The City of Hampton, Georgia, located in Henry County, is seeking bids for the E.

The procurement is an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for a construction project that involves furnishing and installing materials, labor, tools, and equipment for complete intersection redesign. Key project deliverables include erosion and sediment control, demolition, grading, utility coordination, creating parking spaces, installing ADA-compliant sidewalk ramps, constructing sidewalks, paving, stabilization, and landscaping. The project specifications require a mandatory pre-bid conference on June 9th, 2025, at Hampton City Hall, with sealed bids due by 1:00 PM EST on June 19th, 2025. Bidders must submit comprehensive documentation including a 5% bid bond, contractor affidavits, references, insurance certificates, and a valid Georgia General Contractors License. The City intends to award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder, with potential selection of bid alternates, and expects substantial project completion within 150 calendar days and final completion within 180 calendar days.

The solicitation does not explicitly specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged business enterprises, though standard municipal procurement practices often include such provisions. Bidders will be required to provide performance and payment bonds, each for 100% of the total bid amount, with potential liquidated damages of $250 per day for substantial completion delays and $500 per day for final completion delays. The project includes a contingency allowance of $75,000 and will involve unit price bidding for various line items such as layout, mobilization, traffic control, erosion control, demolition, grading, curb and gutter installation, sidewalk construction, and thermoplastic striping. The design engineer is Pond and Company, with Falcon Design Consultants, LLC serving as the owner's representative. While a specific budget range is not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the project suggests a significant municipal infrastructure investment.
