Pavement Smoothness Testing and Data Collection

The contract requires the conduct of pre-PS&E pavement smoothness testing on a one-mile segment of WV Route 55, specifically in Hardy, using a High Speed Inertial Profiler to collect International Roughness Index measurements at 0.1-mile intervals in both travel directions. This data collection is critical for assessing pavement condition prior to the design phase of future improvements, ensuring accurate and standardized performance metrics are available for engineering decisions. The work must be completed with high precision to meet technical standards for longitudinal roughness evaluation. The contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 541380, associated with the West Virginia Department of Transportation, and was posted on May 19, 2026, with the same date as the response deadline, indicating an immediate or closed solicitation timeframe. The place of performance is limited to the designated segment of Route 55 in Hardy, and no specific set-aside provisions or point of contact details are provided. The contractual scope is narrowly defined to data acquisition only, with no mention of analysis, reporting, or additional services beyond the collection of IRI values at specified intervals.
