Low bid comes in under estimate to pave roads - March 31, 2011
A Wampum company submitted the apparent low bid to pave streets in the Rombold Road area of Hermitage. Youngblood Paving Inc.’s bid of $307,135 was the lowest of six opened Wednesday. Engineer Herbert, Rowland and Grubic Inc., Hermitage, had estimated the work would cost $330,000 and the other bids ranged from $324,510 to $364,199. The project calls for paving Rombold, Delaware Street and the parts of Haywood, Mary, Paul, Madison, Carolyn and Stafford streets in Hermitage. City commissioners likely will award a contract in April. This project will complete a three-phase, two-year program of storm water drainage improvements and road repairs in the area with the use of federal Community Development Block Grant funds.

The southbound lane of North Buhl Farm Drive is closed to traffic as workers from Combine Construction Inc. replace water lines. A detour forces drivers to travel east on Highland Avenue.


Hermitage firm awarded contract for street work - March 9, 2011
Hermitage commissioners on Tuesday awarded a contract for road construction and storm water drainage improvements in the Woodside Drive area to David Construction Co. Inc., Hermitage. The company’s bid, $816,304, was the lowest of 10. The pre-bid estimate was $1.1 million. Work will be done on Woodside from Boyd Drive to Lyle Drive; Lyle from Woodside to Highland Road; Richmond Drive from Woodside to Highland; Cohasset Drive from Woodside north to the cul-de-sac; and Pine Tree Lane. New signs will be put up and the company will try to minimize traffic disruptions, Hinkson said. “We are going to try to keep the streets open,” he said. “There might be some periodic adjustments in traffic flow.” Officials hope the work will be done in the fall.
