Transit Shelters

The City of Murfreesboro is soliciting sealed bids for a project titled "Transit Shelters" under solicitation number ITB-28-2026, with proposals due electronically via the OpenGov portal by June 3, 2026, at 7:00 PM CST. This contract covers the complete scope of work required for the construction, installation, and commissioning of transit shelters, including all labor, materials, equipment, supervision, testing, and compliance with applicable codes and standards. The contractor is responsible for delivering the work at specified sites within Tennessee in accordance with contract documents, which include detailed drawings, specifications, general and supplementary conditions, bonds, insurance schedules, dispute resolution procedures, and special provisions for roadway construction. Inspections and acceptance occur on-site, with the contractor bearing primary responsibility for arranging and funding all tests and inspections required to meet the Owner’s standards and the Engineer’s approval. Contract administration will follow local procurement guidelines overseen by the City’s Transportation/Transit agency, with key contacts including the Assistant Director and Purchasing Director. The contract incorporates several locally defined Supplementary Conditions that modify standard clauses, particularly regarding change orders, laws and regulations, liens, progress schedules, and document delivery. Packaging and preservation requirements specify that materials like panels must be adequately protected and stored to prevent damage or corrosion during transport and delivery but do not impose military-standard packaging. While no specific contract value, contract type, or pricing data is disclosed, award determination is based on overall best interests of the project, considering bidder responsibility, qualifications, and suitability rather than lowest cost alone. Submission requires a full bid package including bid bonds and certifications, with all proposals submitted electronically through the designated procurement portal. Special contract requirements, including insurance coverage naming the Owner and Engineer, subcontractor approvals, off-site material handling, and compliance with industry standards such as ASTM and ADA, are governed primarily by the referenced Supplementary Conditions and contract documents.
