The Contractor shall not cause unnecessary hindrance or Delay to others working on this or other projects. If the performance of a contract for the Project is likely to be interfered with by the simultaneous performance of some other contract or contracts, the Engineer will decide which Contractor shall cease Work temporarily and which Contractor shall continue, or whether the Work under the contracts can be coordinated so that the contractors may proceed simultaneously. On all questions concerning conflicting interest of contractors performing related Work, the decision of the Engineer shall be binding upon all contractors concerned and the City, the Engineer, the City's Representative, and their consultants shall not be responsible for any damages suffered or extra costs incurred by the Contractor resulting directly or indirectly from the Award or performance or attempted performance of any other contract or contracts on the Project or caused by a decision or omission of the Engineer respecting the order of precedence in the performance of the contracts. If, through acts of neglect on the part of the Contractor, any others suffer loss or damage on the Work, the Contractor agrees to resolve such loss or damage fairly and expeditiously. If such other shall assert any claim against the City, the Engineer, the City's Representative, or their consultants on account of any damage alleged to have been so sustained, the City shall notify the Contractor, who shall hold harmless, indemnify, and defend the City, Engineer, the City's Representative, and their consultants, and each of their directors, officers, employees, and agents against any such claim, including all attorney's fees and any other costs incurred by the indemnified parties relative to any such claim.

Final grading to subgrade and subgrade preparation in those areas disturbed by the utilities companies shall be the responsibility of the Contractor and included in the street construction and no additional compensation will be paid.
