UT FLAP WEB 10(1) Causey Reservoir Access 6982AF25B000014
Summary
AI-generated · Sep 17, 2025Improvements to Causey Reservoir access require major reconstruction and realignment of Causey Road and Wheat Grass Canyon Road, with realignment of a three-way intersection to route through traffic toward the Causey Dam Overlook. Work includes widening to a 22-foot two-lane section in key rebuilt segments, installation of mechanically stabilized earth walls, paving, guardrails, and culvert/ditch work, along with safety and road-surface improvements to meet current standards. The project also includes options that add bridge/culvert replacements and additional road work along Skull Crack Road and Causey Road, each with its own scope of improvements aimed at providing safer, more reliable access.
Option X would replace a small bridge crossing (Beaver Creek) with a larger precast reinforced concrete culvert structure, with associated dewatering and cofferdams; Option Y would reconstruct Skull Crack Road to the same standard 22-foot width and replace a deteriorated large-diameter pipe with a concrete box culvert; Option Z would rehabilitate portion of Causey Road to a consistent 22-foot paved width, upgrading culverts, guardrails, and ditching. A non-mandatory pre-bid site visit is offered to familiarize bidders with the site and scope, with attendance not required to bid. The project is planned as a multi-season effort with a winter shutdown and requires coordination with local authorities to keep Causey Dam accessible during closures. Estimated project cost range is $10 million to $20 million.
THIS IS NOT AN INVITIATION FOR BID, PLAN AND SPEFICIATIONS ARE NOT AVAILBLE PROJECT NUMBER: UT FLAP WEB 10(1) PROJECT NAME: CAUSEY RESERVOIR ACCESS SET- ASIDE: FULL AND OPEN Competition with HUBZone Price Preference PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Project goal is to improve access to Causey Reservoir on the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forests in Weber County, Utah. The project begins at the intersection of Utah State Route 39 and Causey Road, located approximately 10.5 miles east of Huntsville, Utah. The project includes improvements along Causey Road, Wheat Grass Canyon Road, and Skull Crack Road. The project is in rolling terrain within the elevation ranging from 5464.75 to 5779.21 feet. Proposed improvements include schedules and options: Schedule A: 4R improvements consisting of 0.65 miles on Causey Road and Wheat Grass Canyon Road. Option X: Beaver Creek structure replacement. Option Y: 4R improvements consisting of 0.56 miles on Skull Crack Road. Option Z: 3R improvements consisting of 1.39 miles on Causey Road. SCOPE OF THE WORK: Schedule A: Major reconstruction on portions of Causey Road and Wheat Grass Canyon Road. All road closures must be coordinated with Boy Scouts of America. Three-way intersection improvements: Causey Road will be realigned to change the through movement traffic pattern to Causey Dam Overlook Road instead of Wheat Grass Canyon Road. This realignment would improve the sight distance, promote travel across the dam, and produce on-site material. Wheat Grass Canyon Road: Proposed improvements for the first 0.46-miles will provide a 22-foot width through the paved areas and 5 (five) mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls (ranging from 9 to 19 feet tall) are required to provide a full two-lane roadway width at locations of severe outboard slope erosion. The proposed improvements will enhance driver safety, expectations, and ride quality by addressing existing conditions where the roadway transitions from two lanes to one and where pavement and aggregate surfaces vary. Option X: Beaver Creek is conveyed through Causey Road via a bridge, 30-feet wide by 18-feet long, with a 7-ft tall concrete frame structure. The existing roadway width is 20-feet. The existing structure is approximately 50 years old and is located on a local road outside the forest. Bridge railings are functionally obsolete. Proposed improvements will replace the bridge with a 36-feet long, 24-feet span precast reinforced concrete three-sided culvert with precast reinforced concrete headwalls and wingwalls. Concrete seals will be required due to depth of foundations below water table. Proposed crossing replacement will be a 3-sided prefabricated structure. Shallow foundation design bearing on soil: Bearing capacity of soil and design parameters for earth pressures to aid in wingwall design are detailed in the geotechnical report. One 3-week closure will be permitted between early September and mid-October or mid-November through late February. Road closures are to be coordinated with Bureau of Reclamation and Weber Basin Authority to ensure Causey Dam is accessible. Option Y: Skull Crack Road is currently aggregate surface and will be reconstructed to have consistent 22-foot typical section. Minor roadway geometric improvements are needed to meet current design and safety standards. The existing deteriorated 72-inch corrugated metal pipe is to be replaced with 12-ft span by 8-ft rise, concrete box culvert. Option Z: Proposed improvements for Causey Road include rehabilitation of the existing roadway to provide 1.46 miles of 22-foot uniform paved roadway width to address deteriorated pavement. Culverts and guardrails will be replaced where necessary, and ditches will be rehabilitated where feasible.

