Executive Summary:
The Council is asked to approve award of and authorize the execution of a contract for Sykes Pond Road Bridge Replacement. The lowest responsive, responsible bidder, Smith Rowe, LLC Mount Airy, NC, is recommended.
Background:
A storm event on September 29, 2016 washed away a culvert and the road embankment on Sykes Pond Road at Little Rockfish Creek. The extensive damage caused the City to conduct an engineering evaluation on the most appropriate repair. After a hydrologic and hydraulic analysis was conducted, it was determined the most cost effective alternative would be to place a bridge at this location.
This contract will consist of bridge construction, water main construction, roadway reconstruction, storm drainage, and erosion control. The bridge will consist of a single span box beam bridge for the crossing over Little Rockfish Creek including roadway approach work. The project will also include an aerial waterline crossing.
The project was advertised for bids to be opened on December 03, 2019.
