| Description: |
The Town of Sylvan Lake invites Prequalification Submissions from interested General Contractors for the construction of the Northeast Gateway Water Supply Main CP1923-02. This project comprises the installation of approximately 4.7 kilometres of 550mm (outside diameter) HDPE DR11 water main. The alignment commences at the existing North Municipal Reservoir on TWP 391 in Red Deer County, extends south along Range Road 12, crosses the CN Rail at the County boundary, and continues to the east end of Cuendet Industrial Way through the future Norell Industrial Area. The scope of work includes:
It is the intention of the Town to prequalify General Contractors with underground potable water installations by Horizontal Directional Drilling, case bore augering and open cut construction experience. Interested parties must demonstrate proven experience in large-diameter HDPE water main construction using HDD methods, adherence to stringent environmental and safety standards as well as commissioning and testing of potable water systems. The project aims to enhance the Town of Sylvan Lake’s water distribution capacity for current users and to support future development. Prequalification is the first stage in a two-stage procurement process. Only contractors who successfully meet the prequalification criteria will be invited to submit bids during the subsequent Invitational Bid stage. |
