Subject:
West Shore Parkway Segment 1 Tender Award
Background
The purpose of this report is to inform Council of the West Shore Parkway Segment 1 tender results and receive approval to award the contract.
Commentary
The West Shore Parkway is being designed to connect the Trans-Canada Highway through the currently constructed West Shore Parkway to Highway 14/ Sooke Road; it is divided into nine (9) Segments that are designed and tendered separately from each other. Segment 1 of the West Shore Parkway is the signalized intersection with Highway 14/ Sooke Road, connecting to Segment 2 and the Glenshire Business Park. Although Highway 14/ Sooke Road is owned and maintained by the Provincial Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MoTI), the design and construction of Segment 1 is being administered by City staff; the completed project will then be turned over to the MoTI once the project is complete and the traffic signal is commissioned.
A total of five (5) contractors submitted bids for this project; a summary of the bids is presented below. An analysis of the bids was completed by Tetra Tech WEI Inc. who is recommending that the contract be awarded to Windley Contracting Ltd. for an amount of $1,353,288.00 plus GST.
Not included in this tender is the electrical works which includes the installation and commissioning of the traffic signal and streetlights. A quote was supplied by the MoTI’s electrical contractor, Raylec Power LP, for $222,940.00 plus GST. This amount is comparable to previous signal installation projects and the cost estimate provided by Tetra Tech.
