This is a location map document for the Town of Manchester, Connecticut, dated February 25, 2026, depicting the Bush Hill Road survey limits for the proposed reconstruction project. The map illustrates approximately 1.7 miles of Bush Hill Road extending from Hillstown Road to Keeney Street in Hartford County, with reference points including neighboring streets such as Gerald Drive, Bell Street, and the Glastonbury Town Line. The Town of Manchester issued Request for Proposal 25/26-42 seeking a qualified Professional Land Surveyor licensed in Connecticut to perform topographic field survey and base mapping services. The surveyor must prepare AutoCAD-formatted deliverables showing existing conditions within approximately 100 feet on each side of the road centerline, with extended coverage at intersecting public streets, and must research existing roadway rights-of-way, identify property owners, and locate all public utilities within project limits. The proposal deadline is April 8, 2026, at 2:00 p.m., with a questions deadline of April 5, 2026. Proposals must be submitted electronically through the Town's OpenGov procurement portal.

Evaluation will be based 50 percent on demonstrated experience of the firm and key personnel and 50 percent on lump-sum pricing, with the contract awarded to the proposal deemed most advantageous to the Town. Professional liability insurance of not less than $1,000,000 per claim and in the aggregate is required. The Town of Manchester Living Wage Ordinance applies, requiring covered employers to pay eligible employees a living wage of $17.78 per hour with comprehensive health benefits or $26.07 per hour without comprehensive health benefits, unless exempt. Bidders must submit a completed Living Wage Certification form, IRS Form W-9, and a sample basemap deliverable demonstrating competency with similar roadway corridor projects. No incumbent vendors, set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises, or specific budget ranges are identified. The contract award value is not disclosed, with pricing to be submitted as a sealed proposal. The project is anticipated to coordinate with ongoing Keeney Street sidewalk construction work scheduled for substantial completion by Summer 2026.
