EUFAULA PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE GUARDRAIL REPAIRS

PROJECT: This project includes the removal of existing wood railing and the fabrication and install of new steel railing. LBYD has designed a new guardrail consisting of steel posts welded to the existing bridge structure below.

A cashier’s check or bid bond payable to the City of Eufaula in an amount not less than five (5) percent of the amount of the bid, but in no event more than $10,000.00, must accompany the bidder’s proposal. Performance and Payment Bonds and evidence of insurance required in the bid documents will be required at the signing of the Contract. The Owner intends to award a single contract for this work to a single General Contractor.

The Owner will accept proposals only from firms which demonstrate their experience and ability to perform the work necessary for this Project. The Owner reserves the right to reject any or all Bid Proposals, to waive any informality in any Bid Proposal, and to accept any Bid Proposal considered advantageous to the Owner. The Contract award, if made, will be made to the low responsive, responsible Bidder. No Bid Proposal may be withdrawn after the time for opening Bid Proposals has passed. The Owner reserves the right to hold Bid Proposals for a period of sixty (60) days after the date of receiving Bid Proposals. No bid proposal shall be accepted after the time stated for receiving bid proposals in this notice.

SALES AND USE TAXES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE CONTRACT AMOUNT as the City of Eufaula is exempt from sales and use taxes under state statute. The Base Bid (and all Alternate Bids) submitted on the proposal form WILL NOT INCLUDE the cost of all required taxes, including sales and use taxes: therefore, sales and use taxes will not be included in the Contract amount. Contractor must apply for tax exemption and follow requirements of Legislative Act 2013-205.

PRE-BID MEETING will be held at 205 E Barbour Street, Eufaula, AL  36027 at 11:00 AM CST on Tuesday, March 18, 2025.

Qualified General Contractor Bidders may obtain one (1) set of drawings and specifications in electronic format only from the Engineer upon request. Addenda and other bidding information will be issued only to holders of drawings and specifications distributed by the Engineer. Release of the Bid Documents to the bidder does not imply acceptance of the bidder’s qualifications by the Owner or Engineer.
