Project 2351 - sinking creek rehab project

The state and local contract opportunity for Project 2351 - Sinking Creek Rehab Project is a comprehensive municipal infrastructure rehabilitation initiative issued by Bristol City in Virginia. The procurement focuses on critical sewer system infrastructure improvements, specifically involving the installation of approximately 403 linear feet of 8-inch gravity sewer and the implementation of UV-cured CIPP (Cured-In-Place Pipe) liner across approximately 9,470 linear feet of existing sewer lines with diameters ranging from 8 to 12 inches. Key deliverables include 70 lateral line to main line connection rehabilitations and the locating and raising of 5 existing manholes. The project was posted on November 6, 2025, with proposals due by December 9, 2025, indicating a relatively short procurement timeline of approximately one month. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed, contractors will likely be assessed on technical capability, infrastructure rehabilitation experience, and ability to complete the complex municipal infrastructure upgrade within specified parameters.

Regarding potential vendor participation, no explicit set-aside designations or specific enterprise restrictions are noted in the provided documentation. The project appears open to qualified infrastructure rehabilitation contractors with demonstrated expertise in municipal sewer system reconstruction and rehabilitation techniques. The absence of specified disadvantaged business enterprise requirements suggests a competitive bidding process accessible to a broad range of qualified contractors. Given the scope of work involving nearly 9,500 linear feet of sewer line rehabilitation and multiple connection and manhole improvements, potential contractors should anticipate a substantial infrastructure investment. While a precise budget range is not specified, similar municipal infrastructure rehabilitation projects typically range from $500,000 to $2 million, depending on complexity, materials required, and site-specific challenges. Interested contractors should carefully review the full project specifications and be prepared to demonstrate comprehensive technical capabilities in underground infrastructure rehabilitation.
