Question
Date:

The proposal references Spec. No. 302. However, there is a Jack and Bore SP302-000120-00 in the contract. One of the major differences is that the Contract SP INCLUDES ALL OBSTRUCTIONS. 1. Which specification applies to the contract pay item. 2. Are obstructions to be included in the bid unit price? 3. Is rock considered to be an obstruction? Or will it be paid per the VDOT Standard Specification 302?
Answer
Date:
4/23/2025 9:24:45 PM
SP302-000120-00 notes that the item includes all costs including obstructions. Rock would be considered an obstruction and should be included int the cost.

Inset D
Type:
Plan
Question
Date:
4/11/2025 3:20:04 PM
Inset D on 9981-060-862 Plan Sheet 2A(2) for station 28+50 to 38+50 shows existing grade, an unlabeled section, a layer of geotextile fabric, 20" of dry riprap class A1, and 6" No. 1 aggregate. No where in the cross sections from existing grade to the proposed finish grade is it greater than 2'. In some cases it is 1 foot or less. Does the department intend for the existing ditch to be excavated to install the proposed section or geotextile placed on the existing ditch, 20" of dry riprap class A1 and 6" of No. 1? This second option would raise the proposed grade from what is indicated on the cross section. There is no indication of excavation in the cross sections. Any excavation in this area would likely be rock. Please clarify.
