Citywide Sidewalk Improvements Phase Ii

The City of Corona Public Works Department is seeking bids for Phase II of its Citywide Sidewalk Improvements project, identified as Bid #ST-2027-04 and NIB 27-003CA, with a response deadline of August 14, 2026. The scope requires the complete removal of approximately 347,704 square feet of existing concrete sidewalk up to six inches thick and the installation of new Portland cement concrete sidewalk in full compliance with City standards. Additional work includes clearing and grubbing, potholing, construction surveying, traffic control, implementation of Best Management Practices for erosion and sediment control, and public notification. Work must be performed quadrant-by-quadrant to minimize disruption. Alternate bid items allow for the removal of 54 trees with diameters up to 24 inches and 162 trees exceeding 25 inches in diameter, along with root pruning for those trees, though these are optional and subject to city election. The project is governed by the 2024 Greenbook Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction and must adhere to ASTM and AASHTO standards as applicable. All materials, including plastic pipe, must be clearly marked with manufacturer, nominal size, and schedule, and valve boxes must be heat-branded with designated codes. The contract follows a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable award methodology, with selection based on the lowest combined total of base and elected alternate bids from responsive and responsible bidders. Bidders must meet all technical requirements, hold valid California contractor licenses, provide proof of DIR registration, maintain required insurance coverage, and comply with the Iran Contracting Act and OSHA compliance standards. No federal FAR clauses are incorporated; instead, the contract relies on locally defined provisions and requirements. Submission must be made electronically through the PlanetBids portal by the deadline, with no physical copies accepted for the initial proposal. Final acceptance occurs on-site after inspection by the City Engineer and approval by the Public Works Director, contingent upon submission of as-built drawings, certified test reports, maintenance manuals, and completion of all contractual obligations. Payment is tied to unit prices and measured quantities, though no pricing data is provided in the bid schedule, suggesting prices are to be submitted by offerors. The performance period is limited to 300 working days from the notice to proceed, with a seven-day move-in period preceding work commencement. All work must occur within the City of Corona, and the contractor assumes full liability for defective materials or
