Explanation

This project was initiated under the Betterment Program to support pavement marking maintenance at

highest priority locations within funding constraints. This project will perform maintenance of select

stenciled and transverse line pavement markings using white retroreflective paint and thermoplastic

marking materials at specific locations in the state. This work is to be performed during the 2026 season.

Work locations will be on state-maintained roads at intersections, along corridors, and at select railroad

grade crossings. Locations are determined by Bureau of Traffic Pavement Marking section based on

condition of existing markings, roadway priority/volume, locations not subject to resurfacing, and

available funding. Scope includes select locations on US 1 Seabrook to Portsmouth, US 3 Merrimack to

Bedford and Boscawen to Laconia, NH 111 Windham to Kingston, NH 125 Plaistow to Epping and at other

locations.

This project is needed to ensure and enhance the safety of traveling public by maintaining effective

pavement markings. Pavement marking maintenance is normally performed by NHDOT forces but

continually expanding inventory necessitates outsourcing a portion of the annual work.

There is a 5% contingency for this project to address unanticipated traffic control needs.

The Contractor has been prequalified by this Department. The Contract has been approved by the

Attorney General as to form and execution, and the Department has certified that the necessary funds are

available and the bid reasonably conforms to the engineer’s estimate in accordance with State procedure.

Copies of the fully executed contract are on file at the Secretary of State’s Office and the Department of

Administrative Service’s Office, and subsequent to Governor and Council approval will be on file at the

Department of Transportation.

This project funding is: 0% Federal funds (100% Betterment; BET-STAL-HQ and BET-MAR-HQ).

A copy of the Tabulation of Bids received for this project is attached along with the Contract Supplemental

Sheet and a map indicating the location of the project.

Your approval of this resolution is respectfully requested. The Department of Transportation has

determined that the vendor is in good standing with the Secretary of State’s Office, has secured the

required levels of insurance, and has provided evidence of authority to execute and be bound by the

contract.

Sincerely,

David M. Rodrigue, P.E.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROJECT INFORMATION SHEET

DESCRIPTION: This project will perform maintenance of select stenciled and transverse line

pavement markings using white retroreflective paint and thermoplastic marking materials at

specific locations in the state. This work is to be performed during the 2026 season. Work locations

will be on state-maintained roads at intersections, along corridors, and at select railroad grade

crossings. Locations are determined by Bureau of Traffic Pavement Marking section based on

condition of existing markings, roadway priority/volume, locations not subject to resurfacing, and

available funding. Scope includes select locations on US 1 Seabrook to Portsmouth, US 3

Merrimack to Bedford and Boscawen to Laconia, NH 111 Windham to Kingston, NH 125 Plaistow to

Epping and at other locations.

FEDERAL FUNDING: 0% (100% Betterment; BET-STAL-HQ and BET-MAR-HQ)

CONTINGENCY: There is a 5% contingency for this project to address unanticipated traffic control

needs.

PROJECT INITIATED: This project was initiated under the Betterment Program to support

pavement marking maintenance at highest priority locations within funding constraints.

PROJECT EXPLANATION: Project is needed to ensure and enhance the safety of traveling public

by maintaining effective pavement markings. Pavement marking maintenance is normally

performed by NHDOT forces but continually expanding inventory necessitates outsourcing a

portion of the annual work.

TRAFFIC IMPLICATIONS: Traffic impacts are expected to be minimal. Traffic Control for short-

term operations will be performed by the Contractor, specific to the work activity and locations.

Generally, traffic control involves lane closure during application of marking material. Select

locations require night work in areas of high daytime traffic volumes and other locations will be

considered if requested by Contractor. Flaggers will be used for all operations except where

uniformed officers may be warranted due to traffic volumes.

INTERMEDIATE COMPLETION DATES: September 18, 2026 for completion of all thermoplastic

pavement markings (Items 632.31xx and 632.32).
