Description
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is issuing a single public let (L260519) for twelve highway‑construction contracts across the state. The contracts cover a mix of grading, drainage, paving, milling, resurfacing, bridge work, utility adjustments, and traffic‑control installations. All contracts will be opened together on May 19 2026, with individual completion dates ranging from early 2027 through 2033. Bidders must be pre‑qualified, register as interested parties, and provide a 5 % bid bond or deposit. Federal‑aid projects do not require a contractor’s license; state‑funded projects do for contracts ≥ $30,000. Technical training sessions are offered throughout 2026 to assist prospective bidders.
• Twelve separate contracts (IDs C205153‑C205159, C204733‑C204773, etc.) totaling roughly 100 + miles of roadway work, including bridge structures and extensive utility coordination.
• Scope includes earthwork, asphalt milling and resurfacing, bridge superstructure installation, signal and utility upgrades, and extensive traffic‑control provisions.
