Reconfigure Taxiway A & Rehabilitate Connecting Taxiway At Apron 1 & 2

This project involves significant airport infrastructure improvements at Oneida County, specifically focusing on the removal and realignment of Runway 33's holding bay, the reconfiguration of Taxiway A, and the rehabilitation of Taxiway L connecting Aprons 1 and 2. The scope includes removing existing concrete pavement and asphalt shoulders outside the new Taxiway A layout, which will feature a run-up apron area. The new Taxiway A will utilize the existing concrete pavement, which will be re-marked with new pavement markings, signage, and edge lighting. The project also encompasses grading of the turf areas to ensure proper drainage and compliance with FAA standards. Taxiway L will be maintained at 75 feet wide with existing shoulders, extending 1,300 feet, while the new run-up apron will cover approximately 63,400 square feet. The entire project spans roughly 12.5 acres, with 3.7 acres designated for permanent pavement removal. The contract, managed by the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Oneida County, is scheduled for completion within 50 calendar days, with a bid response deadline of March 26, 2024. The project does not set aside a service-disabled veteran-owned business participation but aims for a 7.7% disadvantaged-owned subcontracting goal. Interested contractors are encouraged to attend a pre-bid meeting on March 12, 2024. Rifenburg Construction, a company with prior experience on similar contracts, is among the eligible entities. The project is located at 660 Hangar Road, Suite 223, Rome, NY, and is under the NAICS code 339950, relating to construction services.
