Delaware Water Gap Borough proposes to mill and overlay Cherry Valley Road which will aid in providing a roadway crown and will direct stormwater by sheet flow to the lawn areas adjacent to the roadway. This will provide assurance that the stormwater will run along the lawn areas and not the pavement which results in pavement decay. Minor driveway adjustments and grassed transition areas will be required to meet the new paved roadway surface. The project is located along Cherry Valley Road in Delaware Water Gap Borough and will extend approximately 2,500 feet from Main Street (S.R. 0611) to the municipal boundary shared with Smithfield Township. In addition, a concrete curb is proposed to replace an existing rolled bituminous curb to aid in directing stormwater away from an existing home, and an existing speed hump will be removed and installed. In addition to the above base bid work, alternate bid work will include installing an inlet, storm sewer pipe and flared end section with rock riprap, connecting an existing sump pump to the newly installed inlet, adjusting existing driveways to provide positive drainage, and remove and replace storm sewer near the intersection of Cherry Valley Road and Kimberly Road. A pre-construction meeting with the Contractor and Borough Engineer is required prior to the start of work. CLARIFICATION DEADLINE 3/3/2021 4:30 PM
