Kentucky Revised Statutes Title XV. Roads, Waterways, and Aviation § 177.160.Rejection of bids; department may do work

(1) The department may by supplemental orders reject or order the rejection of all bids submitted for the work, or any part thereof, and require a readvertisement for bids. The department may reject all bids and elect to do the work itself, or partly by itself and by the railroad company, or by contractors, or by a combination of these methods. If the department elects to do the work itself there shall not be charged to the railroad company any sum in excess of that it would have been required to pay had the contract been let to the lowest bidder.

(2) In all cases where the work is let by the railroad company on contract, the work shall be done under the general supervision of the department.
