The deadline to advise the C&D Contracting Officer that Proposers intend to submit a Proposal to this RFP: 2:00PM on March 22, 2021. C&D requires the services of a design/build contractor to provide design, engineering and construction services for this Project. The Contractor shall utilize the provided Technical Design Documents (which includes the 30% Design Drawings) to prepare the 60%, 90%, and 100% Final Design packages in accordance with the requirements in this RFP. The bridge carries LIRR's Hempstead Branch, which is double track electrified (third rail) territory at this location. The bridge is located at Mile Post 18.2 between the Nassau Boulevard and Garden City stations and was built in 1871. It has one (1) span with a total bridge length of approximately 86 feet. The bridge is open deck with standard bridge timbers and rests on stone masonry abutments. The tracks are tangent across the bridge with timetable speed of 60 mph (FRA Class 3). When the bridge was constructed in 1871, the vehicular traffic below was significantly different than what it is today. With the current vertical clearance posted at 10'-4" (surveyed at minimum 11'-6") bridge strikes by vehicles have been a common occurrence at this location. The age of the bridge and the frequency of bridge strikes have made replacement a priority. The Cherry Valley Road Bridge shall meet all applicable NYSDOT vertical clearance requirements to the street below (14'-0). Goals: 20% DBE Contract Term: 720 Days after Notice of Award to Substantial Completion *This project timeline has been extended due to the public health crisis.
