The Northbound Boone Bridge Joint Rehabilitation Project, solicitation S-73000-00018174, is a public improvement contract issued by the Oregon Department of Transportation for work on the I-5 bridge over the Willamette River at MP 283.11. The scope of work includes the construction of temporary and permanent bridge joints, the application of premixed polymer concrete overlay, installation of pavement markings, and the preparation and coating of existing steel and bridge piers on Bridge No. 02254A. The project also requires comprehensive work zone traffic control, including the use of flaggers and specific signage, and strict adherence to environmental laws regarding the disposal of excavated soil and the management of lead-based coatings. The estimated project value for bonding purposes is between 2,000,000 and 2,500,000 dollars. The contract will be awarded to the responsible bidder who submits the lowest responsive bid, with evaluations considering financial history, bonding capacity, and contract performance records. Bidders must submit their packages via the OregonBuys portal by November 10, 2026, including a bid security of 10 percent of the total bid amount. The successful contractor must provide performance and payment bonds for 100 percent of the contract value and comply with Oregon tax laws, State Buy America requirements, and BOLI prevailing wage rates. Quality assurance is critical, with specific requirements for the Modular Bridge Joint System and detailed marking and packaging standards for steel and treated posts. The project is anticipated to be funded with state funds and is governed by the laws of the State of Oregon.
