The contract completion time limit is set for September 27, 2024, and the evaluation will focus on selecting the responsive, responsible bidder submitting the lowest total bid amount. The bid schedule includes line items for mobilization, temporary traffic protection, pollution control plan, asphalt pavement saw cutting, cold plane pavement removal, Level 3 asphalt concrete mixture, and additional work for asphalt driveways.
