The Illinois Department of Transportation is requesting electronic bids for Contract 68K90, a highway construction project consisting of variable-depth HMA patching on US Route 24 and resurfacing of approximately 1,000 feet of rest area roadway in Fulton County, with bids due June 12, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. in the iCX-Integrated Contractors Exchange system.

The project spans 0.402 mile of gross length on US Route 24 (FAP 317/317A), beginning approximately 1.1 miles southwest of the intersection of US Route 24 and Old Weaver Highway and extending to the Rest Area west of Little America Lane. Work on US Route 24 includes correction of superelevation on the eastbound curve, variable-depth milling, variable-depth hot-mix asphalt overlay, shoulder improvements, guardrail work, and related collateral work. Rest area work includes variable-depth milling, pavement widening, hot-mix asphalt overlay, shoulder improvements, and collateral work as shown in contract plans. Traffic control shall maintain a minimum of one through lane open on US Route 24 at all times; the rest area shall be closed to traffic for the construction duration. A Changeable Message Sign must be placed at the rest area for seven calendar days prior to closure and at opposite ends of project locations. The contractor must give Don Hoffman, IDOT District 4 Traffic Control Technician, 21-day notice prior to starting lane closures.

The contract is funded wholly or in part with Federal-aid funds and requires standard certifications as part of the proposal and contract; false or fraudulent certification constitutes breach of contract and potential grounds for termination. IDOT reserves the right to determine responsibility at time of award, reject any or all proposals, and readvertise the improvement. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
