Re: Contract for Construction Engineering Services for Park and Ride
The City of Nashua was awarded a NH Department of Transportation (NH DOT)
Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) program grant in fiscal year 2012, to design
and construct a new Park and Ride facility located at 25 Crown Street. This Park and
Ride facility will allow for ride sharing and would also provide parking for a passenger
rail station in the future. The City purchased the property at 25 Crown Street in 2012
using funds from this grant for the purpose of developing this Park and Ride facility.
In compliance with the NH DOT funding for this project, the selection of an engineering
firm followed the Local Public Agency rules through a Request for Qualifications
process, with McFarland Johnson being selected. Due to the expedited timeframe for
this project the construction engineering services, required to ensure construction meets
all requirements, were also included in the original RFQ.
NH DOT has approved an amendment to McFarland Johnson’s original contract to
provide construction engineering services to complete the project. The amended
contract totals $169,229.11. The Community Development Division would like
recommend approval of the contract extension to McFarland Johnson to complete
construction engineering services for the completion of the 25 Crown Street park and
ride project.
