BG2025_0815_Cable Creek.pdf

This is a project description document for the Cable Creek project issued by the State of Alaska, Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOTPF). The project involves the design and construction of improvements to the Cable Creek bridge and approaches located in Southeast Alaska. The scope of work includes bridge rehabilitation or replacement, approach roadway improvements, and associated construction activities. The document outlines project overview information, environmental considerations, and engineering requirements. The contract term extends through the completion of construction phases, with specific milestone dates to be established during the design phase. Site visits are encouraged for prospective bidders to familiarize themselves with project conditions and site constraints, particularly given the remote location and challenging terrain of Southeast Alaska.

Pricing for the project will be established through the competitive bidding process, with costs to be funded through DOTPF's capital improvement budget and potentially leveraging federal transportation funds. The project is open to qualified contractors meeting state and federal requirements for transportation infrastructure work. Key considerations include the remote location requiring specialized equipment and mobilization planning, environmental permits and mitigation measures related to fish passage and stream health, and coordination with local stakeholders. Alaska Native Corporation set-asides or other small business preferences may apply per state procurement regulations. The project timeline anticipates design completion followed by construction phases, with the specific award date and contract execution contingent upon completing environmental review processes and obtaining necessary permits.
