Council approves Timber Wolf Excavating for Frederick Road utility relocation ahead of road widening
Summary
The council awarded the Frederick Road utility relocation construction contract to the low bidder (Timber Wolf Excavating) to move electric, water and sewer utilities in preparation for a future road widening; staff said work should take about a year and will require traffic‑control measures.
Council members approved a construction contract to relocate utilities along Frederick Road so the corridor can be widened in a later phase.
Staff said the project will relocate electric, water and sewer facilities (much of the work will be undergrounded) and presented four bids; the low bidder was Timber Wolf Excavating. Staff reported they had checked references with nearby jurisdictions and recommended awarding the contract to Timber Wolf.
Presenters warned the project will require temporary traffic control, lane closures and close coordination with property owners and the contractor. Staff recommended, and the council approved, authorizing the award so construction can proceed with an expected completion timeline of about one year. The project is intended to improve safety and capacity along the corridor once the road portion is completed in a later phase.
What happens next: staff will finalize contract documents with Timber Wolf Excavating, implement traffic control plans during construction and coordinate schedules and notifications with affected property owners and businesses.
