The Wisconsin Department of Transportation is seeking contractors for rehabilitation of the Leo Frigo Bridge.
Bids are due Sept. 13. A guaranty of $100,000 is required.
Scope of Work
Contractors are being sought for structural repairs including structure repainting with a recycled abrasive, and structural overcoating of the Leo Frigo Bridge. Formerly known as the Tower Drive Bridge, the structure was renamed in 2002.
The structure was closed in 2013 after a 400-foot segment of the bridge sagged due to significant erosion around a pier’s footings. It had been part of a $17 million construction project which was completed that year. The bridge was reopened to traffic in January 2014.
