Summary

This is a Project Utility Coordination (PUC) Form for the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) Highway Division related to Proposal No. 611940-136645, a bridge replacement project in Somerville, Massachusetts. The document details the relocation and coordination of multiple utility systems required for the replacement of the Webster Avenue bridge over the MBTA and Boston & Maine Railroad (BMRR). The project involves extensive coordination among numerous utility companies including Eversource Electric and Gas, Verizon, Comcast, MBTA systems, MWRA, NGrid, AT&T, and various municipal departments. The scope encompasses relocation of electrical duct banks, gas mains, water and sewer lines, telecommunications conduits, and PTC (Positive Train Control) cable systems. The document establishes a phased approach with multiple sequential and concurrent utility relocation tasks, including advance work, temporary pole installations, underground-to-overhead conversions, and final installations following bridge demolition and reconstruction. The project involves seven utility poles to be relocated, with work scheduled between February 2024 and August 2026.

The utility relocation work is structured across two main stages with multiple phases and tasks, with estimated durations ranging from one to 208 work days depending on the specific utility operation. Key requirements include obtaining MBTA Utility Licenses, Eversource Grants of Location, street opening permits, and compliance with the 8M permit for work affecting MWRA facilities. The contractor must provide seven calendar days advance notification before utility mobilization and comply with seasonal restrictions on gas line work (prohibited November 15 to March 15). Critical coordination includes winter bypass requirements for gas service, temporary shoring and support systems during bridge demolition, tree trimming by line clearance qualified personnel, and comprehensive traffic control and access provisions. The document indicates that utilities will work concurrently where feasible and establishes clear responsibility assignments between the contractor, utility companies, MassDOT, and the City of Somerville for each task component.

Access - Unless otherwise noted in the Contract, and in addition to the 'enabling' notes above, the Contractor must provide safe and unimpeded access (for trucks, lifts, cranes, etc.) to the Utilities, to allow for the proposed relocation(s) - including but not limited to snow removal, clearing and grubbing, guard rail removal, barrier removal, tree removal, and grading. Any costs associated with these tasks are deemed to be incidental to the project.

For all MassDOT construction contracts issued after January 2014, the new Utility Coordination/documentation specification is required. This is Section 8.14 in Design-Bid-Build Contracts (see Design-Build index reference for applicable section #).

Prior to starting any and all enabling work for Utilities, the Contractor is to plan in advance with submittals and approved durations.

* Potential District Initiated Early Utility Relocation - if noted herein, the District reserves the right to initiate early utility relocation in advance of the Contract NTP. In submitting a bid price and in the development/basis of the Baseline Schedule, the Contractor shall not plan the Work with the potential benefit of any form of 'early utility relocation.' As a requirement of the Baseline submission, unless otherwise noted in this Specification, the earliest that the first Utility company is to receive the 30 days advance notification to mobilize to the site, will be 7 calendar days after the pre-construction meeting and never sooner than 7 days after the Contract NTP.

"Potential Access Restraints" noted within this PUC Form are for planning purposes. See MassDOT Contract for Contractual Access Restraints (refer to Subsections 8.02, 8.03, and/or 8.06 for Design Bid Build Contracts and Volume II Section 9 for Design Build Contracts).

Utility non-work periods - For planning purposes, the durations above contain some non work days (contingency) for New England conditions (precipitation, high temperatures, low temperatures, snow, ice). Gas line work however, typically has a seasonal restriction and can NOT be installed from 15-November to 15-March. Municipally Owned Electric and Gas Utilities are also restricted from proceeding from 15-November to 15-March. The Contractor shall (and the CTD plan) reflect this calendar restriction within the schedule (unless otherwise note).

IMPORTANT BASIS NOTES - FOR CONTRACTOR

Sub-Total

"Concurrent Utilities" operations noted herein, are to signify those Utility Company operations that can be worked concurrently (e.g. Utility A and Utility B work on-site together) - MassDOT and the Contractor are to prepare NTPs to Utilities accordingly.

Unless otherwise specified in the MassDOT Construction Contract, or unless specifically noted within this PUC Form, these durations (herein) are based upon the Contractor providing unimpeded access to the Utility company to perform Utility relocations (see Note 5 - Access).
