THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

MDOT Contract No. 26-5278 covers resurfacing Marquette Avenue from Ashmun to Seymour with milling, new hot mix asphalt, curb and gutter, sidewalks, ADA ramps, and pavement markings. The estimated construction cost is $588,400, with up to $362,000 in federal STP funding and a $226,400 City share, and MDOT is already bidding the project with an August 7, 2026 letting. Construction and materials vendors gain incumbent insight and timing for potential subcontracting, materials supply, and coordination with a related tribal project scheduled for 2027 on the same corridor.

Background

City will fund the additional $116,400 local match from the Road Contingency Fund; MDOT administers the construction contract under the federal STP Small Urban Program.

Questions about this project

What is a pre-RFP?

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Sault Ste. Marie's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
