Traffic Signal Smart Technology

The City of Beaumont Public Works Department is requesting bids on traffic signal smart technology implementation along the Highland Springs Avenue corridor under IFB R26-05, with bids due September 7, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. and a mandatory pre-bid meeting on August 19, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Prevailing wage under California Labor Code Section 1773 and California contractor licensing requirements apply — bidders must hold Class "A" and/or Class "C-10" licenses and perform at least 51% of contracted work with their own forces.

The scope encompasses traffic signal improvements at nine primary intersections along Highland Springs Avenue, integration of I-10 Caltrans ramp signals for unified corridor operation, Enterprise MyCity Traffic Management System licensing for nine units and one spare, and one NoTraffic Video Detection Camera and Nexus Unit. The project uses artificial intelligence technology to improve traffic mobility along the corridor. Work is located in Beaumont, California.

Contract duration shall not exceed 60 calendar days after procurement of long-lead materials, with liquidated damages of $2,000 per calendar day for non-completion. Three additive alternate bids are available: Additive A for two northern signals (Highland Springs & Sundance Drive and Oak Valley Parkway), Additive B for two Caltrans signals (I-10 eastbound and westbound ramps), and Additive C for CMU upgrades at nine locations.

The City will award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on the base bid. A bid bond of 10% of total bid price is required, with performance and payment bonds each equal to 100% of the successful bid amount required before contract execution. Subcontractors performing work exceeding one-half of one percent of the prime contractor's total bid or $10,000, whichever is greater, must be designated. Questions are due August 25, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Bid opening is September 7, 2026 at 11:30 a.m.; anticipated award is October 6, 2026 and notice to proceed October 19, 2026. Bids remain valid for 90 days following bid opening.
