About this file

Addendum No. 1 for the 2025 Street Program is issued by the City of Owosso, Michigan, with the city serving as both the owner and engineer of the project. This addendum, dated for the bid due date of October 8, 2024 at 3pm, formally adds a "2025 Street Program Questions" document to the contract documents. The addendum instructs prospective bidders to acknowledge receipt of this addendum in the "Signature Page and Legal Status" section of the bid proposal, with a warning that failure to do so may result in bid rejection.

The accompanying questions document addresses a technical specification concern regarding Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) performance grades for street approaches. A bidder raised a question about differing performance grades (PG) between mainline and approach sections for Howell and Lynn Streets, highlighting practical challenges with minimum tonnage and simultaneous paving. The city's response clarifies that PG 64-28 may be used for driveway approaches, effectively providing flexibility in asphalt performance grade selection to facilitate more straightforward and cost-effective bidding and construction processes.

2025 Street Program Questions

Q: The HMA application table for both Howell and Lynn Streets has the performance grade (PG) for the "HMA Approach" different from the PG for the mainline. PG 58-28 for the approach vs. PG 64-28 for the mainline.

With the very minimum tonnage for HMA Approaches, and the fact that it's under the same pay item, that's going to be VERY difficult. We'll be paving the approaches at the same time that we're paving the mainline, so we won't be able to differentiate the asphalt between the two. I respectively suggest that all asphalt performance grades be the same for cost effectiveness along with ease of ordering.

A: PG 64-28 may be used for driveway approaches.
