title

Request for approval of change in contract with Wadecon, LLC, Wallisville Rd. Intersection Improvements - FM 2100 to Wade Rd., an addition of $36,561.01, adding 86 calendar days, Job No. 20/0173-1, Precinct 2.

Background and Discussion:

 

 Intersection improvements at three locations along Wallisville Rd. This change includes $2.6k for temporary drainage pipe, $16.2k for 2 additional driveways, $7.4k for modification of storm sewer to eliminate manholes in the intersection, $2.5k for concrete to asphalt transition and $7.7k for pipe size increase to match existing. It also includes the following additional time: 5 days for the unusual freezing weather, 16 days multiple utility delays, 26 days for the reduction in work hours at the adjacent school request, 30 days for an intersection modification, 2 days for the additional asphalt tie-in work, 3 days for pipe size increase and 4 days for the additional driveways.

 

 

Expected Impact:

 

 Changes will allow the project to drain during construction, allow installation of safe and sustainable intersection pavement, restore existing driveways and install a smooth concrete/asphalt pavement interface. Additional time allows the contractor the additional time to complete these additional tasks.

Additional funds required for the change order will be provided by Precinct 2.

 

 

Alternative Options:

Eliminate the driveways that existed before the project, allow manholes within the intersection, allow roadway flooding during construction and install an asphalt to concrete interface that requires additional maintenance. Time: eliminate these additional items or assess Liquidated Damages for issues beyond the contractor’s control.
