About this award
The Federal Highway Administration awarded a $4.19 million firm fixed-price definitive contract to Whelcon Contractors LLC for the AZ FS 289(1) AZ NFSR 289 Bridge Replacement project on January 16, 2026. The contract involves reconstructing a portion of Forest Road 289 in the national forest near Payson, Arizona, including removal of an existing bridge and construction of a new single-span prefabricated steel bridge over Tonto Creek. The project scope encompasses approximately 3,100 cubic yards of roadway excavation, 535 tons of asphalt concrete pavement, and 448 linear feet of precast, prestressed concrete box beams, with an ultimate completion date of October 14, 2026. No set-aside designation was used for this award.
Whelcon Contractors LLC, a minority-owned, Hispanic American-led small disadvantaged business based in Tucson, Arizona, was selected based on competitive merit. The company holds active SBA certifications as an 8(a) Program Participant and HUBZone firm, and brings substantial relevant experience to this project, including prior infrastructure awards from the Federal Highway Administration exceeding $20 million. Notably, Whelcon Contractors currently holds a $25 million multiple award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract with the U.S. Army Reserve Command designated as the REGION 3 MATOC, which provides a framework for federal agencies to issue task orders for infrastructure and construction services across the southwestern United States through June 2030.
