Description
This opportunity involves a short‑duration, federally‑funded highway safety upgrade along a 3,700‑ft segment of Fairmont Drive in Eden Township, Alameda County, California. The work includes installing guardrail systems, clearing and grubbing the right‑of‑way, trimming trees to 14.5 ft, weed control, and addressing light‑pole procurement lead times. A tight construction schedule of 30 working days is imposed, with liquidated damages of $950 per day for overruns, and a separate three‑year plant‑establishment period. The contractor must also meet a 40 % DBE minimum for the general contractor portion and may seek to classify guardrail work as a “specialty” item to preserve DBE flexibility.
