The City of Greenville and the Greenville Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) are issuing a Request for Letters of Interest (RFLOI) for qualified consultants to develop the 2026 update to the Greenville MPO Active Transportation Plan. This is a professional services procurement for a long-range transportation planning document that will identify and prioritize existing and future bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure projects within the MPO's planning area. Required consultant qualifications include pre-qualification by the North Carolina Department of Transportation and demonstrated expertise across multiple discipline codes, including landscape and streetscape design, multimodal transportation planning, public involvement, long-range transportation planning, visualization, municipal and regional planning studies, multi-use trail design, multimodal map preparation, and multimodal connectivity and facilities planning. Key project deliverables include a baseline conditions assessment, public engagement materials, project evaluation frameworks, and a final active transportation plan document suitable for adoption by planning boards and municipal authorities. The consultant must conduct comprehensive data collection and analysis of existing conditions, stakeholder engagement activities, identification of future infrastructure needs, and GIS-based transportation analysis. Critical deadlines include a questions deadline of March 25, 2026 at noon, a final addendum issuance date of March 27, 2026, and a letters of interest submission deadline of April 2, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
