RE: Bid Award-Pratt Trail Bridge Reconstruction
BACKGROUND
The Cooper D. Wells Bridge is a three-span masonry arch structure built in 1921 that spans over
the connection between the Menominee Park Lagoon and Lake Winnebago. The span of the
bridge over water measures approximately 50 feet. There are four curved wing walls, one at each
of the four corners of the bridge. All four wing walls have similar dimensions and are constructed
of unreinforced stone masonry. Each wing wall acts as a gravity retaining wall. The four wing
walls show signs of deterioration, with the northeast wing wall being in, by far, the worst
condition. The condition of the northeast wing wall has worsened substantially over the past few
years and has shown significant distresses and movements. To minimize any further deterioration
and to address these structural deficiencies as soon as possible,the City hired AECOM to conduct
an engineering analysis of the bridge and provide reconstruction bid specifications.
ANALYSIS
Working in conjunction with the Parks and Public Works Departments, Purchasing reviewed and
prepared proposals seeking contractors for this project. Bids were advertised in the local paper
and posted online on NovusVendor. Bids were received on September 12, 2012. The bid tab is
attached. City staff and AECOM reviewed the bids and concluded the low bids for the base bid
and alternate bids 2 & 3 from Cappelle Brothers & Diedrich, Inc. met the minimum bid
specifications.
FISCAL IMPACT
The bids will have a fiscal impact of$108,045. This item was not budgeted in the 2012 CIP.
City staff is recommending this project be funded from available savings realized from other
2012 CIP street projects. Funding would be charged to CIP A/N#: 315-0410-7480-00000.
RECOMMENDATION
Purchasing recommends the Common Council award this bid to Cappelle Brothers & Diedrich,
Inc. for$108,045.
Respectfully Submitted, Approved:
