ATTACHMENT B
SCOPE OF WORK
The Engineer has prepared this Contract Agreement for services relative to the Nashua
Transit Center Retrofit Project. The project is anticipated to include an addition in the
rear of the building to accommodate a driver break area, improvements to the platform
roof, sidewalk improvernents, pavement reconstruction, drainage investigation and
upgrades, curb relocation and height adjustments, improved pedestrian access and traffic
patterns, and other miscellaneous improvements at the Transit Center.
The specific work items are further detailed as follows:
INITIAL PROJECT SCOPING COMPLETED
Prior to the commencement of any other work, the Consultant will meet with the City to
review the current and proposed layout of the site and building of the Transit Center.
From this meeting, a specific program will be developed consisting of all changes
discussed. These changes will be incorporated into a conceptual master plan for the
Transit Center and a detailed cost estimate will be developed for the City’s review. The
master plan will include improvements to the Transit Center site, building, and platform
roof canopy. It is assumed that the master plan will be developed using information
currently available, including but not limited to aerial imagery, GIS information, record
drawings, and base mapping previously prepared by the City.
The Consultant will meet with the City to review the master plan and associated detailed
cost estimate and discuss the project budget for construction of these improvements,
including engineer and construction services. Based on this budget, a scope of work will
be established to be included in this project or expand the project to include a study of
additional scope items that will require a larger budget to be implemented in the future.
This phase of the project will establish the scope of work for the remainder of the project.
The following is a brief outline of the work items anticipated to be required as a part of
this project, however this scope is anticipated to be further refined after completion of
this phase.
ENGINEERING / FEASIBILITY STUDY / PRELIMINARY PLANS
Once a scope of work is identified through the Initial Project Scoping, the Consultant will
prepare a detailed scope of work and associated fee. Generally, the scope of work to be
undertaken is anticipated to include the following work items.
Feasibility Study
The Consultant will undertake a feasibility study of the project. Items to be reviewed as
part of this are anticipated to include environmental, cultural, historical, archaeological,
hazardous waste, topographic, and architectural concerns or sensitivities that may arise as
the project progresses to construction. The study will be based on data available at the
time of the study, including any state- or citywide GIS information and plans and records
available from the City. The results will be summarized in a Feasibility Study and
delivered to the City for review and discuss, as necessary. Any permits necessary to
construct the improvements will also be included in the Feasibility Study.
