The City of Belmont in Walthall County, Mississippi is soliciting sealed bids for the SEARCY ROAD/HIGHWAY 366 INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS project, which is being partially funded by Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) Grant #MS-20826. The procurement involves roadway construction work encompassing approximately 700 feet of grade, drain, base, and pave roadway, along with an at-grade timber railroad crossing. Sealed bids will be accepted until 10:00 AM on January 9, 2025, at the City Hall located at 94 Main Street, Belmont, MS 38827, with bids to be publicly opened and read aloud at that time. Bidders must provide bid security and are required to review contract documents available online at www.cceplanroom.com or obtain them from Plan House Printing and Graphics in Tupelo, MS. The contract will be awarded as a single job with no individual items let for separate work, and the successful bidder must furnish appropriate surety bonds.

The procurement encourages participation from minority and women's business enterprises, either as prime contractors or potential subcontractors. The project is subject to Davis-Bacon Act requirements, mandating payment of prevailing wages to workers. Bidders must demonstrate responsibility and responsiveness, with the City of Belmont reserving the right to waive informalities or reject any or all bids. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder. While specific budget details are not explicitly stated in the documentation, the project's scope suggests a substantial infrastructure investment focused on improving transportation infrastructure in the Belmont area. Potential bidders should be prepared to demonstrate relevant construction expertise, particularly in roadway and intersection improvement projects, and comply with all federal and local procurement regulations.
