Herrin road resurfacing bid deadline July 31: IDOT Contract 081-99775 details

Herrin drivers have a deadline to watch in IDOT’s bidding pipeline: the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) has posted a July 31, 2026 letting at 12:00 PM for Contract 081-99775, a resurfacing job covering two Herrin road segments.

Right now, the contract page also says “Plans and Special Provisions are not available at this time.” That means traffic-control staging and access details may be refined later via the full contract materials and any addenda.

What IDOT is letting for Herrin (Contract 081-99775)

According to IDOT’s contract detail for 081-99775, the resurfacing scope in the city of Herrin includes:

• Bandyville Rd: from Stotlar Rd to Crenshaw Rd
• Crenshaw Rd: from 0.3 mile west of Bandyville Rd to Bandyville Rd

IDOT lists 20 working days as the contract specifics for this letting.

What’s known (and what isn’t) in the current posting

IDOT states the contract details shown on the page are informational purposes only until the Plans and Special Provisions are published. If an addendum is posted, contract details may be revised.

Letting summary “current date” stamp

IDOT’s letting summary report for this package lists Letting Date: July 31, 2026 and a reporting timestamp of Current Date: July 16, 2026. In other words, the summary was updated as of July 16, 2026.

Bidder deadlines leading up to the July 31, 2026 letting

If you’re a contractor tracking submission cutoffs, IDOT’s “Important Dates for Bidders” page lists:

• Prequalification forms cutoff: July 10, 2026 at 4:30 PM (prevailing local time)
• Joint venture forms cutoff: July 24, 2026 at 4:30 PM (prevailing local time)
• Authorization-to-bid request cutoff: July 28, 2026 at 4:30 PM (prevailing local time)
• Electronic bid submittal cutoff (iCX): 12:00 PM (prevailing local time)

What Herrin residents and commuters should watch next

After the July 31 letting and once the plans are posted, watch for resurfacing-related traffic control along Bandyville Rd and Crenshaw Rd near the posted segment limits.

Because plans and special provisions aren’t available yet, the safest expectation from the current documents is possible corridor slowdowns sometime after the letting, with final day-to-day staging details likely to appear once IDOT publishes the full contract materials.
