Delaware County Seeks Bids for Repairs to Two Folsom Bridges

Delaware County is seeking bids for maintenance and repair work on two bridges in Folsom, with proposals due by 11 a.m. on August 5, 2026.

The project covers County Bridge 135 at 4th Avenue over Stony Creek and County Bridge 243 at 2nd Avenue over Stony Creek. The county’s July solicitation describes proposed repair work, but it does not represent a construction award or confirmation that work has begun.

What the proposed work includes

For Bridge 135, the listed work includes rock protection, preparation of the bridge-deck surface, installation of a latex concrete wearing surface, asphalt milling and repaving.

At Bridge 243, the solicitation calls for guiderail repairs and overhead Type 2 deck repairs.

The county held a pre-bid conference for prospective contractors on July 14, 2026. The next stated procurement milestone is the bid deadline at 11 a.m. on August 5, 2026.

The project is still in the procurement stage

As of July 27, 2026, the project remained listed on Delaware County’s formal-bidding page as an active opportunity. The reviewed county materials do not identify a winning contractor.

They also do not confirm a final project cost, construction start date, completion date or traffic-control plan. Any temporary closure, lane restriction, detour, construction noise or travel delay would depend on later project decisions and notices.

What Folsom residents should watch for

The county’s next updates should clarify whether bids are awarded, which contractor is selected and when work is expected to begin. Later notices may also explain how construction would affect 4th Avenue, 2nd Avenue and nearby routes over Stony Creek.

The work is part of Delaware County’s broader bridge-maintenance responsibilities. The county’s public-works information says it is responsible for 43 bridges and notes that bridge projects can involve construction activity or temporary detours. The county’s FY2026 budget presentation also lists Bridges 135 and 243 among 2026 maintenance and repair projects. That countywide context does not establish the schedule or traffic impact for either Folsom bridge.

For now, the confirmed local development is that Delaware County is soliciting bids. Residents, commuters and nearby businesses should treat any construction timing or detour information as unconfirmed until the county publishes an award, work schedule or traffic advisory.
