DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK: Contractor(s) shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, tools and incidentals necessary to replace Virginia Creeper Bridges 35 & 36 with pre-fabricated steel truss bridge structures. Project includes installation of new steel truss bridges and associated concrete abutments, riprap placement, excavation and embankment for minor trail relocation, placement of stone trail surfacing, removal of existing bridges, and associated clearing, grubbing, erosion and sediment control, and seeding.

RANGE OF THE GOVERNMENT ESTIMATE: The government estimate for this project is within the range of $500,000 and $1,000,000. This does not mean that our estimate for the price of the work falls anywhere within that range; it means that our estimate is an actual number that lies at a specific point between those two values.
