About this opportunity
This pre-solicitation notice seeks reconstruction of Mesa Verde National Park's Cliff Palace and Mesa Top Loop Roads by the Federal Highway Administration Department of Transportation. The project objectives are to enhance safety along the routes by addressing substandard conditions such as drop-offs, narrow lanes, and poor sightlines. Offerors will be evaluated based on their ability to address sight distance, rockfall catchment, clear zones, shoulders, and curve widening. The total estimated project cost ranges from $10 million to $14 million.
There is no set-aside designated for this full and open competition, which includes Schedule A to reconstruct 4.70 miles of Cliff Palace Loop, Option W to reconstruct 4.23 miles of Mesa Top Loop, and Options X through Z for additional roadway elements. Work must be completed over the next few years to improve safety across the 4.70 and 4.23 mile sections of the national park roadways for an estimated total budget between $10 million to $14 million.
Notice text
This is a Presolicitation notice. Plans and Specifications are not available.
The CO FTNP MEVE 100(1), Cliff Palace and Mesa Top Loop Roads Project is located in Mesa Verde National Park, between Cortez, CO (10.3 miles east) and Durango, CO (35.6 miles west). The route is part of the National Park Roadway System (NPS). This roadway system provides access for commercial, commuter and recreational users. The route is categorized as a rural arterial located in mountainous terrain at an elevation over 8,000 feet above sea level.
The current roadway alignment contains several substandard roadway conditions that result in unsafe driving conditions. These include drop-offs, substandard horizontal curves, poor sight-distance and minimal to no rockfall catchment. With its steep grade, winding curves, and narrow lanes with minimal shoulders, the Mesa Top and Cliff Palace loops are constricted segments of roadway in the Park. There is a concern for large-size vehicles, such as recreational vehicles towing campers, and semi-trailers meeting in opposing narrow lanes or on tight curves. Additionally, the steep grades and poor sight distance suitable to provide safe travel for passenger vehicles, commercial buses, and recreational vehicles through the one-way roadway loops.
The purpose of the project is to increase safety, maintain economic development, reduce maintenance and operating costs, enhance recreational travel and driver experience as well as preserve the existing transportation system. This project will improve roadway safety by addressing multiple substandard roadway conditions, including improving sight-distance, rock-fall catchment, clear zone, shoulder, and curve widening.
This project includes the following elements:
Schedule A: Cliff Palace Loop – 4.70 miles of reconstruction of roadway
Option W: Mesa Top Loop – 4.23 miles of reconstruction of roadway
Option X: Entrance Round-About
Option Y: Park Maintenance Road Culverts
Option Z: Rockfall and Road repair
This will be solicited as a full and open competition.
The estimated total cost is between $10,000,000 and $14,000,000.
