    Questions & Answers

    Q (Light Pole Weight): Is the weight of the light pole available?

    A: The pole is approximately 40 lbs


    Q (Light Function): Are all the lights currently in working condition?

    A: We believe they are. The seven that are mentioned in the scope just need to be confirmed to be working now, and after the repairs are completed.


    Q (Anchoring Details): Could you please confirm whether existing anchor bolts are currently in place at the light pole bases, or if new anchoring hardware will be required as part of the scope?

    A: There are anchor bolts in place.


    Q (Work Schedule): Please confirm if the work is required to be performed during regular daytime hours, or if there are any restrictions, night work requirements, or limited access windows.

    A: The work needs to be performed during regular business hours.


    Q (Ground / Soil Conditions): Please confirm the existing ground conditions around the pole bases, including whether there are any known issues such as erosion, soft soil, or underground obstructions.

    A: The Greenway is built on wetlands, so the conditions of the soil will depend on the weather conditions.


    Q (Existing Conditions): Are there any known pre-existing damages or structural issues at the light pole bases that the contractor should be aware of prior to starting the work?

    A: With replacing the bases, if there are any issues, the replacement will alleviate the issue.
