NIGP 55022: Gaskets, Traffic Markers and Dividers

NIGP 55022 Gaskets, Traffic Markers and Dividers (Item) encompasses the procurement of traffic control equipment and pavement-marking materials that state and local governments purchase to manage roadway safety, intersection operations, and work-zone delineation. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers acquiring traffic signal components (heads, poles, pedestrian equipment, detection systems, wiring), delineator posts with reflective sheeting, pavement striping materials (painted, thermoplastic, and tape-based), temporary traffic control devices, and associated hardware. County transportation departments and municipal public works and streets departments dominate the issuing-body mix, with transit-adjacent and special-purpose corridor development authorities also appearing. The scope spans both one-time capital installations (such as new traffic signal construction at individual intersections) and ongoing maintenance and supply replenishment on an as-needed basis through blanket-purchase or cooperative-vehicle agreements.

Recent opportunities cluster in Florida and Georgia, with activity also in California (Sacramento County), Wisconsin (Madison), Michigan (Detroit), and Texas (Temple).
