MT ERFO NP YELL 2022-1(3), Yellowstone NP Rescue Creek Bridge Replacement

The Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration is seeking construction services for the replacement of the Rescue Creek Bridge in Yellowstone National Park, located approximately one mile south of Gardiner, Montana. This project involves constructing a single span, 170-foot long steel truss bridge with timber deck and shallow foundation concrete abutments to replace the original trail bridge that was destroyed during the 2022 flood event in Yellowstone National Park. The work will be solicited exclusively to contractors already holding positions on the Yellowstone/Grand Teton Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC), with solicitation documents expected to be posted in Summer/Fall 2025. The contract will be structured as a firm-fixed-price task order, and interested parties can find information about eligible MATOC contractors on the Federal Highway Administration website. The solicitation documents, including specifications and plans, will be posted on SAM.gov when released, with completion anticipated for Fall/Winter 2026.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designation and is restricted to existing MATOC contractors for the Yellowstone/Grand Teton region. The project spans a relatively short distance of 0.08 miles but involves complex bridge construction work with an estimated value ranging between $700,000 and $2,000,000. The timeline extends from the anticipated solicitation period in Summer/Fall 2025 through a tentative completion date in Fall/Winter 2026, providing approximately one year for construction activities. The project falls under NAICS code 237310 for Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction, reflecting its specialized infrastructure nature. Contractors interested in this opportunity must already be part of the designated MATOC framework and should monitor SAM.gov for the formal solicitation release.
