The Town of Manchester Department of Public Works, Engineering Division proposes work under this contract that includes the milling and resurfacing of approximately 64,000 square yards of bituminous concrete roadway at various locations in the Town of Manchester.  Project includes appurtenant work such as the resetting of utility structures, pavement markings, and traffic control.

Subject roads and streets will have one to four inches (1" to 4") of pavement removed and new pavement (bituminous concrete) installed, matching existing elevations, unless otherwise noted below or in the Contract Documents. The installation of new pavement typically occurs in two passes: the base course and the top course/driving surface. This project only includes the removal and replacement of the top course/driving surface.

Look for signing indicating "Raised Structures" during the interim period between paving the base course and top course.  These signs are warning of structures such as manhole covers, catch basins, and valve boxes raised above the base course such that they will be level for the final, top course paving.  Paving will also include "crowning" the roadway, typically along the center line, to provide a cross-slope that directs storm water to drain away from the travel lanes to the gutterline of the roadway, where storm structures are located.

Please note that the following list may be amended without notice at any time with additional street segments added and/or removed as directed by the Engineer.  Some roads listed may also not include the full length of the road.  Reasons for excluding a portion or segment of a road include, but are not limited to: pavement conditions not warranting rehabilitation at this time, planned future utility and/or storm drainage work being coordinated, roadway requires more extensive reconstruction outside the scope of the subject project, or other reasons at the discretion of the Engineer.
