buckley Schuh Jerrii-gan has been delayed.

That 2-mile design section parallels Eisenhower Boulevard from south of Hillsborough Avenue to Spruce Street. That work was on hold because negotiations with Tampa International Airport on how to avoid conflicts between the expressway and a planned fourth airport runway beside Eisenhower are unsettled. Airport officials are unsure about the exact location for the runway, said Harry Bertossa, engineer for Howard Needles. Despite the holdup, Ray Speer, executive director of the authority. said engineering work will continue on the section not affected by the airport's plans.

Speer said he is confident that design work on that section would not hold up work on the overall project, expected to open by 1992. The authority also approved $12,700 in legal and tide fees for work on the properties in the path of the 17-mile expressway. There are some 400 parcels of land owned by residents and businesses along the path of the proposed $319 million toll road, said William C. McLean the Expressway Authority's lawyer. The road runs roughly from Dale Mabry Highway north of Van Dyke Road to Interstate 275 a half-block north of Kennedy Boulevard.

Bertossa said design work on the expressway divided among seven firms continues on schedule and 30 percent of the work should be done next month. When 30 percent of the design work is done, the authority can file a right-of-way map with the Hillsborough Circuit Court Clerk to prevent property owners along the route from developing their land.
