About this file
This is a technical specification document for the Restoration of Paved Surfaces section prepared for Bristol Borough in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in support of the 2026 CDBG Curb Ramp Program. The specification outlines comprehensive requirements for temporary and permanent paving, asphalt overlays, shoulder restoration, walkway reconstruction, driveway restoration, concrete curb and gutter repairs, stormwater inlet and piping work, and street signage reinstallation. All work must comply with Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) Publication 408 Specifications and related standards, including specifications for bituminous mixtures, bituminous materials, and temporary traffic control guidelines. The specification requires submission of certifications from material suppliers, PennDOT-approved Job Mix Formulas for bituminous concrete, and approved Mix Designs for concrete classes prior to work commencement. Temporary paving must be completed within ten working days of trench backfilling and maintained for a minimum of ninety days on state roads, while permanent paving must be maintained throughout the contract maintenance period to the satisfaction of the Resident Project Representative and applicable road departments.
The specification establishes detailed material requirements including Class AA concrete conforming to PennDOT Section 704, PennDOT Superpave bituminous materials for base, binder, leveling, and wearing courses, and specified aggregate standards. Concrete sidewalk reconstruction requires four-inch thickness on six-inch aggregate base, while driveway restoration specifies either six-inch reinforced concrete on four-inch aggregate or minimum two-inch asphalt wearing course on six-inch aggregate base, depending on existing surface type. All paving materials and aggregates require engineer approval through cut sheet submittals before placement. Traffic control measures must comply with Section 01 55 26 requirements and obtain necessary permits from PennDOT and local municipal agencies, with contractors responsible for restoring any existing pavement damaged by construction operations at their own expense.
