Santa Monica Pier Bridge Replacement Project

The City of Santa Monica is advancing the replacement of the seismically deficient Santa Monica Pier Bridge with a new multi-modal structure designed to meet current safety and engineering standards, with construction activities focused at the intersection of Ocean Avenue and Colorado Avenue in Santa Monica, California, 90401. The project is governed by environmental compliance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), with key conditions established through the Environmental Impact Report and its Addendum No. 1, which revised noise mitigation requirements to account for technical feasibility, including the removal of the previously mandated 40 dB Standard Transmission Class barrier specification. Construction hours are strictly regulated: weekdays permit work from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with high-noise activities limited to 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Saturdays allowed from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and no work permitted on Sundays or city-recognized holidays. Contractors must implement comprehensive noise mitigation measures, including the use of acoustic barriers, blankets, equipment mufflers, and proper orientation to minimize noise exposure to nearby residential areas, while routing heavy trucks away from sensitive zones and ensuring equipment is powered off when idle. The City’s Public Works Department is the contracting agency, with environmental planning oversight managed by Rachel Kwok, Environmental Planner, and general correspondence directed to 1685 Main Street, Suite 113, Santa Monica, CA 90401. No contract value, pricing details, solicitation number, award evaluation factors, payment instructions, inspection protocols, or federal acquisition regulation clauses are present, as the materials reflect environmental review documentation rather than a formal procurement solicitation. The project remains in the planning and environmental approval phase, with no formal contract awarded or delivery schedule established beyond operational constraints, and no information provided regarding offeror certifications, socioeconomic status, or electronic submission requirements.
