About this file
This document is an Addendum No. 1 issued by Harris County Purchasing Agent for a construction contract (Job No. 25/0242) for Sidewalks and Related Items at Various Locations in Harris County Precinct 4. The addendum, dated August 12, 2025, revises two key documents: the General Conditions for Roads, Bridges and Related Work and the BidTable. The due date for bid submission is Monday, August 18, 2025, by 2:00 p.m. local time in Houston, TX. The contract is an on-call contract, meaning specific site layouts will be issued by Harris County on a task order basis during the contract term, with the current bid package providing standard details and anticipated work items for pricing purposes.
The addendum includes two primary modifications: first, work hours are clarified to be between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. CST, with lane closures permitted only between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.; second, the estimated quantities for sign-related items are adjusted, with Item 128 (Signs) increasing from ten (10) to fifty (50) each, and Item 129 (Signs) increasing from twenty-five (25) to 360 square feet. The document also addresses vendor questions about the contract's nature, confirming it is not a night work contract and explaining the difference between the two sign-related pay items based on their measurement units.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS PER ADDENDUM NO. 1
1. Question: The plan shows only details but no layouts. The bid sheet task description does not match the plans. Please advise.
Answer: This is an on-call contract, and as such, the plans only provide standard details applicable to various future work locations. Site-specific layouts are not included in the bid package and will be issued by Harris County on a task order basis during the contract term.
The bid sheet includes anticipated work items and quantities for pricing purposes only.
Actual scope, quantities, and layouts will be defined in individual work orders assigned by the County after contract award. Refer to the Scope of Work and Construction Notes in the bid documents for clarification.
2. Question: Page 3 of the bid document, "General Conditions for Roads, Bridges and Related Work" says "Work at the Site shall be performed between 6:00pm and 6:00am, any day Monday through
Friday..." Does this mean the work on this contract is night work?
Answer: This project is not a night work contract. Daytime work is expected, except where otherwise approved by Harris County. Per the “Traffic Control & Traffic Signal” section on page 5 of the attachment titled General Notices, Notes and Information, under Supporting
Documentation inside Bonfire, the project-specific working hours are clearly stated as follows: “All work shall be performed between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. Lanes may only be closed between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.” The document has been corrected.
3. Question: What is the difference between Pay Item #128 "SIGNS" and Pay Item #129 "SIGNS"?
Answer: The difference is in the unit of measurement:
• Item #128 (636.01) – Measured per each (EA): for standard small signs.
• Item #129 (636.02) – Measured per square foot (SF): for larger or custom-sized signs.
