The striping will be applied using durable painted or thermoplastic materials per current FDOT and County standards, with ancillary activities including traffic control programs, roadway sweeping or blowing, and other necessary incidentals. A mandatory pre-bid meeting is scheduled for August 26, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. at the Government Complex in Palatka, Florida, with attendance required for bidders to be considered responsive. Sealed bids are due on September 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. EST, with an intent to award issued on September 21, 2026 and a protest period from September 21-24, 2026. The contract term begins October 13, 2026 and concludes January 25, 2027 (90 days from the preconstruction conference), with Putnam County retaining the option to extend by mutual consent.
