Bidders must submit a 5% bid bond and comply with the Keep Jobs in Colorado Act, which requires at least 80% of labor to be performed by Colorado workers. The project is funded through the City of Wheat Ridge's Capital Improvement Program and will follow Colorado Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, 2021 Edition. The city will retain 5% of the contract value until final completion.
