Town of Peru Road Construction Projects

The Town of Peru, through the Berkshire Regional Planning Commission, is soliciting bids for two separate road construction projects involving full-depth reclamation and paving on South Rd and Hickingbotham Rd in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. The South Rd project encompasses approximately one mile from Middlefield Rd to a major intersection with South Rd Ext, while the Hickingbotham Rd project covers roughly half a mile from the Peru/Hinsdale town line at Smith Rd. Both projects require contractors to hold active MassDOT prequalification in both Pavement – Reclamation and Pavement – Surfacing classifications, with estimated values of $81,352 and $484,935 respectively, though the overall contract value is not specified and awards will be issued separately. All work must comply with Massachusetts prevailing wage laws under Chapter 149, Sections 26 to 27F, and Chapter 30, Section 39M, and contractors must be approved by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. Bids must be submitted electronically via the OpenGov procurement portal by 11:00 AM on Friday, July 17, 2026, with a mandatory 5% bid deposit required in the form of a bid bond or certified check. Proposals will be publicly opened via Zoom, and the Town of Peru reserves the right to accept or reject any bids in whole or in part, or to waive procedural irregularities in the interest of the public. The Town operates as an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer, and the place of performance is designated as Pittsfield, MA, 01201. No details are provided regarding delivery schedules, contract administration, inspection protocols, or packaging requirements, and all supplemental bid package information must be obtained directly from the OpenGov portal.
