Requests for Proposals

The National Forest Foundation (NFF), in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service Umpqua National Forest (USFS), is working to restore and replace recreational infrastructure that was damaged during several wildfires. This project will replace eight North Umpqua Trail bridges damaged in the wildfires of 2020 and 2021 with new, prefabricated steel bridges and move one preexisting bridge to another site along the trail. The North Umpqua Trail spans over 70 miles along the iconic North Umpqua River with 30 miles having been impacted by wildfires. Bridge replacement will include removing the burned timber bridges, reconstructing the embankments, installing concrete abutments, fabricating new steel bridges, flying the bridges in via helicopter, and installing the bridges. This project will help to restore connectivity from the Mott segment to the Panther Creek Segment of the North Umpqua Trail.

Deadline:

Responses should be emailed by May 23, 2025.
