About this file

This document outlines requirements for a construction project to repair parking lots and drive areas at the VA Western New York Healthcare System campus in Buffalo, New York. The scope of work includes cold milling and removal of existing asphalt, installation of underground utilities, placement of asphalt binder and top courses, pouring new concrete curb and sidewalk, crack sealing, fog sealing, and installation of new pavement markings. Contractors must submit qualifications and safety plans by the specified due date and attend a pre-construction meeting prior to beginning work. The project is to be completed within four months of award according to an approved schedule and phasing plan, with most work taking place outside of normal business hours to minimize disruption. Status meetings will be held every two weeks, and the government will inspect construction periodically and require resolution of any non-compliant items.
