Sealed Bids were opened on June 13, 2018 at I Oam. Six (6) bids were received for the prescribed work. The lowest responsive bid was from Belsaas & Smith in the amount of $1,767,038.00, which is under the Engineer's Estimate. This contract provides for the necessary replacement of bridge #76131 on Manastash Road over the South Fork of Manastash Creek. The existing bridge exhibits significant deterioration in both the superstructure and the foundation. Spalling, cracked, and delaminated girders with large areas of exposed, corroded reinforcing steel have required this structure to be restricted to a load limit for a single vehicle not to exceed 22 tons gross weight. Scour also threatens the foundation on the existing bridge. The new bridge will be able to accommodate full legal loads, and will have an increased span length that will provide adequate hydraulic opening and will meet fish passage requirements. The Department of Public works has secured federal funds from the 2017 Local Bridge Program (formerly known as BRAC) as well as state funds from the Rural Arterial Program for this project.
