Linda Vista and Comstock Intersection Upgrade

The City of San Diego is requesting bids on the Linda Vista and Comstock Intersection Upgrade, a traffic signal modernization and reconstruction project at the intersection of Comstock Street and Linda Vista Road under Bid No. L-27-2463-DBB-2-A, with bids due August 11, 2026, and a mandatory pre-bid meeting on July 21, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. (PDT) via Microsoft Teams. This contract is restricted to City-certified SLBE (Small Local Business Enterprise) and ELBE (Emerging Local Business Enterprise) firms only—a hard eligibility gate that filters all other vendors.

The scope includes upgrading existing traffic signal poles, electrical conduits, and improvements to existing curb ramps. The contract completion time is 183 working days. All work is subject to prevailing wage requirements under California Labor Code sections 1720–1861.

The City's estimated construction cost is $950,000. Prevailing wage rates apply. The prime contractor must hold a California contractor license classification A. Bid security of 10% of the total bid amount (for bids of $250,000 and above) is required in the form of a cashier's check, certified check, or corporate surety bond. A voluntary subcontractor participation goal of 10% applies to certified DBE, DVBE, WBE, MBE, SLBE, and ELBE subcontractors. All contractors and subcontractors must register with the City's vendor registration system, provide evidence of prequalification, submit payment and performance bonds and certificates of insurance, and comply with the City's Equal Opportunity Contracting Program and labor compliance obligations. Bids must be submitted electronically through the City's PlanetBids eBidding system. Contract execution is expected approximately 21 days after bid opening.
