About this file

This is a Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) proposal document for a State Let Construction Contract involving the Texas Transportation Commission in Williamson County. The project, identified as Control 0015-09-208 (Project F 2026(788)), consists of hazard elimination and safety improvements on Interstate 35, including adding an auxiliary lane and related construction work from the Inner Loop Entrance to the Westinghouse Road Exit. The scope of work encompasses extensive roadway construction activities such as right-of-way preparation, excavation, embankment placement, flexible base installation, asphalt pavement placement, drainage structures, guardrail installation, traffic control devices, pavement markings, and seeding for erosion control. The proposal lists 72 bid items with varying quantities ranging from 1 to 82,440 units, depending on the specific item. Contractors must submit a satisfactory audited financial statement and experience questionnaire at least ten days prior to the letting date. The project is to be completed in 128 working days and will be accepted upon full completion and satisfaction of the Executive Director or designee.

Bidders must provide a proposal guaranty in the form of a Cashier's Check, Teller's Check, Bank Money Order, or bid bond in the amount of $58,000.00, with a maximum bid bond limit of $100,000. Unit prices must be submitted for each bid item in accordance with TxDOT standard specifications, and bid prices may be submitted either by computer printout or hand-written format. The proposal requires acknowledgment of any addenda issued (up to five addenda are referenced), and failure to acknowledge receipt will result in the bid not being read. Successful bidders will receive their guaranty checks with the executed contract. The project is a Federal Aid Project requiring notarized Buy America Certification Forms for all items classified as construction materials. The proposal document includes comprehensive general notes, special provisions, and construction requirements addressing traffic control restrictions, lane closure assessment fees based on Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) values ranging from $150 to $2,000 per 15-minute interval, environmental controls, erosion and sedimentation management, and compliance with TxDOT specifications and standards. Various special events and closure restrictions apply, including restrictions related to the 2026 FIFA World Cup in Houston and Dallas.

References to manufacturer’s trade name or catalog numbers are for the purpose of identification only. Similar materials from other manufacturers are permitted if they are of equal quality, comply with the specifications for this project, and are approved.

If work is performed at Contractor’s option, when inclement weather is impending, and the work is damaged by subsequent precipitation, the Contractor is responsible for all costs associated with replacing the work, if required.

The roadbed will be free of organic material prior to placing any section of the pavement structure.

Equip all construction equipment used in roadway work with highly visible omnidirectional flashing warning lights.

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Infrastructure may exist within the limits of this project and that the system must remain operational throughout construction. The exact location of ITS Infrastructure is not known. Contact the TxDOT Area Engineer's or Inspection Team's Office for the location(s) at least 72 hours before commencing any work that might affect present ITS Infrastructure.

Lights will be high intensity and visible from all angles.

No payment will be made for law enforcement personnel needed for moving equipment or payment for drive time to/from the event site. A minimum number of hours is not guaranteed.

Payment is for work performed. If the Contractor has a field office, provide an office location for a supervisory officer when event requires a supervising officer. This work is subsidiary.

A maximum combined rate of $85 per hour for the law enforcement personnel and the patrol vehicle will be allowed. Any scheduling fee is subsidiary per Standard Specification 502.4.2.

Cancel law enforcement personnel when the event is canceled. Cancellation, minimums or “show up” fees will not be paid when cancellation is made 12 hours prior to beginning of the event. Failure to cancel within 12 hours will not be cause for payment for cancellation, minimums, or "show up" time. Payment of actual “show up” time to the event site due to cancellation will be on a case-by-case basis at a maximum of 2 hours per officer.

Alterations to the cancellation and maximum rate must be approved by the Engineer or pre-determined by official policy of the officer’s governing authority.

ITEM 8 – PROSECUTION AND PROGRESS

Lane Closure Assessment Fee.

The monthly estimate will be deducted a fee per 15-minute interval according to the following schedule for each closure or obstruction that extends beyond the allowable closure time.
