Contract Award/Notice to Proceed is subject to availability of funds. The project consists of the reconstruction of approximately 7.5 miles of the northern section of the George Washington Memorial Parkway (GWMP) between Spout Run and the I-495/Capital Beltway, the reconfiguration of the existing roadway geometry at the Route 123 interchange to improve safety, and the rehabilitation of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) interchange in Fairfax and Arlington counties, Virginia. The GWMP from Spout Run to I-495 is a four-lane divided scenic parkway that also serves as a major commuter route between northern Virginia and Washington, D.C., carrying over 70,000 vehicles per day. The GWMP also provides access to several NPS recreational and historic sites along the Parkway. The work includes reconstructing asphalt pavement; constructing new concrete curbs; constructing new or extended acceleration and deceleration lanes; repairing or replacing existing drainage inlets and culverts, and constructing additional drainage inlets and culverts; repairing and stabilizing drainage outfalls; installing stormwater management facilities; replacing stone guardwalls, steel guardrail, and concrete bridge median barriers with either concrete-core guardwall with stone-facing, or steel-backed timber guardrail; providing safety features to protect motorists while preserving viewsheds and historic walls; rehabilitating deteriorated bridge joints and concrete sections, and painting bridge girders and railings; constructing utility improvements, including installation of conduit, manholes, pull boxes, and related infrastructure for future fiber-optic intelligent transportation system lines, power lines, and traffic signal systems; signing; pavement markings; temporary traffic control; and other miscellaneous work. The project will be split into multiple work schedules/contract options. The design and construction cost for all the work schedules is estimated to be more than $100,000,000.00 The Eastern Federal Lands Highway Division (EFLHD), of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), in cooperation with the National Park Service (NPS) is conducting a “two phased” Design-Build (D-B) selection process.
