The Tunica County Board of Supervisors is soliciting sealed bids for the Expo Center Walking Trail project, a Federal-Aid infrastructure development initiative located in Mississippi. The procurement encompasses comprehensive construction services, specifically involving sidewalk construction around a pond and the development of a timber pier. The project is identified by Federal-Aid Project No. STP-0072-00(015)LPA / 109379-701000 and requires bidders to provide all necessary labor, equipment, and materials as specified in the bid documentation. Bid documents are available through Neel-Schaffer's website, with mandatory online registration for plan holders. Sealed bids will be received until 3:00 PM local time on Monday, September 29, 2025, with bid publication dates set for August 28, 2025, and September 4, 2025. Bidders must submit a 5% bid security in the form of a Certified Check or Bidder's Bond, and the successful contractor will be required to provide a 100% performance and payment bond. The project will adhere to the 2017 Edition of the Mississippi Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction.

The procurement emphasizes opportunities for disadvantaged and women's business enterprises (DBE/WBE), with the Tunica County Board of Supervisors committed to ensuring non-discrimination throughout the bidding process. The county reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to waive technical irregularities in submissions. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the federal-aid classification suggests potential significant funding for the infrastructure project. Electronic bid submissions are accepted through a specified website, with bidders required to submit a document representing the bid envelope cover. The procurement appears to be open to qualified contractors capable of meeting the technical specifications and demonstrating compliance with federal-aid project requirements. No incumbent vendors are mentioned in the available documentation, and the project seems to represent a new infrastructure development initiative for the Expo Center area.
