Ferris Road Improvements (Minnie Avenue to Cleveland Avenue) – Project 119514

Ferris Road (County Road 172) between Minnie Avenue and Cleveland Avenue will be rebuilt over a 1.19‑mile corridor in Franklin County, Ohio. The project includes full‑depth pavement replacement, shoulder widening, new on‑street parking, speed tables at two intersections, sidewalks, storm‑water drainage upgrades, bike lanes, upgraded lighting, and new signage. The work is to be performed under Ohio Department of Transportation specifications with an Engineer’s Estimate of $6.31 M and an 8 % small‑business participation goal. The contract will require a 100 % performance bond (or a 10 % certified/cashier’s check), compliance with prevailing‑wage rules, extensive safety and environmental plans, and submission of detailed unit‑price bids for each itemized scope. • Roadway resurfacing, base course, and pavement milling (≈ 9,930 ft of pavement). • Concrete sidewalks, curb & gutter, and retaining wall construction. • Storm‑water utilities: new PVC conduit, catch basins, manholes, and erosion‑control measures. • Utility relocations (gas, water, electric) and traffic‑control/detour signage. • Mandatory safety programs (concrete, cranes, silica, electrical, excavation, etc.) and weekly certified‑payroll reporting.
