Westminster Pier Park Wall Rehabilitation

The City of New Westminster is soliciting bids for the Westminster Pier Park Retaining Wall Rehabilitation project, identified as solicitation NWIT-26-07. The scope of work involves the rehabilitation of an existing Deltalok retaining wall through the installation of soil nails, new concrete fascia, and drainage systems. Key deliverables include site preparation, utility locates, the removal of surface vegetation, the installation of drain mats and shotcrete fascia, and site restoration. The project requires strict adherence to geotechnical and bridge design standards, with a minimum design life of 75 years for all major components. The anticipated Notice to Proceed is mid-October 2026, with a maximum duration of 180 days for substantial performance. Qualified bidders must provide proof of completing three permanent shotcrete and soil nail or anchor wall projects of similar scope and magnitude within the last five years. Mandatory requirements include a digitally certified bid bond of 10 percent of the tender price, and upon award, performance and payment bonds each totaling 50 percent of the contract price. The selected contractor will be designated as the Prime Contractor, assuming all responsibilities under the Workers Compensation Act and OH&S Regulation. Evaluation is primarily based on the tender price, though the City may consider the proven experience of the tenderer and their subcontractors. Submissions must be made electronically via the Bids and Tenders system by the final closing date of September 23, 2026.
