General General General

The project's scope of work includes utility crossings under existing railroad tracks. What is the name of the railroad company operating this track?

How many trains per day can we expect?

Are there any

Railroad Protective

Insurance requirements?

Please see continuation sheet provided with

Amendment 0003.

The Contractor will obtain a Physical

Alteration Permit from

RIDOT prior to performing any work within the RIDOT right-of-way or affecting

RIDOT infrastructure.

Work impacting railroad facilities will be coordinated in advance with both the Old Colony

& Newport Railway and the Newport Dinner

Train, with Dan Carlin serving as the primary point of contact for railroad operations.

Daily train activity is limited. For bidding purposes assume railroad protective insurance is required.
