The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) 48400-RWPROPMGMT000660 for demolition and removal services in Putnam and Greene counties, Georgia, specifically near Greensboro at the intersection of Cherokee Drive and Lake Oconee Parkway (SR44). The procurement seeks a prequalified firm to provide complete demolition of improvements, structures, and encumbrances located in right-of-way and easement areas, with deliverables including demolition of CMU/concrete/stone walls and columns, removal of electrical fixtures and wiring, demolition of wayfinding sign structures, removal of abandoned concrete devices, and proper disposal of all debris in compliance with Georgia solid waste management regulations. The contract term is thirty days from the Notice to Proceed, with work subject to a $500 per day penalty for non-completion within the specified timeframe. Bids are due April 22, 2026, by 2:00 PM EST, with written questions due by April 17, 2026, by 2:00 PM EST. GDOT will award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on bid price analysis. Required qualifications include current prequalification status with GDOT in the Right of Way Property Management service class E-3 (Demolition), and contractors must provide a Performance and Payment Bond equal to 100 percent of the total bid price within ten business days of receiving the Notice of Intent to Award, along with certificates of insurance including workers compensation, commercial general liability (minimum $1,000,000 per occurrence), and automobile liability (minimum $1,000,000 combined single limit) within ten business days of receiving the purchase order, with GDOT named as an additional insured on all liability policies.

This procurement is restricted exclusively to firms holding current prequalification certificates from GDOT for Right of Way Property Management Services; any bid response from a firm not listed on GDOT's prequalification roster will not be considered for award. The asbestos inspection report indicates no regulated asbestos-containing materials were identified at the site, eliminating potential complications related to hazardous material handling. Work must commence within two weeks of providing the Performance and Payment Bond, or GDOT may terminate the contract. A restriction on communication is in effect from the advertisement date until the successful respondent is selected and announced; respondents are prohibited from communicating with GDOT staff regarding the solicitation or scope outside of formal question submission, with violations resulting in rejection of the offending respondent's submittal. No specific budget range or award value is disclosed in the solicitation documents; however, the contract value will be determined by the lowest responsive bid submitted by a prequalified contractor.
