Klager Park Trail Construction

The Town of Pelham is soliciting bids for the construction of a 1.8-meter limestone trail in Klager Park under solicitation number 2026-PW-30. The project involves site preparation, including clearing and grubbing of vegetation, and the construction of the pathway as specified in the contract drawings. The successful contractor is responsible for all traffic control, resident notifications, and the full restoration of all disturbed areas, such as roads and side ditches, to Town of Pelham standards. All work must comply with the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority Permit, and any excess soil removed from the site must be delivered to Hillside Cemetery. The contract requires work to proceed continuously starting October 1, 2026, with a total duration of 40 working days and a final completion deadline of November 30, 2026. Bids must be submitted online by September 25, 2026, in two separate electronic envelopes for technical and pricing proposals, accompanied by a 10,000 dollar deposit. Awarding is subject to Town Council approval and a review of the contractor's qualifications and experience, and will not necessarily go to the lowest bidder. Post-award requirements include the submission of a health and safety plan, a construction schedule, and the provision of performance and labor and materials payment bonds within 14 days of acceptance. Payment is issued within 30 days of receipt of an invoice detailing the work completed.
