The City of Marietta, located in Cobb County, Georgia, has issued a Request for Bids (RFB-25-51309) for the Atlanta Street & Waverly Way Intersection Improvements project, which aims to enhance traffic flow, safety, and pedestrian accessibility. The project involves installing a new traffic signal system, constructing decorative brick crosswalks, adding brick sidewalks, resurfacing the roadway, and updating striping to improve mobility for both vehicles and pedestrians. Contractors must possess a valid Georgia Utility Contractor License for any utility work and will be required to submit a 5% bid bond or cashier's/certified check with their proposal. A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for December 3, 2024, at 10:00 AM, with bid submissions due on December 13, 2024, at 10:00 AM. The project has a 60-calendar day completion timeline, with specific restrictions on lane closures between 6:00 A.M. and 9:00 A.M. or 4:00 P.M. and 7:00 P.M. Monday through Friday, which require prior approval. The City reserves the right to award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder and to reject any or all bids.

The City of Marietta has committed to affirmatively ensuring that minority business enterprises will be afforded full opportunity to submit bids without discrimination based on race, color, sex, or national origin. Successful bidders will be required to comply with the Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act and provide a 110% labor and material payment bond. Payment will be made monthly based on approved invoices for quantities of completed work. While no specific budget range was explicitly stated in the documents, contractors should be prepared to demonstrate financial stability and technical capability to execute the intersection improvement project. The City maintains flexibility in the contract scope, with the potential to add or reduce work as needed. Potential bidders are strongly encouraged to visit the project site prior to submitting their proposals to fully understand the scope and requirements of the intersection improvements.
