Request for Proposals U. S. Highway 6 Sidewalk Segment Construction

The Town of Keystone, located in Summit County, Colorado, is seeking proposals for a construction management and general contractor services project involving the construction of a sidewalk segment along U.S. Highway 6. The project requires a comprehensive proposal that includes unit pricing, detailed project approach, and contractor qualifications, with construction planned to begin in July/August 2025 and achieve final completion by September 2025. Proposers must develop a traffic control plan, review design plans, and complete construction work according to 2024/2025 CDOT Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Specifications. The project involves infrastructure improvements adjacent to a recently approved 54 multi-family residential development and will include a cantilevered retaining wall designed by Ten Mile Engineering, Inc. Evaluation criteria will focus on multiple factors beyond cost, including the contractor's experience with mountain towns, proposed methodology, timeline, references, and overall project understanding. The proposal release date is May 16, 2025, with a submittal deadline of June 6, 2025, at 5:00 pm.

The Request for Proposals does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Funding for the project will be sourced from local funds and potential state grants, with the contractor responsible for meeting all grant-related requirements and documentation. While no incumbent vendors are identified, the project requires close coordination with the Town of Keystone and the adjacent residential development's developer. The technical specifications indicate a complex infrastructure project with specific engineering requirements, including a 6-foot-tall retaining wall with precise structural calculations and compliance with IBC 2018, ACI 318-14, and TMS 402-16 building codes. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the project involves significant infrastructure construction, suggesting a substantial investment. The newly incorporated Town of Keystone, which became an official municipality in February 2024, views this sidewalk project as a key priority for community infrastructure development.