Three-way intersection improvements: Causey Road will be realigned to change the through movement traffic pattern to Causey Dam Overlook Road instead of Wheat Grass Canyon Road. This realignment would improve the sight distance, promote travel across the dam, and produce on-site material. Wheat Grass Canyon Road: Proposed improvements for the first 0.46-miles will provide a 22-foot width through the paved areas and 5 (five) mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls (ranging from 9 to 19 feet tall) are required to provide a full two-lane roadway width at locations of severe outboard slope erosion. The proposed improvements will enhance driver safety, expectations, and ride quality by addressing existing conditions where the roadway transitions from two lanes to one and where pavement and aggregate surfaces vary. Option X: Beaver Creek is conveyed through Causey Road via a bridge, 30-feet wide by 18-feet long, with a 7-ft tall concrete frame structure. The existing roadway width is 20-feet. The existing structure is approximately 50 years old and is located on a local road outside the forest. Bridge railings are functionally obsolete. Proposed improvements will replace the bridge with a 36-feet long, 24-feet span precast reinforced concrete three-sided culvert with precast reinforced concrete headwalls and wingwalls. Concrete seals will be required due to depth of foundations below water table. Proposed crossing replacement will be a 3-sided prefabricated structure. Shallow foundation design bearing on soil: Bearing capacity of soil and design parameters for earth pressures to aid in wingwall design are detailed in the geotechnical report. One 3-week closure will be permitted between early September and mid-October or mid-November through late February. Road closures are to be coordinated with Bureau of Reclamation and Weber Basin Authority to ensure Causey Dam is accessible. Option Y: Skull Crack Road is currently aggregate surface and will be reconstructed to have consistent 22-foot typical section. Minor roadway geometric improvements are needed to meet current design and safety standards. The existing deteriorated 72-inch corrugated metal pipe is to be replaced with 12-ft span by 8-ft rise, concrete box culvert. Option Z: Proposed improvements for Causey Road include rehabilitation of the existing roadway to provide 1.46 miles of 22-foot uniform paved roadway width to address deteriorated pavement. Culverts and guardrails will be replaced where necessary, and ditches will be rehabilitated where feasible.

From Solicitation posted on Nov 12, 2025PROJECT NUMBER: UT FLAP WEB 10(1) PROJECT NAME: CAUSEY RESERVOIR ACCESS SET- ASIDE: FULL AND OPEN Competition with HUBZone Price Preference PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Project goal is to improve access to Causey Reservoir on the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forests in Weber County, Utah. The project begins at the intersection of Utah State Route 39 and Causey Road, located approximately 10.5 miles east of Huntsville, Utah. The project includes improvements along Causey Road, Wheat Grass Canyon Road, and Skull Crack Road. The project is in rolling terrain within the elevation ranging from 5464.75 to 5779.21 feet. Proposed improvements include schedules and options: Schedule A: 4R improvements consisting of 0.65 miles on Causey Road and Wheat Grass Canyon Road. Option X: Beaver Creek structure replacement. Option Y: 4R improvements consisting of 0.56 miles on Skull Crack Road. Option Z: 3R improvements consisting of 1.39 miles on Causey Road. SCOPE OF THE WORK: Schedule A: Major reconstruction on portions of Causey Road and Wheat Grass Canyon Road. All road closures must be coordinated with Boy Scouts of America. Three-way intersection improvements: Causey Road will be realigned to change the through movement traffic pattern to Causey Dam Overlook Road instead of Wheat Grass Canyon Road. This realignment would improve the sight distance, promote travel across the dam, and produce on-site material. Wheat Grass Canyon Road: Proposed improvements for the first 0.46-miles will provide a 22-foot width through the paved areas and 5 (five) mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls (ranging from 9 to 19 feet tall) are required to provide a full two-lane roadway width at locations of severe outboard slope erosion. The proposed improvements will enhance driver safety, expectations, and ride quality by addressing existing conditions where the roadway transitions from two lanes to one and where pavement and aggregate surfaces vary. Option X: Beaver Creek is conveyed through Causey Road via a bridge, 30-feet wide by 18-feet long, with a 7-ft tall concrete frame structure. The existing roadway width is 20-feet. The existing structure is approximately 50 years old and is located on a local road outside the forest. Bridge railings are functionally obsolete. Proposed improvements will replace the bridge with a 36-feet long, 24-feet span precast reinforced concrete three-sided culvert with precast reinforced concrete headwalls and wingwalls. Concrete seals will be required due to depth of foundations below water table. Proposed crossing replacement will be a 3-sided prefabricated structure. Shallow foundation design bearing on soil: Bearing capacity of soil and design parameters for earth pressures to aid in wingwall design are detailed in the geotechnical report. One 3-week closure will be permitted between early September and mid-October or mid-November through late February. Road closures are to be coordinated with Bureau of Reclamation and Weber Basin Authority to ensure Causey Dam is accessible. Option Y: Skull Crack Road is currently aggregate surface and will be reconstructed to have consistent 22-foot typical section. Minor roadway geometric improvements are needed to meet current design and safety standards. The existing deteriorated 72-inch corrugated metal pipe is to be replaced with 12-ft span by 8-ft rise, concrete box culvert. Option Z: Proposed improvements for Causey Road include rehabilitation of the existing roadway to provide 1.46 miles of 22-foot uniform paved roadway width to address deteriorated pavement. Culverts and guardrails will be replaced where necessary, and ditches will be rehabilitated where feasible.
