Mural Alley Downtown Revitalization Project

The Mural Alley Downtown Revitalization project is a Clean Cal-funded initiative managed by the City of Modesto to repair and refurbish a downtown alleyway. The scope of work includes the installation of concrete, permeable pavers, an archway structure, a roofed trash enclosure, and seating, as well as the implementation of new electrical infrastructure, lighting, and signage. Additionally, the contractor will renovate planter walls on 10th Street and install storm drainage systems. The project has an engineer's estimate of 1,500,000 dollars and a performance period of 98 working days, with an estimated start date in February 2027. The contract will be awarded to the apparent low bidder who meets all responsiveness and compliance criteria. Bidders must hold a Class A or B California State Contractor License and be registered with the DIR for public works. Key requirements include adherence to prevailing wages, Buy America provisions, and specific Disadvantaged Business Enterprise goals. The selected contractor must provide a 10 percent bid security, as well as performance and payment bonds for 100 percent of the total contract cost. Quality assurance measures include the construction of a minimum 6x6 foot mockup for approval and a one-year guarantee on all work following final acceptance.
