Site work for a road / highway in Agassiz, British Columbia. Completed plans call for site work for a road / highway.

The Fraser Valley Regional District ("FVRD") is requesting contractors with proven capacity, capabilities and experience to provide quotes for the construction of a new roadside trail alongside Hemlock Valley Road in the Hemlock Valley. Hemlock Valley is located in FVRD Electoral Area C, just outside Harrison Mills, BC. Proponents should have experience, have performed similar work for a similar organization, and must have trained experienced staff to undertake this work. The FVRD requires an experienced contractor to construct a roadside trail that weaves within the adjacent forest to connect the north portion of Snowmist Drive with Laurel Place (Schedule C). The trail will be situated primarily within a stand of second growth forest, with some sections of dense undergrowth. The purpose of this project is to enhance community connectivity within the Sasquatch Mountain Resort area by providing safer active transportation options for residents and visitors, while also increasing overall trail connectivity in the area. Trail Development Priorities: The trail development is broken into two priorities: " Priority 1 is building the connection from Snowmist Drive to Edelweiss Drive, as illustrated on Schedule C. " Priority 2 is connecting Edelweiss Drive to Laurel Place, which leads to the Village Loop trail, and/or connecting directly to the Village Loop trail. The FVRD is open to options for this priority that are economically feasible. Priority 2 will require the crossing of Sakwi Creek. The quote must provide separate pricing for each priority and identify and price the Sakwi Creek crossing as a distinct line item. The services required include the following: " Construction of an estimated 1.2 km long gravel trail o Trail specifications: _ Using machines, construct a 2.5 m wide subbase tread that is a safe, dry and acceptable trail for beginner skill level in walking, biking, and cross country skiing. _ Supply and install a 1.2km long, 2.5 m wide compacted gravel (crusher dust) trail surface.
