Project Description
The Broadway/Division/Detroit Street Planter Wall and Sidewalk Repair Project is a minor project that was necessary due to an accident that occurred on September 22, 2015 when a motorist lost control of their car and struck the southeast corner of the planter wall island that separates North Division/Broadway at the west end of the Broadway Bridge over Depot Street and the Norfolk Southern Railroad tracks and badly damaged it. In order to repair the wall, it is necessary to remove and replace about 14.5 lineal feet of the cast-in-place concrete retaining wall, an adjoining portion of the concrete slope paving, the sidewalk and ramps next to the wall, and restore the area to its pre-construction condition.
The Project Management Services Unit had plans and contract documents prepared for this work and bid the project through the City's Procurement Unit following our standard procedures. On April 20, 2016, three bids were received for this work. Lacaria Concrete Construction, Inc. of Detroit Michigan was the lowest responsible bidder with a bid amount of $55,078.00. A tabulation of the bids received is as follows:
