About this opportunity

The City of Idaho Springs is seeking consulting firms through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No. 2024-4 for the Downtown Mobility Plan General Planning and Engineering Services. The project, located northeast of Interstate 70 Exit 240, is estimated at $40 million and encompasses several critical infrastructure improvements. Key deliverables include designing a Mobility Hub/Transit Center to accommodate multiple transit options, constructing a parking structure for 280 vehicles with electric vehicle charging capabilities, improving downtown parking lots, developing a roundabout to manage traffic circulation, and reconstructing Miner Street in the three-block National Historic District. The RFQ requires expertise in program management, grant writing, environmental and civil engineering, traffic engineering, and construction management. Evaluation criteria will focus on consultant qualifications, project approach, experience with mountain communities, and project management capabilities. Proposals are due by August 6, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time, with an anticipated contract duration of three years and potential extensions up to five years.

While no specific Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goals have been established, DBE participation is expected to be required for this federally funded project. Funding sources include a $2,410,000 federal RAISE Planning Grant, a $250,000 state LOMA grant, and $6,300,000 from CDOT's 10-Year Plan. The City intends to apply for a RAISE Capital Grant in early 2025 to finalize design and construction. The procurement will follow a Qualifications Based Selection (QBS) process, which means selection will be based primarily on the consulting firms' demonstrated capabilities rather than cost. The project will involve collaboration with multiple transit providers, including Colorado Department of Transportation's Bustang and Snowstang, Clear Creek County's Roundabout, Greyhound, and Loveland Ski Area's employee transportation services. The comprehensive mobility plan aims to enhance transportation infrastructure and create a more efficient, flexible urban transportation environment in Idaho Springs.
