About this file

This is a Notice to Bidders and Specifications document for the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) District 1 for Contract No. 62W73, a Standard and Design Overlay & ADA Improvements project located on Green Bay Road (Route FAU 2744) spanning approximately 2.89 miles across the Villages of Glencoe, Winnetka, and Kenilworth in Cook County, Illinois. The project consists of pavement overlay and resurfacing with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility improvements, including the removal and replacement of brick pavers, construction of detectable warning systems, curb and gutter removal and replacement, and traffic signal modifications. Electronic bids must be submitted through the iCX-Integrated Contractors Exchange system by 12:00 p.m. on September 18, 2026, at which time bids will be publicly opened. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in accordance with the Department's terms and conditions as outlined in the Invitation for Bids and contract documents. The project involves multiple utility adjustments and relocations by AT&T, Nicor Gas, Verizon/MCI, and ComEd, with specific staging and coordination requirements detailed in the specifications.

The contract requires compliance with the Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction (Adopted January 1, 2022, Revised January 1, 2026), the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, and various supplemental and recurring special provisions. The project includes specific provisions for hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures with quality control and quality assurance requirements, regulated substance removal and disposal at multiple intersections with contaminant sampling parameters for VOCs, SVOCs, and metals, and a Project Labor Agreement. The contractor must establish and maintain an Engineer's Field Office Type A (D1) with specified dimensions and equipment, provide traffic control plans with coordination requirements, and manage construction sequencing across multiple stages. No specific contract amount or funding source is stated in the document; however, the project is identified as receiving Federal-aid funds under designation STP-34NK(011), which requires federal compliance certifications and regulations. The contractor assumes responsibility for roadway maintenance beginning on the work start date and must comply with all prevailing wage, equal employment opportunity, and disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) participation requirements as outlined in the recurring special provisions.

CONSTRUCTION LAYOUT SPECIAL FOR RESURFACING WITH ADA AND STAND ALONE

ADA (D1)

Effective: January 1, 2017 Revised: April 17, 2017

Description. This work shall consist of furnishing and placing construction layout stakes for the construction of ADA Ramps shown in the plans. The Contractor shall furnish and place stakes marking the locations and elevations of points indicated in the plans for ADA Ramp Construction.

The Contractor shall locate all reference points as shown on the plans and listed herein. Any additional control points required will be identified in the field by the Contractor and all field notes will be kept in the office of the Resident Engineer.

The Contractor shall provide field forces, equipment, and material to set all additional stakes for this project, which are needed to establish offset stakes, reference points, and any other horizontal and vertical controls necessary to secure a correct layout for the work.

Section 2024-951-RS, SW

Layout stakes shall be set to assure conformance to the ADA Ramp design shown on the plans and shall meet the approval of the Engineer.

The Contractor shall be responsible for having the finished work conform to the lines, grades, elevations, and dimensions called for in the plans. Any inspection or checking of the Contractor’s layout by the Engineer and the acceptance of all or any part of it shall not relieve the Contractor of his/her responsibility to secure the proper dimensions, grades, and elevations of the work. The Contractor shall exercise care in the preservation of stakes and bench marks and shall have them reset when any are damaged, lost, displaced, removed or otherwise obliterated.

Responsibility of the Department.

The Department will make random checks of the Contractor’s staking to determine if the work is in conformance with the plans. When the Contractor’s work will tie into work that is being or will be done by others, checks will be made to determine if the work is in conformance with the proposed overall grade and horizontal alignment.

Where the Contractor, in setting construction stakes, discovers discrepancies, the Department will check to determine their nature and make whatever revisions are necessary to the plans. Any additional restaking required by the Engineer will be the responsibility of the Contractor. The additional restaking done by the Contractor will be paid for according to Article 109.04 of the Standard Specifications.

The Department will be responsible for the accuracy of the initial reference points shown in the plans.

It is not the responsibility of the Department, except as provided herein, to check the correctness of the Contractor’s stakes. Any apparent errors will be immediately called to the Contractor’s attention and the Contractor will be required to make the necessary correction before the stakes are used for construction purposes. The Contractor shall provide the Engineer a copy of any field notes and layout diagrams produced during the course of the project.

Responsibility of the Contractor.

The Contractor shall establish from the given survey points and contract plan information, all the control points or reference points necessary to layout the ADA Ramp elements. The Contractor shall furnish and place the layout stakes. The Contractor shall notify the Engineer when the stakes are complete and available for review and approval by the Engineer at least 3 working days in advance of the actual construction.

Field notes shall be kept in standard survey field notebooks and those books shall become the property of the Department at the completion of the project. All notes shall be neat, orderly, and in accepted form.

Measurement and Payment. This work will be paid for at the contract lump sum price for

CONSTRUCTION LAYOUT (SPECIAL).
