Re: Hoyle Tanner and Associates contract amendment for Nashua Canal pedestrian bridge
engineering services
In June 2016, the City entered into a contract for engineering services with Hoyle Tanner and
Associates for the pedestrian bridge over the Nashua Canal, with a crosswalk on Ledge Street
and a trail connection to the Heritage Rail Trail. This project is 80% funded by a NH
Department of Transportation grant with a 20% match from the City.
This contract amendment includes an additional $715 fee for geotechnical services not originally
budgeted for this project. The original boring location adjacent to Ledge Street had to be
relocated due to conflict with a large underground drainpipe. The boring done at this location
required five feet of rock coring not included in the original contract.
The additional fee associated with this contract amendment for geotechnical services is $715, of
that $143 is the match portion for which the City is responsible.
