The scope covers replacing existing water lines with approximately 3,122 linear feet of new 8-inch ductile iron pipe and 84 linear feet of new 6-inch ductile iron pipe, plus associated service connections. Work includes removing or abandoning existing waterlines and services, installing fire hydrant assemblies and other waterline appurtenances, traffic control, erosion control, and pavement replacement. The project spans Roanoke County and Roanoke City. Bids must be submitted on a unit-price basis for a single prime contract. Bidders must provide their State Corporation Commission identification number as evidence of authorization to transact business in Virginia. Bid security is required under the Instructions to Bidders.
