The estimated contract value is between 12 million and 15.4 million dollars. The project must adhere to specific VDOT geometric design standards, utilizing GS-5 for Route 29 with a minimum speed of 60 mph and GS-8 for the Route 670 Connector with a minimum speed of 35 mph. The contract will be awarded to the responsive offeror who submits the lowest price proposal within the county's budget. Proposals were due by February 9, 2027, via the eVA portal, with contract execution scheduled for March 17, 2027. The selected Design-Builder is required to provide performance and payment bonds totaling 100 percent of the contract price and maintain comprehensive insurance. Key requirements include the submission of DPOR license information for professional personnel, adherence to federal-aid EEO documentation, and the execution of a Reference Documents Agreement. Quality assurance is managed through a combination of the Design-Builder's on-site QA firm and initial acceptance inspections performed by Greene County.
