NIGP 54010: Bridge Timbers and Railroad Ties, Treated

NIGP 54010 Bridge Timbers and Railroad Ties, Treated is an Item code that encompasses removal and replacement of aged railroad ties and timber bridge structural components, along with associated bridge deck and trestle repairs in state and local capital projects. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily county transportation and public works departments, state parks agencies, and municipalities managing bridge infrastructure; the recent opportunities show activity from Washington State Parks, Orange County Florida, Okaloosa County Florida, and the City of Palm Bay acting on behalf of Brevard County Florida. The scope includes removal of existing railroad ties from steel trestles, replacement with precast concrete deck panels and steel railings, trestle repairs, rock wall stabilization, and full bridge replacements involving concrete pilings, abutments, caps, decking, and barrier rail systems designed to AASHTO standards.
