THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The June 22, 2026 Greenville City Council work session included a detailed South Carolina DOT presentation on replacing the S-149 West Faris Road bridge over Brushy Creek. The existing 1969 timber-pile bridge has reached end of life, is load-posted, and no longer meets current SCDOT design standards for traffic volumes of about 18,300 vehicles per day.

What it means for vendors

The proposed project will construct a new, wider concrete bridge with improved grades, sight distance, turning radii at Melville Avenue/Brookview Circle, and better accommodation for bike and pedestrian traffic. The presentation outlined an estimated construction value of roughly 8400000, a total project cost including preliminary engineering, right-of-way, and utilities, a targeted January 2027 closure and about a 7‑month construction duration, and significant in-contract utility relocations for multiple providers. This is an active capital transportation project in design and preconstruction, and vendors can engage around construction services, traffic control, utility coordination, and public outreach support as SCDOT advances toward letting in spring 2027.

Background

Detour route length is about 3.6 miles using Augusta Road (SC-20), Grove Road (S-260), Henrydale Avenue (S-201), Mills Avenue (US-29), and Church Street; significant coordination is planned with local stakeholders and media outreach.

Questions about this project

What is a pre-RFP?

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

When will Greenville Transit Authority issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Greenville Transit Authority's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
