The purpose of this contract is to design necessary improvements to the water distribution system in the Kenwick Road Area. This project provides for general rehabilitation of the water distribution system and may include replacement of water lines which have exceeded their useful life and construction of new lines to eliminate poor fire flow capabilities and poor water quality. The improvements may also replace or rehabilitate water lines that have high break histories and require frequent maintenance.

Dawson Ave., Medford Rd., Wakefield Ct. West, Wakefield Ct. East, Cottingham Ct. West, Cottingham Ct. East, Rose View Dr., Floribunda Dr. and Byron Ave.
This project is located within the Mid East (57) and East Columbus (50) Community Planning Areas.

ESTIMATED COST OF PROJECT: The contract amount is to be $281,559.54 including a 15% contingency that will be utilized to fund needed and approved changes in the work. No contract modifications are anticipated at this time; however, design exigency might later compel modification of this contract if unforeseen difficulties are encountered.
