ITB - St Marys Intersection Improvement Project

The City of St. Marys in Camden County, Georgia is soliciting competitive bids for the St. Marys Intersection Improvement Project through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) procurement process. The project scope encompasses construction improvements at an existing intersection along St. Marys Road (stations 42+82.58 to 64+16.12), including widening to accommodate right and left turn lanes for the new Esplanade Boulevard, pavement removal, milling and resurfacing, pavement overbuild for slope correction, and modifications to existing drainage infrastructure. Deliverables include installation of new drainage structures and piping, re-grading of roadside swales, roadway striping and signage, sodding and grassing, erosion and sedimentation control measures, and maintenance of traffic along approximately 0.4 miles of St. Marys Road between Interstate 95 and Osprey Cove Subdivision. Contractors must meet specific qualifications including GDOT approval for crusher run granite material sourcing, compliance with GDOT and MUTCD traffic control standards, and adherence to the approved Land Disturbance Activity permit. Key objectives require maintaining one travel lane in each direction open at all times and implementing approved dewatering coordination with the Engineer of Record. The bid was posted on September 30, 2025, with bids due on October 30, 2025, at 2:00 PM, and Addendum #1 must be signed, dated, and included in all bid submittals.

The solicitation documents do not specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or restrictions on organizational types eligible to bid. Specific material requirements outlined in Addendum #1 establish that roadway base material must consist of crusher run granite from a GDOT-approved quarry, with recycled concrete aggregate and lime rock explicitly prohibited; existing pavement analysis from six cores indicates asphalt ranging from 6.5 to 8.75 inches, underlying concrete from 5 to 6.75 inches, and lime rock from 7 to 10 inches. The City prefers precast drainage structures, though site-built units are permitted with design calculations and material testing demonstrating GDOT compliance. No laydown area exists outside the right-of-way, and while project CAD files are unavailable, unlocked PDF files have been provided to bidders. The contract documents do not indicate a listed incumbent vendor, current contractor, or disclosed award value or budget range for this project.
