Wilton Area Roadway Resiliency Project

Sacramento County Department of Transportation (SacDOT) has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Wilton Area Roadway Resiliency Project, seeking engineering and planning services to develop a Resilience Improvement Plan for transportation infrastructure along the Cosumnes River. The primary objective is to enhance existing roadways' ability to withstand flooding and wildfires through comprehensive analysis, preliminary design, and community-focused improvements. Deliverables include 30% design plans, cost estimates, and a Roadway Resiliency Plan, with an 18-month completion timeline from contract execution. Proposal evaluation will be based on quality of proposed services (30%), experience and qualifications (50%), and proposal compliance (20%). The prime consultant must be a California-registered civil engineer with recent experience in similar projects, capable of providing deliverables in AutoCAD 2025, Microsoft Word 365, and Microsoft Excel 365. Proposals are due by February 19, 2026, and must be submitted through OpenGov Procurement. The project will explore nature-based solutions, drainage improvements, culvert upgrades, and the addition of bicycle lanes to increase mobility and active transportation options in the Wilton community.

The project is funded through a Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant for fiscal year 2025-2026, with compensation provided on a time and materials basis. The consultant is required to maintain comprehensive general liability insurance with a $2,000,000 general aggregate limit, professional liability insurance of $2,000,000 per claim and aggregate, and workers' compensation insurance at statutory limits. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the project involves multiple stakeholders including Caltrans and local government agencies. Federal funding requirements, prevailing wage compliance, nondiscrimination provisions, and Title VI assurances will apply to the project. The County reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and negotiate with proposers, with the final contract to be awarded using the County of Sacramento Standard Consulting Agreement. The total not-to-exceed amount will be established upon contract execution, though a specific budget range is not provided in the available documentation. The project spans jurisdictions including Sacramento County and San Francisco City, with a focus on the Wilton community's transportation infrastructure resilience.
