Downtown Complete Streets Plan - Granite Street Final Design

The Town of Frisco, Colorado is seeking consulting services for the Downtown Complete Streets Plan - Granite Street Final Design project, with proposals due on March 22, 2024 at 4:00 pm. The procurement involves comprehensive design services for approximately 3,000 linear feet of Granite Street from Madison Avenue to Summit Boulevard, requiring 100% construction documents that encompass surveying, geometric layout, roadway alignments, grading, storm drainage, pedestrian infrastructure, traffic analysis, utility engineering, landscaping, and pedestrian lighting. Proposers must design the project according to CDOT and federal standards, with potential federal grant requirements. The evaluation will be based on weighted criteria: qualifications and references (20%), project manager and personnel (20%), project approach (20%), grants and CDOT experience (20%), and fee schedule (20%). The anticipated project timeline includes project kickoff in July 2024, 60% design by November 2024, 90% design by February 2025, 100% design by May 2025, and construction anticipated in April 2026. The Town plans to apply for a DOLA EIAF Tier 1 Grant in March 2024 and anticipates submitting CDOT and FHWA grant program applications to support construction funding.

While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly mentioned, the Town will select the proposer deemed best for the project, considering price, experience, proposed methodology, timeline, and references. The project's total estimated construction cost is $10,229,000, which includes direct item costs, right-of-way acquisitions, mobilization, traffic maintenance, construction engineering, and inspection. The cost estimate incorporates a 4.5% annual escalation factor based on 2022 dollars, with unit costs derived from CDOT and local bid tabulations. The project will involve significant infrastructure improvements, including new concrete and asphalt pavement, plastic pipes, manholes, inlets, sidewalks, curb ramps, brick pavers, lightposts, signage, and landscaping elements. Notably, the town has specified the use of custom solar-powered lights matching Main Street, eliminating previous hardwired lighting requirements. The project will require approximately 25 temporary construction easements across 50 adjacent properties and involves comprehensive stormwater drainage system improvements.
