2026 SE Pavement Overlay Project

The City of Scappoose, Oregon is soliciting sealed bids for the 2026 SE Pavement Overlay Project (Bid #2026-04), a public works construction project requiring variable depth grinding, asphalt pavement base lift and pre-leveling, asphalt concrete pavement overlay, and incidental work on SE 3rd Street, SE Myrtle Street, SE Oak Street, and SE Elm Street. The scope of work includes 2,400 square yards of cold plane pavement removal at 0-2 inch depth, 2,200 square yards of full-depth asphalt removal and replacement, 1,410 tons of Level 2 dense asphalt concrete pavement overlay, base lift materials totaling 370 tons, manhole and valve box adjustments, and drainage curb installation. Key deliverables include submission of a detailed critical path method project work schedule, weekly three-week look-ahead schedules, traffic control plans, and erosion and sediment control plans; contractors must maintain at least one lane of traffic at all times with no more than 10-minute traffic holds and must achieve substantial completion by September 30, 2026. Qualified bidders must be registered with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board, comply with prevailing wage requirements under ORS 279C.800-279C.870 and the Davis-Bacon Act, provide a 10 percent bid guaranty, and submit a responsibility determination form, non-collusion affidavit, and disclosure of first-tier subcontractors with contract values exceeding $350,000 or 5 percent of the project bid (minimum $15,000). Sealed bids are due May 26, 2026 at 2:00 PM PST, with first-tier subcontractor disclosure forms due by 4:00 PM the same day; questions must be submitted at least five calendar days prior to bid opening, anticipated Notice of Intent to Award is June 2, 2026, and City Council contract authorization is scheduled for June 15, 2026, with work to commence within ten days of Notice to Proceed.

The project encourages participation from small, minority, women, and veteran-owned businesses, though no specific set-aside percentages are mandated for these disadvantaged enterprise categories. Bidders must certify compliance with non-discrimination requirements for subcontractor selection and acknowledge all addenda in their bid submissions. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the procurement documents. Upon contract award, successful bidders will be required to obtain performance and payment bonds equal to the total contract amount, with progress payments due 30 days following receipt of the contractor's complete application for payment or 15 days from approval, whichever is earlier, and 5 percent retainage held by the City. Liquidated damages are assessed at $500 per calendar day for failure to meet the September 30, 2026 completion deadline, and the specific contract award value is not disclosed in the available procurement documents, though the project scope indicates a mid-sized municipal construction contract typical of Oregon public works projects.
