Ramps at Baltic Pl and Baltic Cir

The City of Aurora, Colorado is requesting bids on sidewalk and ramp reconstruction at E Baltic Place and E Baltic Circle under IFB Project No. 6158A, with bids due September 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Mountain Time through the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System (BidNet). The project must comply with current ADA requirements; ADA compliance is the central scope driver.

The work spans approximately 0.04 acres and includes removal and replacement of existing sidewalk, curb and gutter, and pedestrian ramps; asphalt removal and replacement; reset of existing signs and installation of new traffic signs; and pavement striping. This is a flatwork-only project with no utility impacts. Contract time is 120 consecutive calendar days plus 10 consecutive calendar days for mobilization from Notice to Proceed, with a completion deadline of November 30, 2026. Liquidated damages are assessed at $1,000 per calendar day for delays beyond completion.

The estimated project cost ranges from $50,000 to $80,000. Bid security in the form of a bid bond is required at no less than 5 percent of the bid amount. The successful bidder must execute a Performance Bond and separate Payment Bond within ten calendar days of Notice of Award. Progress payments will be made monthly at 95 percent of work completed with 5 percent retainage; retainage does not apply beyond 50 percent completion if work is satisfactory.

Colorado labor requirements mandate that a minimum of 80 percent of labor employed on the project must be Colorado residents. For construction contracts over $250,000, the SBE Program requires large businesses to award no less than 10 percent of subcontracting dollars to Small Business Enterprises if subcontracting occurs; this threshold does not apply to this project based on estimated cost.

A pre-bid conference was held August 31, 2026 via Microsoft Teams (optional attendance). The written question deadline was September 3, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. MT, with addenda issued by September 9 if necessary. Bid opening occurs thirty minutes after closure via Microsoft Teams.
