Show U-IB3 Paing Probst The Utah Department of Transportation plans to pave two additional miles of U-153 U-153 in Beaver Canyon this fall, for better access toMt. Holly and to facilitate snow removal to the ski resort. UDOT operied bids on a contract for the work, which also includes provisions to resurface the adjoining two and half miles of the exist- . ing pavement. L. A. Young Sons Construction Con-struction of Richfield submitted sub-mitted the apparent low bid of $296,611. Because the bid is more than ten percent over ov-er the official engineer's estimate es-timate of $176,544 UDOT will review the project and decide whether to accept the offer or to readvertise. Bob- Rowley, UDOT District Dis-trict Preconstruction Engineer, En-gineer, said if the contract is awarded, plans call for paving of the new, two-mile long section first. "Resurfacing "Resur-facing of the adjoining section sec-tion will be done after the new section is completed, if the weather holds up," Although Al-though paving work may be done up to October 15, early ear-ly onset of inclement weather weath-er may delay operations enough to force cancellation of a portion of the resurfacing resurfac-ing work. |
