UNSPSC 30121700: Road and railroad construction materials

UNSPSC 30121700 Road and railroad construction materials is a Class code under which state and local governments procure aggregate base materials, crushed stone, recycled concrete, shell materials, and specialty road-base products for pavement maintenance, resurfacing, drainage infrastructure, and erosion control. Recent solicitations show demand for Flexible Base (Grade 1, Type A) conforming to state specifications, crushed concrete and asphalt rubble processed into road base, composite railroad ties, and various coarse aggregates including lime rock, recycled concrete, and riprap—materials driven by ongoing road preservation programs and infrastructure rehabilitation across multiple jurisdictions.

State and local buyers under this code span county road departments, municipal public works, transit authorities, state forest services, and special districts. Collin County (Texas), Hillsborough County (Florida), Santa Clara County (California), Okaloosa County (Florida), and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services appear as repeat buyers. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, California, and the Southwest, with opportunities posted from urban centers (Hillsborough, Orange County) and rural forest management areas. Recent representative opportunities include Collin County's IFB 2025-292 for Flexible Base road material on an as-needed basis with an estimated annual value of $2.5 million, due October 23, 2026; the City of St. George's IFB 26-306 for portable crushing operations to process asphalt and concrete rubble into road base, due October 19, 2026; the Florida Department of Agriculture's ITB for shell road base material at Peace River State Forest (due October 15, 2026, with addendum extending from original October 8 deadline); Okaloosa County's ITB for FDOT-compliant rock materials on a three-year unit-price contract with renewal options, due August 11, 2026; and the County of Orange's IFB for Class 2 Aggregate Road Base and #57 Rock with a 5% Small Business Enterprise preference deduction, due October 21, 2026. The code shows steady demand aligned with fiscal-year infrastructure budgets and seasonal road-maintenance cycles, with contracts structured as annual or multi-year as-needed agreements, bulk deliveries by the ton, and standing unit pricing tied to geographic delivery zones or pickup options.
