About this forecast

The Department of Transportation is seeking to procure advanced Connected Vehicle (CV) and cloud-based technologies to deploy the Rail Crossing Violation Warning (RCVW) system in a pilot program. This initiative aims to evaluate and validate the effectiveness of these technologies in reducing accidents at railroad grade crossings through real-world deployment in high-risk environments, with primary objectives including enhanced situational awareness for drivers, improved reliability of grade crossing activation reporting, and collection of user feedback to inform future system enhancements. The solicitation is forecasted for release on July 1, 2026.

The estimated award value ranges from $500,000 to $999,000 under a definitive contract with a sole source procurement approach. This pilot deployment project will be executed as a real-world validation study at high-risk railroad grade crossing locations. Jennifer Wilsnack, Federal Program Officer at the Department of Transportation, serves as the primary point of contact for this opportunity and can be reached at jennifer.wilsnack@dot.gov.
