The adjustment accounts for changes in scope due to unforeseen field conditions and changes in the scope of work that resulted in additional pay items and work. The additional scope included additional traffic signs and pipe guardrail requested by the City of Houston to enhance pedestrian safety.
Fiscal Impact: The contract value increased by $41,923.
