County updates: shared-use path progress, chip-seal delay and bridge/crushing schedules
Summary
County road staff and contractors reported shared-use path earthwork complete and a September concrete pour scheduled; chip-seal contractor requested a later start, potentially triggering liquidated damages, and multiple pit-crushing and bridge projects remain on the fall schedule.
County public-works staff updated the commission on multiple road and trail projects. Contractors completed earthwork for a shared-use path; concrete work was scheduled for late September and a pedestrian bridge fabrication was estimated for installation next April. Crushing work at several pits is underway and site reclamation remains to be completed.
The chip-seal contractor (Aztec) requested additional time and may not begin until mid-September; staff discussed using a change order to suspend work until spring and to allow liquidated damages (LDs) to accrue if the contractor fails to meet new start/completion thresholds. Staff explained that LDs would begin if work extended past the agreed seasonal window and that weather and cure time limit fall window work.
Several bridge and grading projects remain under environmental review or in contracting stages, and staff said they would bring final schedules and potential NDACO-conference coordination items to commissioners in the coming weeks.
