The work includes traffic control programs, roadway sweeping or blowing, and ancillary incidentals necessary for completion. 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. The contract term is scheduled to begin October 13, 2026 and conclude January 25, 2027 (90 days from the preconstruction conference), with the County retaining the option to extend by mutual consent. An intent to award will be issued on September 21, 2026, followed by a protest period from September 21-24.

Qualified bidders must have successfully completed at least two similar projects as a prime contractor or subcontractor, been in business for at least three years, and maintained the same company name for a minimum of two years, with all necessary state and local licenses and certifications.
