2025 Bridge Painting Project

The City of Dothan awarded a $571,500 contract to Southern Coatings of Tarpon Springs for the repainting of a series of municipal bridges.

This contract exemplifies a typical public‑works painting project, requiring a licensed contractor with experience in bridge maintenance and traffic‑management coordination. • Base‑bid award: $571,500 to Southern Coatings (Alabama GC License # 57518). • Scope: Repaint multiple city bridges, including mobilization, surface prep, painting, and traffic‑control services. • Procurement: Open competition; award date July 1 2025; bid deadline June 3 2025.
