Chemung County is soliciting sealed bid proposals under solicitation number 2140436 (RFB-2923) for the replacement of the existing bridge on County Road 54 (Jackson Hollow Road) over Jackson Creek.

The new bridge must meet NYSDOT safety standards and is designed for a service life of at least 75 years with routine maintenance. Key project objectives include improving traffic safety on CR54, widening the hydraulic opening, and rebuilding failed bank protection on the north bank to reduce vulnerability during high flow periods.

Electronic or facsimile submissions are prohibited. Each bid must include a security deposit of five percent of the total base bid via certified check, bank draft, or bid bond. The contract term remains in effect until the project is completed. This project has a 0% DBE participation requirement.
