Cheyenne MPO 24 Hour Traffic Counts - 2025

The Cheyenne Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is seeking a contractor to conduct comprehensive traffic volume data collection within the Cheyenne urban area for the 2025 fiscal year. The procurement involves collecting a total of 400 traffic volume counts during September and November 2025, specifically 300 24-hour volume counts capturing date, time, and total volume, and 100 additional 24-hour volume counts that include heavy truck classifications and 85% speed data. Data collection must occur exclusively on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays between September 2 and November 20, 2025, with strict requirements for location reporting and avoiding construction or inclement weather periods. Bidders are required to submit pricing through the OpenGov Procurement Portal and obtain a right-of-way (ROW) permit from the city. The solicitation includes a deadline for questions on August 18, 2025, with final responses due on August 21, 2025, at 2:00 pm, and an estimated purchase order issuance date of August 22, 2025. Evaluation criteria will likely include responsiveness, qualifications, and alignment with the city's specific data collection requirements.

The procurement appears to be open to all qualified vendors, with a potential 5% Wyoming resident bidder preference potentially influencing selection. Bidders must complete a vendor questionnaire, provide suspension and debarment certification, and submit comprehensive firm/bidder information. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, standard municipal bidding provisions suggest a commitment to fair and open competition. The City of Cheyenne, as a tax-exempt political subdivision, reserves the right to adjust quantities based on budget availability. Although a specific budget range is not detailed, the pricing structure is based on a per-count basis, with costs expected to be calculated according to the two distinct types of traffic count services required. Contractors will need proper licensing to work in Cheyenne, which may incur additional fees, and the MPO has indicated they will assess supplemental costs for any count locations beyond the initial 400 specified in the solicitation.
