How to bid on Clarke County’s CCBS-103-26 Road Overlay Project
What Clarke County is buying
The Clarke County Board of Supervisors is seeking bids for an overlay project covering 1.928 miles of county and State Aid Roads “A” through “C” in Clarke County, Mississippi. The advertised contract time is 60 working days.
The award, if made, will go to the lowest qualified bidder based on the published quantities. This is a construction opportunity for firms that can price and perform road overlay work.
Deadline and bid opening
Sealed bids are due by 10:00 a.m. on Friday, November 20, 2026, and will be publicly opened shortly afterward. The listing’s deadline field says 11:00 a.m. ET, but the invitation to bid states 10:00 a.m.; follow the invitation’s stated time and confirm the instructions in the contract documents.
A 5% bid bond or certified check payable to Clarke County must accompany each proposal. A proposal that includes a letter qualifying its terms in any way will be considered irregular and not considered for award.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity suits construction firms with relevant road overlay experience and the ability to complete the work within the advertised 60 working days.
The invitation says bidders must indicate their certificate of responsibility number on the outside of a hard-copy bid envelope. Review the contract documents for the complete bid requirements.
