THE CHAIR RECOGNIZES COUNCILOR HODGE.
With majority consent of the Council, the following motion made by Councilor Hodge, seconded by Councilor Chadwick, is PASSED on a unanimous voice vote:
The Clerk is instructed to send a communication to Michael P. Lewis, Director, RI Department of Transportation, asking why there was no mention of the problems with the Pawtucket Bridge 550 in the last weekly report. The council is asking that the reports include all the important information about the project, both good and bad, so that there is a full understanding of what is happening regarding the project.
THE CHAIR RECOGNIZES COUNCILOR CHADWICK.
With majority consent of the Council, the following motion made by Councilor Chadwick, seconded by Councilor Hodge, is PASSED on a unanimous voice vote:
The Clerk is instructed to send a communication to Victor M. Mendez, Federal Highway Administrator, expressing the Council’s concerns regarding the repairs being made to the Pawtucket Bridge 550 on Route 95. The RI Department of Transportation has found problems with the alignment of the steel beams in one of the spandrels on the bridge and has required the contractor to correct the problem. The contractor reportedly plans to place shims in the holes with the steal beams to correct the alignment. The Council is concerned about the safety of the use of shims to correct the alignment and wants to know if the FHA believes that this is an appropriate method to correct the problem. Also, if they use of shims, is it a material breach of contract for this project.
