Bids were opened Monday night for proposed surface treatment projects and street and sidewalk projects in Plymouth this spring.
Plymouth City Engineer Rick Gaul explained that one bid was received for the surface treatment projects. Gaul said he contacted six microsurface companies to submit bids for the projects, but only one bid was received. Pavement Solutions, Inc. bid $240,788.98. Gaul asked the Plymouth Board of Public Works and Safety members to take the bid under consideration to ensure it meets all requirements.
Five companies bid for the street and sidewalk projects this spring. The lowest bid came from Walsh and Kelly, Inc. out of South Bend at $157,829.40. Gaul asked to take the bids under advisement, but award the bid as soon as possible to the lowest bidder who meets all requirements. He explained that it would give the winning bidder two extra weeks to get everything ready to submit to INDOT for the Community Crossings grant projects. The deadline to submit paperwork for Community Crossing grant projects is April 15.
