19422-96872-T07 - PWD/RPS/ Sidewalk Unit with Operator for Rural Roads

The intent of this Contract is to provide sidewalk and/or bus stop snow clearing maintenance. This Contract may include plowing snow and blowing snow from the sidewalk and bus stop surfaces.  It may also include scraping ice and hard packed snow from these surfaces and applying de-icing/abrasive materials (i.e. salt, grit and/or sand/salt mixture) to secure footing. At the discretion of the Area Manager or designate, the contractor may be required to clear snow and apply de-icing/abrasive materials simultaneously.  The City uses its own equipment as well as hired equipment.  Each piece of sidewalk equipment will be assigned to a specific route per snow event upon arrival at the Roads Services Area Maintenance Yard. In addition to sidewalk and bus stop maintenance, rental equipment can be used for additional maintenance work such as snow removal, with no change in the hourly rate of pay.
