Item 30

Authorize the Bureau of Bridge Design to amend the Interstate Bridge Agreement with the State of Vermont (originally approved by G&C on 3-6-13, item #45), which allows the Department to bill Vermont for costs associated with rehabilitation of the bridge carrying East Thetford Road over the Connecticut River (NH Br. No. 053/112 and Connecticut River Br. No. 14) between the Towns of Lyme, NH and Thetford, VT, effective upon G&C approval, and continuing through engineering design, construction, inspection, and final acceptance of the completed project, in accordance with the Department’s 10-Year Transportation Improvement Plan. The amendment modifies Section 2.d Construction Costs and Section 3 Application of Federal Grants of the previously approved agreement to reflect the more precise cost sharing determination of 86% by NH and 14% by VT.
