FY 2025 Resurfacing & Patching Project

The Grady County Board of Commissioners is seeking sealed bids for the FY 2025 Resurfacing & Patching Project, a comprehensive roadway improvement initiative. The project involves resurfacing Spring Hill Road for 1.40 miles and Union Springs Road for 0.80 miles, along with multiple location spot patching of roadways. Bidders must be pre-qualified Georgia Department of Transportation Contractors and submit their license number with their proposal. Sealed bids will be received until 11:00 AM on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, at the Grady County Board of Commissioners office located at 33 17th Ave NW, Cairo, GA 39827. The total contract time is 180 consecutive calendar days for substantial completion, with a total of 194 consecutive calendar days allowed for complete contract close-out. Bidding documents can be obtained from Watkins & Associates, LLC for a non-refundable fee of $300.00 per set, and no bid may be withdrawn for 60 days after the closing time.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though bidders must comply with the Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act and participate in the E-Verify program. Bidders are required to submit a Bid Bond or certified cashier's check for 10% of the bid amount, and the successful contractor will need to provide Performance and Payment Bonds for 100% of the contract amount. The project will be funded through the Local Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST), suggesting a fixed funding mechanism. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the roadway improvements and the requirement for detailed bidding documentation indicates a significant infrastructure investment. Prospective bidders can examine the bidding documents at the Grady County Board of Commissioners or at Watkins & Associates, LLC between 8 A.M. and 5 P.M., Monday through Friday, to fully understand the project scope and requirements.
