North Bascule Gate Hydraulic Cylinder Installation

The City of Rocky Mount (City) seeks the services of a qualified and licensed contractor to install one replacement hydraulic cylinder on the North Bascule Gate at the Tar River Water Supply Reservoir Dam. In September 2025, one of the three hydraulic cylinders supporting the North Bascule Gate failed mechanically. The gate was subsequently raised and secured in the fully upright position using temporary stiff-knee supports. The failed cylinder was removed. The city has procured a replacement hydraulic cylinder and associated pins, which will be delivered to the project site for installation. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, supervision, equipment, tools, rigging, lifting devices, jacks, materials, transportation, and incidentals necessary to complete the work described herein.
