2027 Traffic Control Services
This Invitation to Bid (ITB) document is issued by Ada County Highway District (ACHD) in Idaho to solicit competitive bids from qualified firms to provide traffic control services across multiple ACHD job sites throughout Ada County. The services encompass traffic control support for various roadwork activities including chip and fog sealing, paving, shouldering, and miscellaneous road maintenance and construction projects. Due to the complexity and diversity of roadwork categories, locations, and staffing requirements, ACHD intends to award multiple contracts to different vendors to ensure comprehensive coverage and account for vendor availability constraints. The ITB structure permits ACHD to proceed with the next lowest cost bidder without penalty if the selected vendor cannot provide required traffic control services when requested.
The ITB establishes a competitive bidding environment where multiple contract awards are anticipated to address the varied service demands across Ada County. Specific pricing terms, set-asides, response deadlines, site visit schedules, and other detailed bidding requirements are contained within the solicitation documentation. The contract structure reflects ACHD's recognition that no single vendor may be able to meet all traffic control needs across the full range of job sites and project types, necessitating a multi-vendor approach to ensure service availability and project continuity throughout the contract period.
