The project, which is located in Puerto Rico, consists of construction of approximately 244 meters long paved channel in order to protect the foundations of the impacted bridges from scour associated with reestablishing flow through the Ca?o Martin Pe?a (to be completed as part of a later contract). The channel bottom and side slopes are to be constructed of riprap. The transition to the wall-stabilized channel to the east (to be constructed as part of a later contract) requires construction of a wall tie-back into the rip rap slope. Scour cutoff walls are required at the eastern and western ends of this project in order to prevent sedimentation of the paved channel. Prior to placement of the hardened structures, the channel will be excavated to remove sediment and debris. This work also includes, but is not limited to, clearing and grubbing, temporary construction crossings, material disposal areas, temporary traffic controls, demolition of abandoned structures, surface and ground water control, and all incidental related work. All work impacting public roads, and restricting public traffic is to comply with PRHTA Standard Specifications. Las Piedritas Site can be used as a staging area to place temporarily the excavated material. **************************************************************************************************BIDS ARE DUE ON 17 JULY 2024 @ 1:00 PM, EDT AND BID OPENING WILL BE HELD AT 2:00 PM, EDT.
