Site work for a road / highway in Dayton, Texas. Completed plans call for site work for a road / highway.
As of July 24, 2025, project has been awarded to Cox Boring for a total of $392,353.13. The City of Dayton, Texas is accepting proposals from qualified and experienced telecommunications Outside Plant (OSP) construction contractors to provide all labor, materials, equipment, tools, permitting, testing, and documentation necessary for the construction of a new underground fiber optic cable pathway and the installation of fiber optic cable. The project route originates at the DayNet hub facility located at 2004 1/2 N. Cleveland St., Dayton, TX 77535, proceeds down Waco St. to FM 1960, then follows FM 1960 SE to County Road 609. If you have any questions, please contact the Director of I.T. and Fiber Broadband Services, James Perkins, at (936)258-2642 Ext.1007, or via email at daynet_rfp@mydaynet.com. The City of Dayton reserves the right to refuse any and all proposals and to waive any technicalities or formalities. . Project Scope of Work The selected Contractor shall be responsible for, but not limited to, the following tasks: ? 2.1. Route Verification and Design Input: ? Walk/verify the proposed route. ? Identify potential conflicts, obstacles, or necessary deviations. ? Provide input on constructability and suggest optimal placement within public rights-of-way (ROW) or designated easements. (Note: Final design approval rests with the Organization, potentially in consultation with an engineering firm if one is involved). ? 2.2. Permitting: ? Identify, apply for, secure, and pay for all necessary permits and approvals required for construction within the specified route. This includes, but is not limited to, permits from: ¦ City of Dayton ¦ Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) for work along/crossing FM 1960 ROW ¦ Liberty County (for work along/crossing CR 609 ROW) ¦ Any relevant utility or railroad crossing permits. ? Contractor is responsible for adhering to all permit conditions. The Organization will provide reasonable assistance, such as letters of agency if required. ? 2.3. Utility Locating: ? Coordinate and ensure compliance with Texas 811 requirements for underground utility locating prior to and during construction. ? Contractor is responsible for positively identifying and protecting all existing utilities (potholing may be required). ? 2.4. Pathway Construction: ? Furnish and install approximately 25,000 linear feet of continuous underground conduit pathway. ? Conduit: Install two (2) HDPE conduits, 2.0-inches, SDR 11. Conduit color shall be Orange. Included tracer wire will be 12 AWG copper clad steel within the conduit path or directly buried above it. Conduits can also include inner ducts if it is determined that it would be beneficial for future growth. ? Installation Method: Primarily directional boring is preferred to minimize surface disruption. Minimum depth will be 36 inches minimum or deeper as needed. When crossing roads the boring depth should be no less than 48” and 60” across except where permit authority requires otherwise or directed in writing. ¦ Known exceptions include: ? 20 feet below the bottom of a channel crossing controlled by the Coastal Water Authority of Texas. ? 5 feet below drainage ditches/bayous or as directed by the permitting authority. ? Contractor shall be aware of crossing pipelines on this project may require special materials, depths, and construction practices. Such materials, depths, and practices shall meet the Pipeline Company's satisfaction. Contractor shall fully coordinate such efforts with the Pipeline Company's approval prior to construction. Such efforts shall be to the satisfaction of the pipeline company, at no additional cost to the project. ? Handholes/Vaults: Furnish and install polymer concrete handholes (Tier 22) at appropriate intervals (e.g., approximately every 500 - 700 feet), at splice locations, and at direction changes, as specified or approved by the Organization. Handholes/vaults will be 24x36x36 and 30x48x36 based on specified application and use. ? Bore Pits: Minimize the size and impact of entry/exit pits. Restore pits promptly upon completion of boring operations. ? 2.5. Fiber Optic Cable Installation: ? Furnish and install approximately 25,000 linear feet of new fiber optic cable. ? Cable Type: 288-count, Single-Mode Fiber (SMF), compliant with ITU-T G.652.D standards. ? Installation Method: Install cable via blowing/jetting or traditional pulling methods, ensuring adherence to the manufacturer's tension and bend radius specifications. Lubricant shall be manufacturer-approved for the cable jacket and conduit type. ? Slack Loops: Provide sufficient slack of at least 50 feet in designated handholes for splicing and future maintenance, as directed by the Organization. ? 2.6. Splicing: ? Perform fusion splicing at required locations. ? Utilize appropriate splice enclosures within designated handholes. ? Maximum acceptable splice loss: 0.10 DB per splice. ? 2.7. Testing: ? Perform end-to-end testing on all installed fiber strands upon completion. ? Required tests include: ¦ Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) testing from both directions at 1310nm and 1550nm. ¦ Insertion Loss (Power Meter) testing end-to-end at 1310nm and 1550nm. ? Submit comprehensive test results in standard electronic formats (e.g., SOR files for OTDR, PDF/Excel for summaries), including calculated loss budgets vs. actual measurements. ? 2.8. Restoration: ? Restore all disturbed surfaces (e.g., soil, grass, pavement, concrete) to a condition equal to or better than the original condition, in compliance with all permit requirements (City, TxDOT, County). This includes landscape restoration, sidewalk/driveway repairs, and asphalt patching as needed. ? Remove all construction debris and maintain a clean work site daily. ? 2.9. Documentation: ? Provide detailed As-Built drawings upon project completion. Drawings shall include: ¦ Accurate GPS coordinates or surveyed locations of the route, conduit, handholes, and splice points. ¦ Depth of conduit at regular intervals and critical crossings. ¦ Offset measurements from permanent landmarks or property lines. ¦ Fiber assignments and splice documentation (splice matrix). ? Formats required: ESRI Shapefile/Geodatabase, NAD 1983 (2011) State Plane Texas Central FIPS 4203 (US Feet), include x, y, and z tolerance, PDF ? Submit all test results, permit copies, material certifications, and warranty information. ? 2.10. Project Management & Safety: ? Provide a dedicated Project Manager as the single point of contact. ? Develop and submit a detailed Project Schedule. ? Conduct regular progress meetings weekly with the Organization. ? Develop and adhere to a comprehensive Site-Specific Safety Plan, complying with all OSHA and local safety regulations. Provide a plan with a proposal. ?
