Underground Conduit Installation (HDPE Ducts)

The contract involves the installation of two 1.5-inch high-density polyethylene (HDPE) conduits along highway rights-of-way within Caltrans District 2, with a minimum depth of cover set at 48 inches to ensure protection and compliance with utility standards. The work is scoped to occur in the Alturas area and is classified under NAICS code 238990, indicating it falls under other heavy and civil engineering construction activities. As a subcontract, this effort supports broader infrastructure projects managed by the California Department of Transportation and requires adherence to state construction specifications and safety protocols. The project was posted on May 28, 2026, and is part of ongoing efforts to expand underground utility infrastructure in support of telecommunications, data transmission, or other buried service lines. While no specific solicitation number or point of contact is provided, the contract’s location and technical requirements suggest it is intended for experienced contractors familiar with HDPE conduit placement, trenching, and backfilling in regulated highway corridors. Completion must align with Caltrans standards for durability, depth, and environmental impact mitigation in the designated region.
