South Gate Citywide Intersection Improvements Project

The City of South Gate Public Works Department is requesting proposals for the Citywide Intersection Improvements Project, a pedestrian and motorist safety enhancement at seven major intersections, with bids due August 27, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time.

The scope encompasses upgrading traffic signal hardware — installing retroflective back plates on existing signal heads and removing or replacing existing signal heads at various intersections. The project includes implementing Leading Pedestrian Intervals at three intersections along Firestone Boulevard; installing high-visibility crosswalks with advance limit lines at Firestone Boulevard and Garfield Avenue; and extending the raised median at Southern Place and Atlantic Avenue to prevent eastbound left turns. Work is performed within the City of South Gate, California (Los Angeles County).

Bids must be submitted in paper format using a lump-sum award type with line items. No bonding is required. An online question-and-answer period closes August 19, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time. No pre-bid meeting is scheduled. The RFP does not disclose estimated bid value, project start date, or project duration.

The project is classified under NAICS 238210 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors) and 541330 (Engineering Services). Contact Jose Loera, City of South Gate Public Works Department, at (323) 563-9578 or jjloera@sogate.org for inquiries.
