IFB - 250 west reconstruction

The City of St. George is requesting bids for 250 West Street Reconstruction from Blackridge Drive to Tech Ridge Parkway under Invitation for Bid 26-284, with bids due August 11, 2026 and a mandatory pre-bid meeting scheduled for July 29, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. at City Hall Community Development Conference Room; failure to attend results in automatic disqualification.

The project scope encompasses approximately 8,300 linear feet of roadway reconstruction including demolition of existing pavement and infrastructure, installation of storm drain piping (28-inch HDPE and 24-inch ADS), 8-inch PVC water line installation, asphalt paving (4-inch over 12-inch gravel base), concrete sidewalk (4-inch), curb and gutter installation, eight ADA access ramps, and utility coordination for sewer, power, telecommunications, broadband, and gas services. Geotechnical conditions require removal and replacement of subgrade materials to 5 feet depth with specific low-permeability fill to address moderately to highly expansive mudstone; existing water and sewer piping must be retained. The project mandates compliance with City of St. George Construction Design Standards, Utah Administrative Codes, and International Plumbing and Building Codes.

The contractor must perform at least 45% of total work with its own staff. Construction must commence within 20 calendar days of the Notice of Award and be completed within 90 calendar days from Notice to Proceed, with a maximum of 60 calendar days for full road closure. The contractor must certify compliance with E-Verify employment eligibility verification requirements. Questions are due August 5, 2026. A one-year warranty period from final acceptance is required.
