Replacement of Runway 6-24 Engineered Material Arresting System

The City of Manchester, New Hampshire, is seeking a contractor to replace the engineered material arresting system for Runway 6-24. The agency needs to address the degradation of the existing runway safety infrastructure by removing the current system and preparing the underlying surface for a new installation. This project aims to maintain airport safety standards and ensure compliance with aviation regulations through the restoration of the runway arresting area. The scope of work covers the removal and disposal of the existing engineered material arresting system, followed by the milling and crack sealing of the existing asphalt pavement. The selected contractor must perform a proposed asphalt pavement overlay and install a new, owner-provided engineered material arresting system. Additional requirements include the installation of retro-reflective markers, pavement grooving, pavement markings, and all other associated incidental work. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency requires the performance of the work to be conducted offsite at the Manchester airport location. The agency is looking for budget proposals from bidders, and the evaluation will be based on these submissions. A pre-bid meeting is scheduled for June 10, 2026, to discuss the project requirements.
