Background and Discussion:
Construction of 10' wide trail along Fairmont Parkway from Armand Bayou Hike and Bike Trailhead to Red Bluff Drive, with a pedestrian bridge at Armand Bayou (B100-00-00). Proposed trail includes upgraded audio pedestrian signals, crosswalks, and ramps at signalized intersections at Center Street and Red Bluff Drive.

This change order is submitted to address the unforeseen need to remove the existing pedestrian signal light located at Red Bluff Road and Fairmont Parkway. This removal was not included in the original contract scope due to an omission during the initial project planning phase. This change will add additional amount of $4,238.03 and no additional days.

Expected Impact:
Increase the total cost for the contract.

Alternative Options:
No action will result in substandard construction.

Alignment with Goal(s):
