2019 Paving Program — Change Order No. 2
Sidewalk Repairs for ADA Compliance at South Main Street Roundabout
To approve Change Order No. 2 to the 2019 Paving Program contract with Brox
Industries of Dracut, MA in an amount not-to-exceed $94,510 for the construction
of ADA compliant sidewalks on South Main Street funded through the Southeast
Quadrant Fund. Funding will be through Department: 160 Admin/Engineering;
Fund: Trust; Account Category: 54 Property Services
Sidewalks abutting the South Main Street Roundabout are on heavily traveled
pedestrian routes due to proximity to Rivier University and Hayward’s Ice Cream.
These pedestrian routes are currently not compliant with the American with
Disabilities Act (ADA).
The proposed work consists of the construction of ADA compliant ramps and
landings (with detectable warning devices}, and the repair of several severely
cracked sidewalk panels. A total of 6 ramps will be reconstructed to meet current
ADA standards along with adjacent panels.
The work will supplement paving work at the roundabout. Brox Industries is
currently under contract for the 2019 Paving Program and has successfully
completed sidewalk repair projects of similar size and scope.
