HOW DO I BECOME A CONTRACTOR FOR THE AUTHORITY?

Construction/Rehabilitation

Contracts of this type must, by law, be let by the competitive bidding process. In these instances, the Authority advertises in newspapers in the county(s) where the work will be done, the New York State Contract Reporter and construction trade journals. The Association of General Contractors, Construction Contractors Association, Construction Industry Council, Dodge Reports and Eastern Contractors Association are also notified.

In addition, the Authority posts construction contract information on the Construction/ Contractors section. You can obtain a listing of available contracts for bidding under the Thruway Projects and Plan Sales section. The Authority also posts Thruway Bid Results. Simply select the project number you are interested in and it will direct you to that project's bid page.

Plans and proposals are available for inspection at the Authority's Headquarters in Albany and Division Offices in Buffalo, Syracuse and Tarrytown. The plans may be inspected at these offices at no cost, or purchased for a nominal fee.
