Mack Bayou Road Pedestrian Improvements Phase I

The Mack Bayou Road Pedestrian Improvements Phase 1 project, managed by Walton County, Florida, involves the construction of a multi-use path in Santa Rosa Beach. The scope of work covers approximately 10,845 linear feet starting near Monarch Drive and ending at Harborview Road, and includes the milling and resurfacing of the existing road, installation of asphalt and concrete surfaces, and the construction of headwalls and gravity walls. The project is funded through a State-Funded Grant Agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation and must adhere to FDOT, AASHTO, and OSHA standards. Environmental verification has confirmed that the milling and widening activities qualify for regulatory exemption under Florida Administrative Code. The contract is being awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder via a sealed bid process. The performance period begins within 10 calendar days of the Notice to Proceed, with 120 days allowed for substantial completion and an additional 30 days for punch list completion. Key requirements include the presence of a full-time on-site superintendent, E-Verify compliance for all personnel, and a restriction limiting subcontracting to no more than 50 percent of the total work. The contractor is required to maintain comprehensive general liability, automobile, and builder's risk insurance, while naming Walton County as an additional insured. Final acceptance is contingent upon the submission of as-built plans and an Engineer's Certification of Completion.
