The City of Dallas is soliciting bids for the construction of intersection improvements at the intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Meadow Street under solicitation number CIZ26-TPW-4002, with a projected bid deadline of 1:00 p.m. on Friday, August 7, 2026. Bids must be submitted electronically through the BonfireHub portal, and the original bid security in the form of a cashier’s check or bid bond must be delivered in person to the Office of Procurement Services at Dallas City Hall. A pre-bid meeting will be held via Microsoft Teams on July 22, 2026, to provide project clarifications. The work involves pavement and infrastructure upgrades governed by the City of Dallas Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (Fifth Edition, November 2017) and the October 2021 Addendum, alongside compliance with TXDOT and TMUTCD standards. Core deliverables include removal of existing concrete sidewalks and curb and gutter, preparation of the right-of-way, and installation of traffic control systems such as signal heads, controller cabinets, fiber optic cable, and conduit. The City will furnish major equipment including the ATC 352i signal controller cabinet and CCTV/PTZ cameras. All materials must be sourced from approved producers listed in the Material Producer List, and pavement markings must conform to specified nomenclature based on type, symbol, and thickness in mils. The contract emphasizes socioeconomic goals through the DRIVE Policy, allocating up to 20 evaluation points across three non-price factors: SBE Utilization, Local Economic Impact, and Engagement Score. Contractors must demonstrate commitment to Small Business Enterprises, local workforce hiring, and subcontractor payment history. Offerors must provide certification of SBE, MBE, WBE, VOSB, or SDVOSB status through approved entities and submit comprehensive documentation including the SBE Affidavit, Good Faith Effort forms, and Prime Self-Performance Declaration. Failure to meet SBE participation targets or changes in subcontractor composition require prior approval using City form BEH-FRM-501.PAC. Work must be self-performed by the prime contractor’s own workforce, adhering to Commercially Useful Function requirements, with liquidated damages of $500 per day for delays. Acceptance occurs on-site after inspection by the City’s Traffic Signal Engineer, with compliance verified against NEC, NEMA, UL, and NRL standards. Payments are submitted
