Milton Road over Hoods Creek Bridge Replacement

The Stanislaus County Public Works Department is soliciting proposals for the Milton Road over Hoods Creek Bridge Replacement project, a federally funded initiative to replace a functionally obsolete bridge with a new two-lane cast-in-place slab bridge. The scope of work encompasses comprehensive professional construction management services, including pre-construction, inspection, contract administration, and project closeout. Key technical requirements involve the implementation of temporary construction measures such as a shoe fly road and creek diversion, while adhering to Caltrans 2025 standard plans and specifications. The project emphasizes strict environmental compliance, requiring adherence to the Central Valley Water Board’s Basin Plan and the implementation of a Covered Species Mortality Reduction and Relocation Plan. Qualified consultants will be evaluated on a 100-point scale, with the highest weights placed on their understanding of the work, experience with similar projects, and staff quality. Proposals must be submitted via PlanetBids and in hard copy by the specified deadline, including a detailed scope of work, fee schedule, and required certifications such as EEO and Non-Collusion affidavits. The contract mandates compliance with federal and state regulations, including the Davis-Bacon Act for prevailing wages, 49 CFR Part 26 for Disadvantaged Business Enterprise participation, and specific insurance minimums for professional and general liability. Prime contractors are required to perform at least 30 percent of the work using their own organization.
