Design and Build Services to rebuild washed out roads, bridges and culverts

The Town of Kirby is seeking qualified Design-Build firms to undertake the comprehensive repair and reconstruction of critical infrastructure damaged by flash flooding on July 30, 2024. The project involves designing, permitting, right-of-way acquisition, utility coordination, and construction for one washed-out road and three bridges (box culverts) located in four specific areas, including Ridge Road, Bennett Road, Town Hall Road, North Kirby Road, and Brook Road. These projects are to be managed separately to ensure compliance with FEMA Public Assistance regulations, with each structure listed in the Vermont State bridge and culvert inventory. The scope includes replacing the completely washed-away Ridge Road bridge and roadbed, constructing a box culvert over Hawkins Brook on Town Hall Road, replacing a box culvert over Sheldon Brook on North Kirby Road, and repairing sections of Brook Road affected by washouts and bank failures. The contract, posted under solicitation number 61752, is expected to range between 5 million and 15 million dollars, with responses due by January 9, 2025. The project emphasizes a comprehensive approach from design through construction, requiring firms to develop proposals that address engineering, permitting, utility coordination, and construction services across the four locations. The Town of Kirby encourages qualified firms to submit their responses, with primary contact being Erin Patoine, reachable via email or phone. The project aims to restore essential transportation routes and infrastructure impacted by severe flooding, ensuring resilience and compliance with federal aid regulations.
