D/B - I-81 Cip Mm 72.0 Nb to Mm 73.4 Nb Accel/Decel Lanes With Bridges

Project: I-81 CIP MM 72.0 NB to MM 73.4 NB Accel/Decel Lanes with Bridges State Project No.: 0081-139-065 Federal Project No.: NHPP-008-1(415) The project is located in Wythe County on I-81 at the junction of I-77, between I-81 NB mile markers 72.0 and 73.4. The project is UPC 122267 (UPC 122267 combines past UPCs of 116163 and 116175). Proposed improvements include lengthening the acceleration lane at the merge area from the I-77 SB off-ramp to I-81 southbound and lengthening the deceleration lane from the I-81 northbound on-ramp to I-77 NB. Proposed improvements also include complete replacement of the existing bridges over Peppers Ferry Road (Bridge #1392800 & 1392801) and replacement of the I-81 northbound bridge (Bridge #1392804) over the I-77 NB trumpet ramp. Other roadway improvements include extending the I-77 Exit 41 SB acceleration lane to create an auxiliary lane that lengthens the merge area between the Exit 41 SB on-ramp and the off-ramp to I-81 SB. Replacement of the I-81 southbound bridge over I-77 is not part of the project. The project does not increase the capacity of I-81 and will provide two lanes of travel in both I-81 directions. Provide a written statement within the Letter of Submittal that Offeror is committed to achieving a one percent (1%) DBE participation goal for the entire value of the contract A single 100%performance bond and a single 100% payment bond shall be provided regardless of any co-surety relationship.
