32. Section 301 & 315 Specs May 6 2025 at 5:38 PM

Anonymous May 6 2025 at 5:38 PM
User information is private
It appears that the version of section 301 and 315 in the bid documents wants the contractor to apply a single 89 surface treatment layer or OGI as the curing method on roads that are greater than or equal to 400 ADT. Doing this instead of just using prime coat and sand will dramatically increase costs for this project and extend the completion for the project. Can the County please allow the contractor to use prime coat and sand on all FDR streets as the curing method?
May 15 2025 at 8:56 AM
Henry County
For this contract, prime and sand will be accepted for all FDR roads.

The Prime Coat Quantity appears to be overstated as there is enough quantity for more than every road. Can the County please adjust this quantity for only the roads that will require the Prime Coat? Assuming wet curing is allowed on the smaller roads.
May 15 2025 at 8:56 AM
Henry County
Wet curing will be allowed for subdivision roads. The quantity will remain the same in the event that we need to utilize the maximum spread application for the other roads.
