Unless otherwise indicated on the Bid Form, the measurement and payment for the work specified in this Section shall be as follows:
A.
Curb and Gutter.
Measurement and payment of curb and gutter will be by the linear foot measured along the face of curb and payment will be by the unit price bid per linear foot. Where omission of the vertical portion of the curb and gutter occurs, the length shall be measured along a line one (1) foot six (6) inches from the inside edge of the gutter. No deductions or additions from the unit price bid will be made for omissions of the vertical portions of the curb and gutter occurring at driveways and other locations. The unit price shall include compensation for all labor, tools, equipment, materials, excavation and backfill, reinforcing steel, expansion joint filler and other incidentals necessary to complete the work. Inlet structures shall be paid for separately, and their length shall not be included in the length for curb and gutter. The difference in the cost for the variable height curb and gutter shall be included in the price for the inlet.
B.
Valley gutters will be measured and paid for at the unit price per each valley gutter regardless of length. The unit price shall include compensation for all labor, tools, equipment, materials, earthwork, removal and replacing of existing asphalt pavement and base, reinforcing steel, premolded expansion joint filler and other incidentals necessary to complete the work.
C.
The removal of existing concrete driveways will be measured and paid for at the unit price per square yard regardless of the thickness. Measurement will be the actual amount of concrete driveway removed. Payment for this item will be complete compensation for tools, labor, equipment, disposal of removed materials and all other incidentals necessary to complete the work.
