This is a Standard Specifications document for the Port of Seattle's 2026 Priority Paving project in Washington, establishing the technical requirements and construction standards for paving improvements across two distinct project areas on port property. The project encompasses Area A improvements along St Francis Lane adjacent to Buildings 2501, 2401, and 2601, and Area B improvements within Terminal 2 and along Harborside Drive adjacent to Buildings 2305 and 2155, with an additive alternate bid option for additional paving areas within Terminal 2. The specifications detail material requirements, construction procedures, testing protocols, and quality standards that contractors must follow in accordance with the Contract Plans and Contract Provisions. All work must comply with the referenced Standard Specifications, which cover aspects such as asphalt pavement composition, surface preparation, compaction requirements, and acceptance criteria to ensure project durability and performance standards.

The document establishes the technical framework and quality benchmarks that will govern contractor performance and material selection throughout the paving project. Specifications address Portland cement concrete and asphalt concrete mixtures, including gradation requirements, binder specifications, and mixing procedures, along with detailed subsurface preparation standards and equipment requirements. The standards include provisions for testing and inspection procedures, with specific attention to density requirements, surface smoothness, and thickness verification to ensure compliance with industry best practices and port specifications. Payment provisions are structured around the bid items and quantities established in the Contract Plans, with compensation contingent upon meeting all specified standards and passing required inspections and testing protocols.
