South Fontana ADA Ramps Project (Phase II)

The South Fontana ADA Ramps Project (Phase II) is a public works construction initiative led by the San Bernardino County Department of Public Works, aimed at enhancing accessibility and infrastructure compliance across multiple locations in the region. The project encompasses the installation of new and updated ADA-compliant ramps, curb and gutter systems, spandrels, and cross gutters, alongside full-area asphalt concrete removal and repaving. Additional scope includes traffic control system installation, roadside sign work, pavement markings, and other appurtenant construction activities, all governed by Caltrans 2025 Standard Specifications, Standard Plans, and the California MUTCD 2014. Work must adhere strictly to prevailing wage requirements under the Davis-Bacon Act and California Labor Code, with strict apprenticeship ratios requiring one apprentice for every five journeyman hours, and certified payroll records must be submitted through approved systems like LCP Tracker. All work is subject to on-site inspection and acceptance by the County, with quality standards tied to Caltrans sections 17, 22, 39, 40, 73, and 81–84, as well as material specifications for signage and delineation from approved lists. Contract compliance is enforced through a suite of state and federal mandates, including Equal Opportunity Clauses, Buy America provisions, and DBE/WBE/ESBE participation incentives. Contractors must submit proposals including 21 numbered forms (P-1 through P-21), subcontractor listings, and non-collusion declarations, signed by authorized representatives, through either hard copy delivery or the county’s ePro portal by September 3, 2026, with bid bonds submitted in person. While the contract references federal-aid highway funding and compliance with HUD and CDBG requirements, no specific contract value, CLIN structure, or pricing breakdown is provided. Financial administration requires Electronic Funds Transfer for payments, with apprenticeship contributions remitted to the California Apprenticeship Council, though no designated payment office, accounting codes, COR/COTR details, or invoicing platforms are named. All work occurs within the right-of-way of projects in San Bernardino County, specifically targeting Fontana, and must meet environmental compliance standards including ASTM Phase I ESAs and 24 CFR §§58.5 and 50.3(i). No unique or special contract requirements beyond standard state and federal public works obligations were identified.
