County solicits bids for pavement condition evaluation; lowest bidder can deliver draft in 45 days
Summary
Floyd County solicited quotes to update the pavement surface evaluation rating (PASER) and received three bids. County staff said Beacon Street (lowest bid) can produce a draft report within 45 days; commissioners took the bids under advisement.
Floyd County solicited quotes to update its pavement surface evaluation rating, a periodic countywide condition survey used for road maintenance planning, and received three quotes, county staff said at the meeting.
The county’s presentation said staff requested quotes from qualified firms because the county has not completed the PASER update in-house. Staff provided the three submitted quotes to commissioners and reported that Beacon Street had the lowest price and could deliver a draft report within 45 days of notice to proceed. Commissioners took the bids under advisement for final review.
Staff said the PASER update groups similar road segments and evaluates pavement condition to guide county maintenance priorities; the work will produce a condition report and a recommended priority list for maintenance and resurfacing. Beacon Street’s stated turnaround time would meet the department’s scheduling needs, and staff will follow up with contracting steps if the county proceeds. The board did not award a contract at the meeting; commissioners voted to take the bids under advisement.
