BID Specs: Fire Station, 42 Leverett Road, Parking Lot Paving project.

A base coat of at least 1 1/2'” thickness shall be applied and rolled, with a top coat of at least 1 ½” applied and rolled, or as recommended by the bidder/contractor. The base coat shall be rolled and allowed to set overnight before top coat is applied thus requiring the project to be performed over a two day period.

All existing old blacktop material will be removed and hauled away by the Town Highway Department. Final grading and preparation will also be done by the Town Highway Department prior to new paving being started. Confirmation of grade (especially at apparatus bay doors) is the responsibility of the contractor being awarded the bid and should be performed before any paving is started.
All work performed, either by the Town or the contractor, shall comply with the Conservation Commission’s Order of Conditions titled Attachment ‘A’ “DOA Special Conditions 07.08.2021”
