Sidewalk Trip Hazard Mitigation

The City of Edgerton, Wisconsin, located in Racine County, is soliciting proposals for the 2025 Trip Hazard Mitigation Project, a municipal infrastructure improvement initiative focused on sidewalk accessibility and safety. The procurement seeks qualified contractors to address public sidewalk trip hazards through precision cutting or scarifying of sidewalk sections with elevation rises between 0-1 inches, with the primary objective of creating ADA-compliant surfaces featuring a 12:1 slope/ramp requirement. Contractors must provide a per linear foot cost for the work, which includes labor, materials, and comprehensive project area surveying to identify specific trip hazards. The Request for Quote (RFQ) requires bidders to submit detailed proposals that demonstrate technical capability to execute precise sidewalk modifications. Submission of quotes is due by 2:00 pm on June 30, 2025, with all documentation to be submitted via email or mail to the city's Municipal Services Director, Zach Nelson. Interested contractors can obtain additional project details and documentation through the City of Edgerton's official website (www.edgerton.wi.gov/) or by contacting Nelson directly at znelson@edgerton.wi.gov or 608-884-3341.

The RFQ does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types, suggesting the opportunity is open to all qualified contractors capable of meeting the technical specifications. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the project includes a comprehensive requirement for contractors to submit an itemized list documenting the quantity and specific addresses of work performed upon project completion. The total project budget is capped at $20,000, providing potential bidders with clear financial parameters. The accompanying 2025 Sidewalk Map provides visual guidance on the project's geographical scope, covering various residential and potentially commercial districts within Edgerton's municipal boundaries. Contractors will be expected to integrate their work seamlessly with existing municipal infrastructure, ensuring minimal disruption and maintaining the city's sidewalk system's overall integrity and accessibility standards.
