As of October 19, 2021, a design engineer has been awarded. *The previous solicitation is listed below for reference Bridge Repairs and Resurfacing, Milepost 92 to 122 and the Newark Bay-Hudson County Extension, consists of work on the New Jersey Turnpike (TPK), which involves implementation of lane shifts or traffic detours; selective replacement of complete deck panels bounded by stringers and diaphragms; partial depth concrete spall repairs; joint header, abutment headblock and joint riser bar replacement or repairs; armor joint modifications; joint seal installation or replacement; safety walk and curb surface repairs with provisions for temporary electrical lighting service; replacement of bridge railing; isolated parapet replacement including new electrical conduits and service; removal and replacement of existing asphalt wearing surface with a new membrane/asphalt system or with a high density, impermeable, cementitious overlay; high performance concrete in deck and parapaet, structural steel repairs; substructure repairs; laminated elastomeric bearings; emergency and routine repairs under cost plus compensation; and other incidental work. Work will require installation of concrete construction barrier and other incidental work on the TPK between Milepost 92 and 122 and the Newark Bay-Hudson County Extension in Middlesex, Union, Essex, Hudson, and Bergen Counties. In order to accomplish the above items, lanes are being closed with traffic cones and repair work consisting of the above outlined items is being carried out within the coned off closings. Deck replacements are being performed within Type 4 concrete construction barrier enclosures. The majority of the deck replacements, because of their location encroaching on the adjacent lane or straddling two lanes, and due to the use of the concrete construction barrier, frequently require utilization of the shoulders, as a traffic lane and shifting of traffic by means of obliteration of the existing line striping and use of temporary line striping. Placement and removal of the temporary line striping and of the concrete construction barrier, in general, necessitates the closing of supplementary or "buffer" lanes which are only permissible during certain off peak traffic times, late at night. The above work operations on the Turnpikes mainline are carried out in condensed, weekend or part weekly construction stages with single or multi-lane closings. Due to the around the clock work, minimum two shift staffing is required for the field supervision. Maximum staffing is needed over weekends when the Contractor handles the largest work volumes. The anticipated contract duration is 10 months and the estimated construction cost is $12 million.
