- Description
- Assunpink Creek flows through a 475 foot buried double-celled concrete culvert between South Broad Street and South Warren Street. The culvert consists of two barrels 22'wide by 9' high. The culvert consists of a concrete bottom and walls, a roof structure of 8" thick precast hollow-core concrete deck slabs, and a topping of reinforced concrete of undetermined thickness. The culvert is covered with 3' to 6' of soil. The work consists of removing the culvert except for the end segment near the Broad Street Bridge and constructing an open trapezoidal channel along an alignment that brings the creek away from the Capital Place One building and closer to Assunpink Drive. The new channel will be constructed with a bottom width of 30 feet with 2H: 1V side slopes that will transition to 3H: 1V on the right side and 2.5H: 1V on the left side with an 8' wide bench. The use of riprap and/or other bank stabilization methods will be necessary. Approximately 200 linear feet of post and panel (precast concrete) retaining wall (18' in height) and low concrete granite-faced wall (4.5' in height) will be constructed along the right bank in front of the Capital Place One (CPO) building. Access to the CPO building will be maintained at all times (including access off Warren Street) and may not be obstructed. Construction of the project will also require the temporary relocation of eight (8) medium and low temperature hot water and chilled water energy utility lines that lay across the top of the existing culvert. The project includes the temporary relocation of these lines across the culvert while a 40' segment of the culvert is upgraded with a new roof slab to support new permanent lines which are to be installed in the same location as the existing lines. This approach will keep the views of the historic Broad Street Bridge the same as currently exists and avoid any direct impacts to the historic bridge. Concrete wing walls will be constructed at the downstream end of the culvert remnant and also at the upstream face of the Warren Street Bridge. The work includes mobilization, structure monitoring, erosion and sediment controls, utility relocation, care and diversion of water, earthwork, clearing and grubbing, demolition, recycling and removal of concrete and soil, excavation, rock hammering, rock coring, stream restoration, riprap protection, installation of geotextile, foundation work and concrete construction, culvert roof slab framing and replacement, seeding, mulching, tree and riparian zone planting and restoration, ornamental fencing and landscaping. The solicitation will include the following Options: 1) Concrete Chip Samples, 2) Install Bollard and Chain Fencing and 3) Install Ornamental Fence and Gate. Bonding will be required; at the time of bid opening, by separate Bid Bonds; and after award but before Notice to Proceed, Performance and Payment Bonds will be required. The award will be made as a whole to one bidder in accordance FAR Part 14 Procedures Solicitation Number W912BU-15-B-0012 will be issued on or about 06 August 2015 with a bid opening date of 9 September 2015.
