About this file
This is a Project Utility Coordination Form issued by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) Highway Division for bridge preservation work on the Fourth Street bridge over Interstate 195 in Fall River, Massachusetts (Proposal No. 614090-134822). The project involves coordination of utility relocations necessary for bridge preservation work on the Fourth Street structure, with utilities including Liberty Gas (underground gas lines) and National Grid Electric (aerial lines). The scope of utility work includes abandoning existing 8-inch and 12-inch cast steel gas lines, adjusting gas gates, and installing approximately 50-100 feet of proposed 8-inch gas main in a 12-inch carrier pipe. The contractor must provide 30 days advance notice to utility companies prior to commencing work, with a required 7-calendar-day advance notification to the District Construction Office to validate progress. The estimated project value is $1.885 million, with proposals due July 28, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. through www.bidx.com.
The contractor is responsible for providing safe and unimpeded access to utilities, including snow removal, clearing and grubbing, guard rail removal, barrier removal, tree removal, and grading as necessary to facilitate utility relocations. The form identifies Liberty Gas as the primary underground utility contact (Matthew Sullivan, Matthew.Sullivan@libertyutilities.com) and notes that utility work is non-reimbursable with no force account agreement in place. Gas line work is subject to seasonal restrictions and cannot be installed between November 15 and March 15. Only pre-qualified contractors in the BRIDGE-CONSTRUCTION category are eligible to bid, and a Proposal Guaranty equal to 5 percent of the bid value is required. The contract is subject to Massachusetts prevailing wage rates and price adjustments for materials including hot mix asphalt, Portland cement mixtures, diesel fuel, gasoline, and structural and reinforcing steel, with electronic submission required through www.bidx.com and COMMBUYS prohibited for this project.

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.
** Assumed Duration, Not Provided By Utility Company.
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).
"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.
"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).
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.
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 #).
