The City of Douglasville, Georgia, is requesting proposals for traffic signal and intersection improvements at Rose Avenue at Roselake Circle/Fairways Drive, with proposals due July 16, 2026 at 4:00 PM EDT and a mandatory pre-bid meeting on June 25 at 11:00 AM at Hunter Park Arts & Craft Room. Attendance at the mandatory pre-bid meeting is a prerequisite for proposal eligibility; firms that do not attend will be deemed non-responsive and ineligible for award.

The scope encompasses traffic signal upgrades with mast arms and video detection with underground connectivity; ADA-compliant sidewalk improvements; and pavement marking and striping enhancements.

Proposers must demonstrate over five years of business operation and provide references for projects exceeding $70,000 completed within the last two years. The City reserves the right to reject bids from vendors with prior performance failures or those that have incurred criminal sanctions, bonding claim denials, or litigation issues within the past five years.

Proposals must include a 5% bid bond. Successful contractors must provide performance and payment bonds each equal to 100% of the contract sum. General liability insurance with minimum limits of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate, plus an umbrella policy of at least $1 million aggregate, is mandatory, along with workers' compensation, temporary facilities and equipment coverage, and builder's risk insurance. All bonds and insurance must be from A.M. Best-rated A (Excellent) or better surety companies licensed in Georgia and listed in U.S. Treasury Circular 570.
