The document is an Addendum for a culvert replacement project issued by the Town of Killington, Vermont, involving three separate culvert locations on Trailview Drive, Great Trail Road, and Trailside Drive. The project requires a single prime contractor to complete comprehensive infrastructure improvements, including temporary stream flow diversion, existing culvert removal, pipe installation, headwall and wingwall construction, and guardrail installation. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for July 30, 2025, at 9:30 a.m., with electronic bid documents available from Enman Kesselring Consulting Engineers. Sealed bids are due by 2:00 p.m. on August 6, 2025, to the Town Manager's Office, with strict project completion timelines mandating stream work by October 1, 2026, substantial completion by October 15, 2026, and final construction by November 1, 2026.

The project is federally funded and requires Bid, Payment, and Performance bonding, with bids to be submitted on a lump sum basis. The Town of Killington demonstrates a commitment to diverse vendor participation by explicitly encouraging bids from woman-owned, minority-owned, and low-income businesses. The Selectboard reserves substantial discretion in the bidding process, including the right to reject any or all bids, waive informalities, accept non-lowest bids, call for rebids, and negotiate with bidders. Potential contractors are permitted to inspect project sites prior to bid submission, and all questions must be directed to Enman Kesselring Consulting Engineers by July 31, 2025.
