Typically, the Engineering Department would complete the design of this project and put it out to be competitively bid. Similar to last year’s Broadway Mill and Fill project, Northeast Paving has approached the City of Bangor with a proposal to complete the overlay on Stillwater Avenue for the same unit prices that they charged the City for the Broadway and Union Street 50-50 projects completed in 2020 and 2019. Due to the current construction environment, staff believes bid pricing is likely to escalate in the near term. For example MaineDOT recently opened bids for work on Stillwater Avenue in Old Town and the bid pricing for pavement for 12.5 MM with polymer was $185/ton (typically pavement with polymer is $10-$20/ton higher that standard 12.5 HMA). Staff believes that Northeast Paving’s proposal to maintain paving pricing from last year provides a significant opportunity for cost savings in completing these projects. There will be remaining work associated with the project, which will be put out to bid to local contractors or completed under current City contracts.
