Route 40 Paving & Sidewalk Improvements

The Town of Rocky Mount, Virginia is requesting proposals for paving and sidewalk improvements along Route 40 under RFP 20252311-01, with proposals due May 15, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. local time. Prospective bidders must hold Class A contractor licensing in Virginia.

The scope covers milling and replacement of three westbound lanes (including center and turn lanes) along a 0.48-mile section between mile markers 33.67 and 34.15. All pavement replacement activities must be completed during nighttime hours. The work includes removal of 2 inches of existing pavement and replacement with 2 inches of SM-9.5D asphalt, installation of epoxy pavement markings (Type B, Class III), and construction of pedestrian crosswalks and curb ramps at the intersection of Route 40, School Board Road, and Marketplace Drive to meet current VDOT standards. Coordination of potential right-of-way and utility impacts is required prior to installation. A bid alternate is available for milling and repaving the two eastbound lanes along the same 0.48-mile section under identical installation requirements.

The Town encourages Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) firm participation and does not discriminate against faith-based organizations. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
