  • Drawing ITS-03 states to maintain Existing Pump Station #29. Please clarify where we will get paid for this maintenance.
    This item includes maintenance of ITS infrastructure in the pump station. General Note #2 on ITS-01 states ITS infrastructure and ITS operation labeled to be maintained shall be paid under the MAINTAINING ITS DURING CONSTRUCTION pay item. (04/16/2020)

  • What encompasses the “terminate in cabinet” count of (792)? The description states a termination shall consist of splicing a single strand to an optical pigtail. Is it also landing the pre-term connectors? If so, how was the quantity of (792) reached?
    Communication Equipment Schematic sheets show incoming fiber cables to be terminated at a pre-term module but the contractor may determine due to staging and constructability limitations that the fiber be field terminated. Payment for landing pre-terminated fiber is not included in the cost of TERMINATE FIBER IN CABINET and would be included in the cost of the fiber cable. The contract includes a quantity of 792 for TERMINATE FIBER IN CABINET to perform this work if necessary and as approved by the Engineer, which includes 144 terminations at the I-55 Comm Hut, 624 (2-144F, 3-96F, 4-12F) terminations at the Halsted Comm Hut, 12 terminations at Cabinet Z6 and 12 terminations at Cabinet Z8. (04/16/2020)

  • Will rolling lane closures be allowed during daytime hours to allow for maintenance operations?
    The Keeping the Expressway Open to Traffic Special Provision identifies allowable impacts to roadway and ramp lanes and shoulders. (04/16/2020)

  • It is unreasonable to expect all lighting and MOT systems to be maintained by the 60Y00 contractor can be inspected with IDOT to find existing damage that may require repair. Underground wiring, grounding, existing splices, etc... cannot reasonably be inspected during maintenance transfer. Will the 60Y00 contractor be compensated for outages caused by unforeseen equipment damage that was existsing at time of transfer?
    Due to the amount of controllers affected by Contract 60Y00 and other contracts ongoing simultaneously at the time of the 60Y00 Contract, it may be difficult to identify all the existing systems that may require repair at the time of maintenance transfer. The Contractor shall work with IDOT Construction for outages caused by unforeseen equipment damage that was existing at the time of transfer. IDOT Construction will be the sole source for identifying and determining; which outages are caused by the 60Y00 Contactor and which outages are caused by existing damage caused by unforeseen damage at the time of maintenance transfer. (04/16/2020)

  • How will it be determined if temporary traffic surveillance/vehicle detection will be required?
    Prior coordination with IDOT has determined that 60Y00 is to install three temporary roadside detectors as shown in the plans. (04/16/2020)

  • If lane closures are not allowed due to conflicts with adjacent contracts that the 60Y00 contractor cannot control, will additional time and compensation for delay be added to the contract (idle time, additional home office overhead, etc...)?
    The contractor is expected to actively coordinate improvements that require lane closures with IDOT-Traffic and other contractors. There may be opportunities to utilize closures by other contractors. There are no specific requirements to start or complete any individual project component at a given time. (04/16/2020)

  • Are workzones and staging dependent on adjacent contracts MOT?
    The suggested staging identified on the Plans references the suggested staging by others that will also be available under Contract 60Y00 as shown. The mainline I-90/94 reconstruction contractors will generally receive precedence for lane closures. (04/16/2020)

  • Chain Link Fence 8’ The plans do not have a detail on the Chain Link Fence 8’, nor is the IDOT Chain Link Fence Standard listed in the applicable highway standards or District 1 Standards. Please provide a special provision and/or detail of the fence to help understand what type of perimeter fence is intended.
    The chain link fence shall be in accordance with the IDOT Standard Specifications Section 664 Chain Link Fence. (04/16/2020)

  • Remove Temporary Wood Pole (X0322141) spec on page 198 states that the removal "shall also include removal of all wiring and connections back to the associated lighting controller..." Please clarify if the existing aerial cables on these wood poles are to be removed and paid for via this pay item (X0322141) or via pay item X8951011 (Remove Aerial Cable).
    "Associated apparatus and connections" may include but is not limited to coiled cable, attached conduit, and attached junction boxes. Aerial cable spanning between temporary wood poles shall be paid for under REMOVE AERIAL CABLE. (04/16/2020)

  • On the 60Y00 Staging narrative, it says to terminate the 12SM from KE-OG equipment cabinet at Cab Z8, on ITS-78 it shows it being a pre-term cable, is that supposed to be a 12ct pigtail, rather are all the 12smf laterals pre-term on (1) side?
    All 12 fiber laterals are intended to be preterminated on one end, and pigtail terminated on the opposite end. The preterminated end shall be located at the far-end site and pigtails shall be used to terminate at the congregation site. Example being KE-0G (far-end site) shall be preterminated and Cabinet Z8 (congregation point) would be pigtail terminated. (04/14/2020)

  • When it says to re-route cables for the new hut, are we supposed to include those as “terminate in cabinet” being that those are re-routes are in a Comm Hut and not in a cabinet?
    Re-route of existing equipment and cables from the existing hut to the new hut shall be included in the cost of ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION COMMUNICATIONS NODE as outlined in the "Cutover Work" section of the specification. New cables to be terminated in the new hut are included in TERMINATE FIBER IN CABINET. (04/14/2020)
