Estimated quantities: 240–260 cubic yards of fill dirt, 60–70 cubic yards of pit run road base, and 375–400 cubic yards of slope riprap. Contractors must source and deliver all materials, handle site preparation and cleanup, and cover all mobilization costs.

Contractor eligibility requires a minimum of five years' experience performing similar work in Utah, current insurance in the state, and possession or ability to secure all necessary equipment including data-logging GPS capability. A pre-work conference is mandatory before groundwork begins. Contractors must maintain equipment mobilized and dedicated to the project until all phases are 100% complete and guarantee pricing through June 30, 2026.
