- Description
- Phase II, Proposals from all business concerns will be accepted for the Design-Build (D-B) of the Foothills Parkway, FOOT 8E17, Solicitation Number: DTFH71-09-R-00007, located in Blount County, Tennessee, northeast of the city of Townsend. The proposed project is to design and construct a 2 lane bridge plus approaches along the Foothills Parkway. The structure, as conceived, consists of 2 abutments and 4 piers and is approximately 790 feet long. The roadway approaches are up to 200 feet long and may include both cut and fill retaining walls. The terrain is mountainous and extremely difficult to access with any vehicles. The only access to the site is from the entrance to the Parkway at the intersection of U.S. Route 321 in Wear Valley, Tennessee. The proposed project limits are within existing National Park Service right-of-way. The design and construction cost for this project is estimated to be over $20,000,000. This project will be funded through the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009. In accordance with Public Law 104-106 (41 U.S.C. 253m), the Eastern Federal Lands Highway Division (EFLHD) of the Federal Highway Administration is conducting a “two phased” Design-Build (D-B) selection process for the National Park Service. Solicitation documents for Phase One, Request for Qualifications (RFQ), should be issued on or about July 14, 2009. Proposals will be due on or about August 28, 2009 at the EFLHD office in Sterling, Virginia. A selection committee will review and evaluate contractor qualifications and select the most highly qualified D-B firms/teams based on the established RFQ evaluation criteria to participate in Phase Two of this D-B selection process. During Phase Two, those firms/teams short-listed will be sent a Request for Proposal (RFP), which will outline the remainder of the process requirements. Please send all questions concerning construction projects to eflhd.contracts@fhwa.dot.gov. Include the solicitation number, project name and number, requesting firm and address, a point of contact and telephone number. Requests for 'faxing' or overnight mailing will not be accepted.
