Bridge Preventative Maintenance Program (BPMP) 5945(125) Countywide

The County of Kings is preparing to implement a preventative maintenance program targeting 11 bridges across the county, aiming to extend their service life and ensure public safety through a range of structural and aesthetic improvements. Key work elements include the application of methacrylate deck treatments to protect bridge surfaces, painting of bridge railings to prevent corrosion, replacement of deteriorated joint seals, repair of concrete spalls, and surface stripping to prepare areas for new treatments. This comprehensive approach is designed to address common degradation mechanisms before they escalate into more costly repairs or structural failures. The initiative is formally referenced as the Bridge Preventative Maintenance Program (BPMP) 5945(125) Countywide, with the solicitation published on August 6, 2026. All work will be conducted within Kings County, California, and the program is managed by the County’s engineering division. Primary points of contact for inquiries are Chief Engineer Mitchel Cabrera and Engineer III Patricio Villegas, who can be reached via phone or email for further details regarding scope, timeline, or contractor qualifications. The project is currently in the forecast stage, with no formal solicitation yet issued, but interested parties should monitor the official project link for updates leading to procurement.
