Requests for Proposals

In collaboration with the United States Forest Service (USFS), the National Forest Foundation (NFF or Project Administrator) is soliciting a contractor(s) to recondition approximately 2.15 miles of National Forest System Road (NFSR) 171 Junction Creek Road and apply a new chip and seal surface. This project will occur from mile post 0.00 at the transition of asphalt to aggregate at the end of LaPlata County Road 204 to mile post 2.0 at the intersection with the Log Chutes trail head parking area. NFSR 171 is currently a single lane (primarily 18’) aggregate surface road maintained for passenger car travel. Two Curves will require an additional 2 feet of curve widening, those curves are located at mile post 1.10 and 1.7.

In addition, there are several parking areas and transitions that will be included as optional bid items: Log Chutes Trailhead Parking Area, Junction Creek Campground intersection transition, Colorado Trailhead 1 and Colorado Trailhead 2. A labeled map is included as Appendix B.

Deadline:

Responses should be emailed by April 24, 2025.
