Engineers recommend accepting Ebert Construction bid for North McFarland Road bridge; start pushed to March 2027
Summary
Engineers reviewed bids and recommended accepting Ebert Construction's bid for the North McFarland Road bridge project; supervisors said the start date is projected for March 2027 because of steel availability, giving crews more time for storm repairs this year.
Road & Bridge Supervisor Josh Hinch said CFS reviewed bids for the North McFarland Road bridge and that engineers recommended the bid from Ebert Construction. "The recommendation from the engineers is to accept the bid from Ebert Construction; Commissioners agreed," the minutes state.
Hinch told the commission the project is now projected to start in March 2027 because of steel availability, not this construction season. He said the delay allows Road & Bridge crews to focus on storm repairs and maintenance across the county during 2026. The minutes do not record a formal signed contract or vote on award at this meeting; staff indicated the recommendation will guide next steps with procurement and scheduling.
