About this opportunity
The Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA) is seeking a consultant to develop the Mobility Visioning Plan 2050, a comprehensive 18-month transportation strategy for Jacksonville and the Northeast Florida region. The procurement will focus initially on the Northwest community, with citywide implications for addressing critical mobility challenges including congestion, inadequate infrastructure, limited public transit, and inefficient land use patterns. Key deliverables include a final report, PowerPoint presentation, GIS features, marketing collateral, and a forward-facing progress dashboard that tracks implementation. The project requires extensive stakeholder engagement, data collection, and analysis to develop policy, program, and infrastructure recommendations across immediate, short-term, medium-term, and long-term timeframes. Proposals are due by 2:00 pm ET on Tuesday, February 25, 2025, and will be evaluated through a best value competitive negotiation process. The RFP emphasizes comprehensive performance monitoring and supports local, regional, and federal plan adoption, with the consultant responsible for developing a transformative mobility strategy for Jacksonville's 850 square miles of diverse communities.
The project has a 30% Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goal, indicating a commitment to inclusive procurement practices. Funding for the project will be explored through multiple sources, including development impact fees, mobility fees, transit and toll revenue, local and state taxes, federal and state grants, and potential public-private partnerships. While no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, the procurement appears open to qualified consulting firms with expertise in transportation planning, urban development, and community engagement. The total contract value will be determined through the proposal process, with no predetermined budget range explicitly stated in the documentation. The project's initial focus on the Northwest community, particularly in response to a recent community tragedy, suggests a nuanced approach that prioritizes community healing, resilience, and inclusive planning. Prospective respondents should demonstrate capabilities in comprehensive mobility planning, stakeholder engagement, data analysis, and the ability to develop forward-thinking transportation strategies that address complex urban mobility challenges.
Opportunity text
In recent years, Jacksonville and the Northeast Florida region have experienced rapid growth and development, resulting in increased demand on its transportation infrastructure and services. However, the existing transportation system faces numerous challenges that hinder its ability to meet the evolving needs of residents, businesses, and visitors. Congestion, inadequate pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, unreliable and underutilized public transit, limited accessibility for vulnerable populations, safety concerns, and environmental and drainage impacts are among the key issues plaguing the city's mobility landscape. Jacksonville's continued direction toward low density, sprawl development with segregated, widely separated uses further complicates transportation options. The lack of a comprehensive and forward-thinking mobility strategy has led to fragmented and siloed planning efforts, duplication of effort, inefficient resource allocation, and missed opportunities for innovation. Without intervention, these challenges threaten to undermine the city's economic competitiveness, environmental sustainability, and overall quality of life. Bearing this in mind, there is an urgent need for an updated vision on land use development patterns and densities in concert with a comprehensive city-wide mobility vision plan that establishes a clear roadmap for transforming the city's transportation network. This plan will address the unique needs of 850 square miles of diverse communities within the city of Jacksonville by taking a comprehensive look at all things mobility.
The initial focus of the Mobility Visioning Plan 2050 is on Jacksonville's Northwest community, responding to the recent tragedy at the Dollar General and addressing the need for targeted support and engagement. This initial focus will emphasize public outreach to ensure that community voices shape the planning process, identifying solutions that address specific challenges and immediate actions to promote healing and resilience. Citywide tasks, such as project management, visioning, and data collection/analysis, are integrated with this initial focus to achieve economies of scale, streamlining efforts across neighborhoods while fostering a safe, inclusive, and connected future for Jacksonville.
