1. CLARIFICATION OF CONTRACTOR QUESTION
Question: In reference to Sample Task Order #2 - Resurface 6.5 Miles of Historic Suitland Parkway we
have the following questions:
There appears to conflicting instruction given on Sheet B01 and E-58 to E-67. for the work to be performed
East Bound Station 248+00 to 297+00; West Bound Sta 251+50 to 297+00 and MD Route 337 Sta 285+95
to 297+81.43. On Sheet B01 - Full Depth Asphalt Pavement Reconstruction it shows half of the roadway
being milled and resurfaced the other half being reconstructed full depth including curb and gutter. On
Drawings E-58 to E-67 the drawings show the entire width of the roadway being reconstructed and
selective sections of the curb and gutter to replaced. Please clarify.
RESPONSE: The typical section shows the full depth patch varies in width. The left side shows
the existing pavement and the right side shows the full depths patch. The width of the existing
patch is shown on the plan sheets. The curb and gutter is to be replaced in all areas of full depth
patches and there are additional areas of replacement shown in the tables on specific plan sheets,
due to the existing condition of the curb and gutter and are not within the limits of the patch areas.

4. CLARIFICATION OF CONTRACTOR QUESTION
Question: There is no Maintenance of Traffic Specification in the Project Specs and there is only a
Maintenance of Traffic detail on Page 99 of 99 that shows single lane closures for Milling/Overlay
Operations. This is seems applicable for all the milling/overlay operations on the project and can be
used for the typical full depth asphalt and concrete pavement patching as required at East Bound Station
48+50 and East Bound Station 70+50 areas as well as others per detail on B02 and for culvert work, but
does not seem applicable to the Complete reconstruction areas (East bound 248+00 to
297+00 & West Bound 251+50 to 297+00 and associated ramps).
-What is the Maintenance of Traffic plan for the areas of complete reconstruction (East bound 248+00 to
297+00 & West Bound 251+50 to 297+00 and associated ramps) per detail B01
-What days and time are lane closures restricted
We would like to suggest the following Maintenance of Traffic for
construction at East bound 248+00 to 297+00 & West Bound 251+50 to 297+00
and associated ramps:
Potential Offerors list of items has been purposely deleted.
RESPONSE: The detail in the plans is for a single lane closure for any work that can be completed
in a single lane closure (mill/over, etc). In the areas of the full depth patches and drainage
improvements that cross the road, contractors are allowed road closures in the evenings and on
the weekends with the approval of the COR. The contractor will be required to submit a MOT plan
15 days prior to the closure for approval by the COR. This information is shown on Plan sheets
B-01 and B-02, as a note, and it is located in the specifications in section 011100 page 3 under
1.5.A.2. The other restrictions for peak hour are listed in section 1.5.A.
The Government is not responding to suggestions for changes to the maintenance of traffic at this
time. These items shall be addressed with the successful offeror when they submit their traffic
control plan after award.
