Reconstruct Runway 4-22 at the Tuscaloosa National Airport

A. The Project shall be known as Reconstruct Runway 4-22 at the Tuscaloosa National Airport and the general character of said public works project shall consist of the following: The principal focus of the project includes rehabilitation of the 6500 ft by 150 ft Runway 4-22 pavement area, reconstruction and reconfiguration of 5,150 square yards of Connector Taxiway A5, resurfacing of 10,150 square yards of Taxiway A1, and short tie-in sections of eight other connector taxiways totaling another 2,300 square yards. Work elements include milling, in-place full-depth recycling for the formation of cement-stabilized base, asphalt paving, pavement grooving, pavement painting, and airfield lighting. B. The approximate quantities of said Project are as follows: The milling of surface asphalt and some aggregate base materials to 7 inches below the proposed grade will include over 108,000 square yards of Runway 4-22 and 5,150 square yards of Taxiway A5. The milling of asphalt surface materials for resurfacing of Connector Taxiway A1 will cover approximately 10,150 square yards, and the milling of asphalt surface materials for tie-in of eight other connector taxiways will cover another 2,300 square yards. Nearly 118,000 square yards of in-place, full-depth recycled, cement-stabilized, asphalt aggregate base will be created. Approximately 50,000 tons of asphalt base and surface paving will be placed. Nearly 94,000 square yards of asphalt surface grooving for improved friction will be required on the runway. Approximately 150,000 square feet of temporary and permanent painted airfield markings will be installed. And the reconfiguration of Taxiway A5 will require installation of 16 taxiway edge lights and relocation of an internally-lit airfield sign. C. Special instructions are as follows: In accordance with the Alabama Licensing Board for General Contractors rules and regulations Section 230-X-1-.27.1.e, construction of runways and any other work incidental thereto, requires the general contractor to carry licensure in Heavy and Railroad Construction
