Replace 4,000 ties on WVCR and gage installed tie

The West Virginia Purchasing Division is soliciting bids for the replacement of 4,000 crossties and gage installed ties on the West Virginia Central Railroad (WVCR). The vendor will be responsible for furnishing all materials, labor, and equipment necessary to complete the construction services. The project involves replacing ties between two sections of the railroad, MP12.0-MP17.0 and MP 28.0-MP 33.0, and installing new spikes and rail anchors. The vendor must meet the mandatory requirements listed in the project plans, including using new 7" x 9" x 8'6" Grade 5 ties and 6" cut track spikes. Some key points to consider: • The vendor must have experience with similar projects, with a minimum of five successfully completed projects. • The vendor must provide all necessary materials and labor. • The vendor must meet the AREMA specifications for materials and workmanship. • The project requires coordination with the Durbin and Greenbrier Valley Railroad (operator of the WVCR) for material delivery and work schedule. • The vendor must participate in a final inspection with the Agency's project manager to identify deficiencies and ensure compliance with contract requirements.
