Replacement Airport Traffic Control Tower at Washington Manassas Airport

The City of Manassas is soliciting bids for replacement construction of the airport traffic control tower and base building at Washington Manassas Airport, with bids due September 24, 2026.

The scope encompasses demolition of the existing tower, site preparation, foundation work, structural steel installation, mechanical and electrical systems, and landscaping. The new tower must meet Federal Aviation Administration standards and specifications for airport traffic control facilities, including technical requirements for tower height, operational capabilities, safety systems, and environmental compliance. The project includes phased construction to maintain continuous tower operations throughout execution. Contractors must demonstrate experience with aviation facility construction and FAA compliance and coordinate with airport operations to minimize disruption to current traffic control functions.

The technical baseline specifies structural design standards, communications systems, power supply redundancy, and emergency systems. Site conditions details are provided in the project documentation, including existing infrastructure, utilities, and ground conditions that contractors must account for during planning and execution. Environmental and safety protocols protect airport personnel and the surrounding community.
