About this file

This is a Notice to Bidders and Specifications document issued by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) for Contract No. 76M46, a culvert replacement project located on FAP Route 327A (US 50) in Marion County, Section 17CR-1. The project involves the removal and replacement of an existing reinforced concrete box culvert with a new 12-foot wide by 9-foot high by 91-foot-3-inch long double barrel concrete box culvert with concrete wingwalls over a tributary to Turkey Creek, approximately 1 mile east of Odin. Associated work includes excavation, seeding, pavement removal, hot-mix asphalt (HMA) binder and surface course, pipe culvert removal and installation, and pavement markings. Electronic bids must be submitted to the iCX-Integrated Contractors Exchange system no later than 12:00 p.m. on November 6, 2026, at which time bids will be publicly opened. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; IDOT reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to waive technicalities.

The contract is funded through Federal-aid Highway Program (NHPP-SY4I(665)) construction funds and is subject to applicable Federal and State law, including prevailing wage requirements, Equal Employment Opportunity provisions, and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation. The contractor must submit certified payroll documentation (Form SBE 48), Statements of Compliance (Form SBE 348), and Weekly DBE Trucking Reports (Form SBE 723) according to specified schedules. A critical constraint is the road closure time restriction limiting US 50 closure to a maximum of 45 consecutive calendar days, with liquidated damages assessed for each day of overrun beyond this limit. Bituminous materials cost adjustments will be applied if opted by the contractor when price fluctuations exceed 5 percent. The project requires coordination with multiple utilities including Ameren Illinois (gas and electric relocation anticipated by March 24, 2027), Charter Communications, FairPoint Communications, the Village of Odin, Tri-County Electric Cooperative, Wabash Communications, and CountryMark Cooperative. Contractors must comply with all supplemental specifications and recurring special provisions outlined in the document, including traffic control, 3D model feedback submission, storm water pollution prevention planning, and right-of-way corner restoration.

SECTION 17CR-1

BITUMINOUS MATERIALS COST ADJUSTMENTS (BDE)

Effective: November 2, 2006 Revised: August 1, 2017

Description. Bituminous material cost adjustments will be made to provide additional compensation to the Contractor, or credit to the Department, for fluctuations in the cost of bituminous materials when optioned by the Contractor. The bidder shall indicate with their bid whether or not this special provision will be part of the contract.

The adjustments shall apply to permanent and temporary hot-mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures, bituminous surface treatments (cover and seal coats), and preventative maintenance type surface treatments that are part of the original proposed construction, or added as extra work and paid for by agreed unit prices. The adjustments shall not apply to bituminous prime coats, tack coats, crack filling/sealing, joint filling/sealing, or extra work paid for at a lump sum price or by force account.

Method of Adjustment. Bituminous materials cost adjustments will be computed as follows.

CA = (BPIP - BPIL) x (%ACV / 100) x Q

Where: CA = Cost Adjustment, $.

BPIP = Bituminous Price Index, as published by the Department for the month the work is performed, $/ton ($/metric ton).

BPIL = Bituminous Price Index, as published by the Department for the month prior to the letting for work paid for at the contract price; or for the month the agreed unit price letter is submitted by the Contractor for extra work paid for by agreed unit price, $/ton ($/metric ton).

%ACV = Percent of virgin Asphalt Cement in the Quantity being adjusted. For HMA mixtures, the % ACV will be determined from the adjusted job mix formula. For bituminous materials applied, a performance graded or cutback asphalt will be considered to be 100% ACV and undiluted emulsified asphalt will be considered to be 65% ACV.

Q = Authorized construction Quantity, tons (metric tons) (see below).

For HMA mixtures measured in square yards: Q, tons = A x D x (Gmb x 46.8) / 2000. For HMA mixtures measured in square meters: Q, metric tons = A x D x (Gmb x 1) / 1000. When computing adjustments for full-depth HMA pavement, separate calculations will be made for the binder and surface courses to account for their different Gmb and % ACV.

For bituminous materials measured in gallons: Q, tons = V x 8.33 lb/gal x SG / 2000 For bituminous materials measured in liters: Q, metric tons = V x 1.0 kg/L x SG / 1000

Where: A = Area of the HMA mixture, sq yd (sq m).

D = Depth of the HMA mixture, in. (mm).

Gmb = Average bulk specific gravity of the mixture, from the approved mix design.

V = Volume of the bituminous material, gal (L).

SG = Specific Gravity of bituminous material as shown on the bill of lading.

SECTION 17CR-1

Basis of Payment. Bituminous materials cost adjustments may be positive or negative but will only be made when there is a difference between the BPIL and BPIP in excess of five percent, as calculated by:

Percent Difference = {(BPIL – BPIP) ÷ BPIL} × 100

Bituminous materials cost adjustments will be calculated for each calendar month in which applicable bituminous material is placed; and will be paid or deducted when all other contract requirements for the work placed during the month are satisfied. The adjustments shall not apply during contract time subject to liquidated damages for completion of the entire contract.
