St._Johns_River_Trail_-_Trail_Types.pdf

This is a trail types reference document supporting the City of Green Cove Springs' St. Johns River Trail - Phase 1 (Design) contract opportunity in Florida. The document appears to provide technical specifications and classifications for the various trail construction types that will comprise the 3.5-mile shared-use non-motorized trail project. The trail will connect Spring Park with the Shands Bridge/First Coast Expressway and includes three distinct construction methodologies: approximately 0.5 miles of concrete pilings over water, 0.5 miles of boardwalk over wetlands, and 2.5 miles of Department of Transportation (DOT)-standard sidewalk. The trail will be 8 feet wide throughout its length and requires design and permitting work to enable subsequent construction.

The City of Green Cove Springs is soliciting a qualified, experienced engineering firm to provide comprehensive consultant services for all prerequisite activities necessary for design and permitting. The project is partially funded through a state legislature appropriation administered by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). This document serves as supporting technical documentation to guide contractors in understanding the specific trail type requirements and specifications that will inform the design phase and eventual construction procurement.
