Alexandria City, Virginia is seeking qualified contractors to deliver Bus Shelters Phase II, a construction procurement project posted on May 14, 2026, with a submission deadline of June 30, 2026. The project involves the design, fabrication, and installation of bus shelters across multiple locations within the city. Deliverables include final construction plans, structural components, and complete installation services that meet Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) standards and Alexandria City specifications. Key objectives encompass constructing durable, weather-resistant bus shelters that enhance public transit infrastructure while maintaining compliance with all applicable building codes, safety standards, and nondiscrimination provisions. Required qualifications for bidders include demonstrated experience in public construction projects, familiarity with VDOT forms and supplemental specifications, and the ability to obtain proper authorization and bonding. The evaluation criteria are outlined in the Invitation to Bid (ITB) document dated May 14, 2026, which specifies technical requirements, cost considerations, and compliance with city and state construction standards. Interested parties must review comprehensive documentation including final plans, special provisions, VDOT supplemental specifications, and city standard construction specifications to develop competitive proposals.

The solicitation documents include provisions requiring compliance with nondiscrimination requirements and firm data sheet submissions, though specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses are not explicitly detailed in the available file listings. All contractors must execute VDOT-required forms, including Forms C48, C104, and C105, and provide authorized signatory statements demonstrating legal capacity to enter into the contract. Integration with existing Alexandria City infrastructure and transit operations standards is mandatory, as evidenced by the inclusion of city standard construction specifications and VDOT supplemental provisions spanning multiple detailed technical documents. The contract award value is not specified in the posted information; however, the comprehensive scope of documentation—including 16 MB of final construction plans and 5 MB of VDOT supplemental specifications—suggests a substantial infrastructure project. Prospective bidders should contact Alexandria City's procurement department for clarification on budget parameters, evaluation timelines, and any scheduled pre-bid meetings or site visits.
