The lists of roads to be painted is attached. Materials: The contractor shall use chlorinated low VOC traffic paint and glass beads or VT AOT specified traffic paint. Please mark on the Bid Form what paint will be used. Paint shall be applied at 15 mils. Glass beads shall be applied at 6 pounds per gallon. Application shall comply with Vermont AOT standards. Equipment: The contractor shall furnish a self-propelled fully automated pavement marking vehicle designed for this purpose and capable of applying markings in a true line and of even consistency with a minimum of spillage and overspray. The contractor shall furnish qualified operators and will be responsible for all movement of the equipment. The equipment shall be fully maintained and in good condition at all times throughout the work. All other equipment incidental for performance of the described work must also be supplied by the contractor. Line Location: On new pavement the Town shall mark the location of center and edge lines, and the contractor shall paint the lines as marked. Method of Measurement: The quantity for payment will be the actual number of linear feet of acceptable pavement markings applied to the described streets/highways and as directed by the Town. Double yellow lines for center lines will be measured as a single line, meaning the linear foot bid will account for both lines.

If the contractor questions a length provided by the Town, the contractor shall notify the Town and an attempt will be made to confirm the measurement.
