YORKTON - Fedorowich Construction of Yorkton has been awarded the paving contract for work on Gladstone Avenue and Smith Street.
For 2022 the majority of Gladstone Avenue Â鶹´«Ã½AV from the roundabout to Broadway Street will receive a surface patch to improve ride-ability over the short term, explained Trent Mandzuk – Director of Public Works, with the city at the regular meeting of Yorkton Council Monday.
The eastern portion of Smith from First Avenue to Sixth Avenue will receive a full width mill/fill asphalt overlay with curb and sidewalk improvements.
Fedorowich Construction was the only bidder for the project at $712,060 (plus taxes).
Mandzuk said while appreciating multiple tenders are preferred to ensure a good price, the unit cost on asphalt in the tender is in line with 2021 numbers.
The tender cost is also under the pre-tender budget of just more than $800,000.
The 2022 paving program will be funded through a combination of roadway and concrete funds from the operating budget.
Council was unanimous in acceptance of the tender.
Completion date deadline for the contract is September 30, 2022.
