2026 overlay & reconstruction project

Summit County, Utah is procuring construction services for its 2026 Overlay and Reconstruction Project (PW-01-26), a comprehensive pavement and infrastructure improvement initiative across seven geographic areas including East Henefer Road, Mahogany Hills, Summit Park, Jeremy Ranch, Justice Center, South Summit (Democrat Alley), and Henefer City. The project encompasses asphalt paving, milling, concrete work, and storm drainage improvements, with primary deliverables including approximately 12,892 tons of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) with maximum aggregate specifications, 20,223 square yards of 2-inch rotomilling, 4,982 linear feet of edge milling, 683 gallons of pavement marking paint, concrete curb and gutter removal and replacement, installation of 18-inch HDPE culvert pipe, and manhole cover adjustments. Qualified bidders must possess a valid Utah contractor's license, demonstrate financial and equipment capacity to execute the work, and comply with 2017 Utah Department of Transportation Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, with HMA mix design specifications of PG 58-28 and stringent acceptance criteria for asphalt materials including binder content, gradation, density, and thickness requirements. Sealed proposals are due to the Summit County Engineering Office in Coalville, Utah by 1:00 PM on May 5, 2026, with public opening occurring immediately thereafter. Contractors must submit a bid bond or certified check equal to 5% of the total bid amount, with selected contractors required to execute performance and payment bonds equal to the contract value. Substantial completion of the entire project is required by October 1, 2026, except for the Justice Center Parking Lot which must be completed by July 24, 2026, with liquidated damages of $1,200 per day assessed for failure to meet these deadlines.

The procurement documents reference equal opportunity employment provisions but do not specify targeted set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses. Contractors are required to designate a Public Information Coordinator and maintain a local public information office for projects exceeding three weeks in duration, with potential weekly deductions of $1,000 to $10,000 for non-compliance. All work associated with the sanitary sewer system must conform to Snyderville Basin Water Reclamation District standards, with coordination required with SBWRD inspectors during work near existing manholes, and all excess materials including mill tailings must be disposed of offsite and stockpiled at the Three-Mile Landfill. Construction activities are restricted by Summit County noise ordinances prohibiting work between 9:00 PM and 7:00 AM Monday through Saturday and before 9:00 AM on Sunday. The contract specifies that payment is contingent upon acceptance by Summit County and is based on actual quantities of work performed and materials furnished, with unit prices established through the competitive bidding process for each of the seven project schedules; however, the specific total project budget or award value is not disclosed in the available procurement documents.
