Amendment No. 1 to Term Contract With AKCA, LLC, for Traffic Marking Services for Department of Public Works (Contract No. 22-T00045/TB)

Amendment No. One (1) would allow for a more cost-effective approach by adding a new line item with a reduced unit cost as the process for thermoplastic pavement marking removal on roadways being treated with microsurfacing does not require 100% removal of the existing pavement markings.
