REQUIREMENT
Parks Canada Agency (PCA) is currently developing a project to build a multi-user trail (Type 1) and picnic areas in the Beaver sector of Forillon National Park. The project aims to create approximately 2.8 new kilometers of trail between the Centre d'Acceuil et de Découverte du havre de Cap-des-Rosiers and the western end of the portion of Route 132 that was abandoned a few years ago, in the Castor sector. Ultimately, the project aims to increase the number of walking trails available to enrich the experience of visitors to the national park.
As part of this project, Parks Canada needs a contractor to build this multi-user trail and the 2 associated picnic areas. The trail will be built primarily on or along pre-existing, existing or older, abandoned road alignments, and 2 road crossings (including one on existing Route 132) are planned as part of the project.
Parks Canada has already retained the services of a consulting engineering firm to plan, analyze and design the plans and specifications for this project. With this step completed, Parks Canada is now proceeding with the construction of this trail.
West of Route 132, the work will be carried out in an area that is normally busy with visitors during park operations, i.e. from early June to mid-October, but this area will be closed for the duration of the work. On the other hand, east of Highway 132, the work will have to take into account traffic levels, as this area will not be closed for the occasion.
The work covered by this contract involves the construction of a new multi-user trail and the development of adjoining picnic areas. This work includes, but is not limited to :
• The addition of new culverts under the proposed multi-user trail, including excavation, supply and installation of the new culvert, backfilling and stonework at the ends as indicated in the plans and specifications; • Preparation of infrastructure surfaces for construction of the multi-user trail, including flush cutting of stumps, grubbing including root removal in indicated areas, removal of all tree debris from the ground, and pruning and/or cutting of isolated trees in accordance with the requirements of the plans and specifications. • Removal and management of topsoil in specified areas. • Construction of a multi-user trail approximately 3.5 m wide and 2.8 km long, with occasional widening, including excavation, installation of a geotextile membrane, backfilling, subgrade preparation, granular base, CG-14 pavement and topsoil. • The construction of two (2) picnic areas, one on Old Route 132 and the other near the existing Stationnement du Castor, including the levelling of the granular surface in place as well as the construction of concrete bases to accommodate the outdoor furniture provided for in the plans and to be installed outside this contract. • All excavations and backfilling required for the construction of the works. • Environmental protection measures for work in watercourses and wetlands. • Construction of a pedestrian crossing on Route 132, including installation of signage and pavement markings. • Clean-up of Route 132 where necessary during the entire construction period, at the end of the work and upon request by Parks Canada. • Occupational health and safety management for the duration of the work.
All work must be performed in accordance with federal and provincial regulations applicable to the agencies having jurisdiction over the work. The work is subject to the National Parks Act and Regulations, the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, the Canada Labour Code and the Quebec Occupational Health and Safety Regulations.
To assist with bonding and insurance requirements, this project is estimated at a value between $500,001 > $ 1,000,000, Taxes extra.
