SCOPE OF SERVICES FOR
CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING, INSPECTION & SAMPLING (CEI&S) SERVICES
General Scope of Project:
The project will widen and improve a 1.65 mile section of 100 W Road from milepost 102.05 to
milepost 103.7 to address design deficiencies and safety issues in order for it to be designated as
a 129,000 lb truck route. The planned reconstruction will consist of removing and reconstructing
the existing roadway, improving intersections, and replacing the bridge over H Canal. The road
pavement will be widened from 22 feet to 28 feet, and the alignment will shift 5 feet to the east to
avoid impacts to the existing canal, residences, and utilities on the project's west side. The current
28-foot-wide bridge structure over H Canal will be replaced by a widened structure to
accommodate the 12-foot clear zones of the roadway. The new culvert will be approximately 90
feet wide out-to-out, an increase of 17 feet on the west side and 27 feet on the east side and will
match the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the opening of the existing culvert.
Work will take 74 working days and has a floating start date of August 24, 2026 to April 12,
2027.
Major CE&I work activities include the following:
Contract Administration
Survey Control
Project Inspection
