Temporary Concrete Barriers for I-10 Project-SR 202L to Gila River Bridge

The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) has awarded contract CTR077924 to Quail Construction LLC for temporary concrete barrier (TCB) services on Interstate 10 between Mileposts 161 and 172.25, specifically for the I-10 Gila River Indian Community Project. The contract, valued at approximately $350,000, covers a twelve-month period from September 4, 2025, to September 3, 2026, with potential for a subsequent 12-month extension. Key deliverables include TCB crash cushion installation and removal (priced at $3,000 per occurrence), daily crash cushion usage ($50 per day), and temporary concrete barrier installation, removal, and relocation services.

The contract stipulates that Quail Construction must maintain at least 40 temporary concrete barriers available for simultaneous use, with specific requirements for traffic control, safety protocols, and cultural sensitivity when working in Native American tribal areas. Pricing details include unit rates for crash cushion installation ($3,000 each), crash cushion in-use charges ($50 per day), temporary concrete barrier installation and removal ($28 per linear foot), barrier relocation ($7 per linear foot), and barrier in-use fees ($0.15 per day). The award was justified based on project continuity and the potential disruption that would result from removing existing barriers, with the contractor demonstrating compliance with state procurement requirements and providing necessary insurance coverage.
