Suffolk Drive Drainage Improvements

Greenville County has issued Invitation for Bid #27023 for drainage improvements on Suffolk Drive within the Richmond Hills subdivision of Greenville, South Carolina. The project involves the demolition of existing infrastructure, including trees, fences, and pavement, to install new storm drainage lines and catch basins. Specific deliverables include the installation of various diameters of high-performance polyethylene (HPP) and aluminum arch pipes, as well as T9 yard inlets. The scope further requires the restoration of asphalt roadways and driveways, the installation of wood privacy and chain link fences, and the application of landscaping, seeding, and erosion control measures. All work must adhere to Greenville County and SCDOT Standard Specifications for Highway Construction, with County specifications taking precedence in the event of a conflict. Bids are due by October 21, 2026, and will be evaluated primarily on pricing, which accounts for 99% of the total score, though the county will also consider the contractor's reputation, experience, and past performance. The successful bidder must provide a bid bond of 5% of the bid price and subsequently furnish performance and payment bonds for the total bid amount. The project carries a 90-day completion requirement, with liquidated damages set at 150 dollars per day for delays. Contractors are required to provide at least three references for similar work and must comply with ADA Title II guidelines, EEO standards, and the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970.
