Lone rail-trail bidder fails to meet standards

The city has found no acceptable bidder for the removal of 7,000 feet of unused railroad tracks along the Merrimack River from the Basiliere Bridge to the Comeau Bridge.Mayoral Chief of Staff Andrew Herlihy and the Friends of the Bradford Rail Trail Committee had hoped to settle on an organization by the end of the summer, but only one company offered a bid in time for a July 22 deadline."It didn't meet quality recommendations," Herlihy said.

The estimated value of the material is $20,000, Herlihy said.
