6th Street Sidewalk and Pedestrian Improvement Project

The City of Westmorland, California, is soliciting sealed proposals for two bundled concrete sidewalk and roadway projects in Imperial County, with a mandatory pre-bid conference at Westmorland City Hall on October 29, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. and proposals due by 2:00 p.m. on November 17, 2026. Bidders must hold a valid California Class A Contractor's license and be currently registered in the Department of Industrial Relations Public Works Contractor Registration System, and all subcontractors must hold Class A, B, or C licenses.

Project I, the 6th Street Sidewalk and Pedestrian Improvement Project (Federal-Aid Project No. CML-5278(022)), covers P.C.C. sidewalk, driveway, curb and gutter, and pavement repair on the south side of 6th Street between Center Street and B Street, funded through the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program. Project II, the 7th Street Widening project, covers similar P.C.C. sidewalk, driveway, curb and gutter installation and pavement widening along 7th Street between Martin Road and Center Street, funded through Imperial County APCD AB 617 Cap 8-13. Project I must comply with Build America, Buy America requirements for permanently incorporated iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials, and carries both Federal Davis-Bacon and California prevailing wage requirements, with the higher rate applying where they differ. Project II carries California prevailing wage requirements only. Both projects are subject to California Department of Industrial Relations compliance monitoring.

Bidders submit three separate sealed envelopes, one per project plus a Combined Total Bid Summary Form. The City will award to the responsive and responsible bidder with the lowest Combined Total Bid and reserves the right to reject any or all proposals.
