Town of Middlesex - Daniels Farm Rd Culvert Replacement

The Town of Middlesex is seeking bids for a stream crossing replacement on Daniels Farm Road in Vermont, following damage caused by the 2024 flood. The project involves removing a failed timber bridge and its associated stone and concrete abutments and installing a 12 by 8 pre-cast concrete box culvert with headwalls and wing walls. While the Town provides the culvert structure, the contractor is responsible for providing a crane for installation, as well as managing bank stabilization, minor channel grading, stream bypass, water control, and the installation of guardrails and erosion control measures. A temporary foot bridge must also be installed as needed for landowner access. This is a FEMA-funded, not-to-exceed lump sum reimbursement contract with a construction start date of October 12, 2026, and a required completion date of October 31, 2026. Bids are due by October 7, 2026, and must include a detailed cost breakdown, confirmation of the schedule and scope, and up to three similar project examples with client references. Payment will be issued upon the conclusion of work and final acceptance by the Town and the Engineer. Contractors must comply with Vermont State Insurance Specifications, including workers compensation, and are encouraged to submit proposals if they are Disadvantaged Business Enterprises.
