County engineer outlines C38 T77 railroad-crossing work, Midway seal-coat bids and CFYP submittal
Summary
Bremer County's engineer reported that plans for project C38 T77 are nearly final with railroad-crossing requirements under review, Midway seal-coat plans were sent for bid after Denver concurrence, and the CFYP was submitted to DOT for review before county approval.
The county engineer told supervisors that general plans for project C38 T77 are complete and staff are resolving railroad‑crossing requirements with the railroad; the engineer said the project should be finalized and put out to bid next week, and recommended opening bids publicly for transparency even though the work is classified as maintenance.
On Midway, the engineer said seal-coat plans have been sent out for bid and that county concurrence with Denver had been obtained. Supervisors discussed whether the treatment would be a fog seal or a two‑coat chip seal; staff said a full chip seal was planned to provide a more durable wear surface.
The county’s CFYP (county‑level funding/priority document) was sent to the Department of Transportation for review after changes to C33 projects were added; the engineer said DOT will return reviews and the board will consider the items for approval when that material is returned.
Supervisor discussion covered sources for chip material and past vendors; no formal votes on these projects occurred at the meeting beyond scheduling and procedural direction to proceed with bidding and review.
