This announcement is to determine interest, availability and capability of HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Women-Owned and Small Business concerns for this project. The NAICS code for this procurement is 238290. The project is planned to be issued in or about May 2018. The project is expected to take approximately one year to remove the existing elevators, and replace them. The estimated construction cost is between $1,000,000 and $5,000,000.00. The Cape Cod Canal Railroad Bridge was constructed in 1935 spanning the Cape Cod Canal. The 544 foot bridge is a vertical lift type with its normal position with the railroad in the raised position 135 feet above the canal to allow marine traffic to pass. The span is supported by two 270 foot towers. Most rail traffic occurs outside of normal construction hours. Each tower has a rack and pinion service elevator to ease access. This project will require the removal and replacement of two (2) complete rack and pinion service elevators including new electrical systems and controls, a potential option to replace the existing shaft enclosure and an option to provide an additional stop including catwalk/landing construction for a total of 4 stops in the North Tower and 3 stops in the South Tower. The clear space for the elevators is 3'0" by 4' 6" with an additional foot available on the long dimension for the mast. Total vertical lift will be 181 feet.
