Budget estimate

$500,000 – $2,000,000

The budget for this contract is likely to be moderate, given the scope of work and the requirements for prevailing wages. A rough estimate for the total contract value could be between $500,000 and $2 million, considering the need for flagging services across multiple bridges and the potential for ongoing work over the contract period. Factors influencing the budget include the number of bridges requiring inspections, the frequency of inspections, and the prevailing wage rates.
