Install Bus Pull-Outs

The Arizona Department of Transportation is requesting bids for installing two bus pull-outs on Avenue A at 16th Street in Yuma, with bids due July 24, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. MST. Bidders must be prequalified with ADOT and included on the project Plansholder List as a Prime Contractor; electronic bidding is mandatory.

The scope includes adding a lane, expanding the pedestrian sidewalk, installing a new bus shelter, and performing related work at the intersection of Avenue A and 16th Street in the City of Yuma. Work is restricted to 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, unless approved by the Engineer. All labor must comply with prevailing wage rates as determined by the Secretary of Labor.

The programmed contract value is $327,000 with 65 working days allowed for completion. The project is federally funded and subject to DBE requirements under 49 CFR Part 26; however, during the transition period, no DBE goals are established and no participation will be counted toward overall DBE goals. Contractors are encouraged to use DBE neutral efforts.

Bidders must submit a proposal guaranty equal to 10 percent of their bid amount and execute Performance and Payment Bonds, each in 100 percent of the bid amount. Comprehensive insurance coverage is required, including general liability of $1,000,000 combined single limit, automobile liability of $1,000,000, and workers' compensation insurance; the City of Yuma must be named as an additional insured.

Questions must be submitted in writing through the Bid Express website at least three working days prior to bid opening. Within five calendar days following bid opening, contractors must register in the AZ UTRACS system and submit a Bidders/Proposers List confirmation email to BECO; failure to do so results in ineligibility for award. Contract documents, including plans and specifications, are available electronically from the ADOT Contracts and Specifications Group website.
