Call 203 09826

The project involves replacing two existing structures over Cougar Creek, located seven miles north of West Yellowstone, with two new separate bridges—one for highway use and one for recreation. Both new bridges will be constructed on the same alignments as the current structures to minimize changes to road grade and alignment, ensuring minimal disruption to traffic flow and surrounding terrain. Minor roadway modifications will be made at the bridge approaches, including installation of necessary guardrails to meet current safety standards. The work is focused on maintaining operational continuity while upgrading infrastructure to modern specifications. This solicitation, designated as Call 203 09826, is issued by the Montana Department of Transportation under NAICS Code 237310 for highway construction. The opportunity is open to eligible contractors through a state-level procurement process with a submission deadline set for August 27, 2026. The project site is located in Gallatin County, Montana, and all performance activities must occur at or near Cougar Creek. The agency has not specified any set-aside provisions, indicating the contract is open to all qualified bidders without preference based on business size or type. All proposals must be submitted via the designated online portal, and responses are expected to address both engineering and logistical requirements for seamless integration of the new bridges into the existing corridor.
