Gay Road Drainage Project

The Town of Brookfield, located in Worcester County, Massachusetts, is soliciting sealed bids for the Gay Road Improvement Project, a comprehensive infrastructure enhancement initiative. The procurement is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) requiring MassDOT prequalified Highway-Construction contractors to execute a multifaceted road infrastructure upgrade. The project scope includes installing approximately 970 linear feet of 12-inch drainage pipe, constructing drainage structures, performing full-depth pavement reclamation, implementing 1,450 linear feet of asphalt berm, and placing approximately 3,800 tons of hot mix asphalt. Electronic bids will be accepted until Friday, June 13, 2025, at 11:00 AM EST through www.biddocsonline.com, with bidders required to submit a bid bond or certified/bank check for 5% of their total bid amount. Evaluation criteria will likely include compliance with technical specifications, contractor qualifications, and overall project cost, with the Town of Brookfield retaining the right to reject any or all bids.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though standard Massachusetts public procurement regulations will apply. The total estimated project value is $1,241,300, with the successful contractor required to provide 100% Performance and Labor and Material Payment Bonds. Contract documents are available electronically at www.BidDocsOnline.com with a refundable deposit of $50.00 per set, with a maximum of two sets available. The project is subject to prevailing wage rates under Massachusetts General Laws, which will impact labor cost considerations. Contractors must demonstrate MassDOT Highway-Construction prequalification and ability to integrate with existing road infrastructure. No incumbent vendors are specifically mentioned, and the procurement appears to be a new infrastructure development project focused on comprehensive road and drainage improvements in the Brookfield area.
