STATE LET CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT, JOHNSON CO, WIDEN ROAD - ADD LANES

The Texas Department of Transportation is soliciting bids for a highway widening project on SH 174 in Johnson County, Texas, with an estimated contract value of $20,126,293.07. The project involves adding lanes to improve traffic capacity along the corridor from north of Elk Drive to south of Hulen Street, and the work is expected to be completed within 510 working days. Solicitations are being managed through the Electronic State Business Daily and the Electronic Bidding System, with proposals due by 1:00 PM on June 2, 2026, and submissions required to be made electronically through these platforms. The project is classified under NAICS code 237310 for highway and street construction and is funded under TxDOT’s project number CM 2026(406) with agency code 601. A performance guarantee of $100,000.00 is required, and while the contract type is not explicitly stated, state construction contracts of this nature typically follow a fixed-price structure. The place of performance is solely within Johnson County, Texas, and all inspections and acceptance will occur at the project site. No detailed clause packages or federal acquisition regulation provisions are included in the solicitation materials, as this is a state-level project governed by TxDOT standards and specifications, which are presumed to be referenced in the official project proposal. The solicitation does not specify a basis of award, evaluation factors, or weighting criteria, nor does it list any socioeconomic set-asides, with a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise goal of 0.0%. No packaging, marking, or FOB terms are addressed, consistent with the nature of a roadway construction project rather than a procurement of goods. The only designated point of contact for bid inquiries is Alfred Luera in Euless, Texas, and all submissions must be mailed to TxDOT’s Austin headquarters or uploaded via the designated electronic bidding systems. Any addenda, attachments, or detailed technical specifications are not provided in the public-facing solicitation and must be obtained directly from the ESBD or Electronic Bidding System to ensure compliance with current requirements.
