DESCRIPTION
The Transportation Planning Organization requested Procurement to solicit proposals from qualified firms to provide a Vision Zero Action Plan. The goal of this project is to produce a completed Vision Zero Action Plan that will enhance the past and ongoing Vision Zero efforts of Polk County and its municipal partners. The project will result in a federally qualifying, highly rated, comprehensive, and robust strategy to reach the target of zero transportation-related fatalities countywide. This Action Plan will make Polk County and its municipal partners eligible for future Federal SS4A Implementation Grants.
Request for Proposal (RFP) 23-565, Professional Planning Services for the Vision Zero Action Plan under the Safe Streets for All Road Users (SS4A) Grant Program was issued, and four vendors submitted proposals. On August 6, 2024, the Board approved the selection committee’s recommendation to enter into contract negotiations with AECOM Technical Services.
The attached agreement is the result of those negotiations.
The services are estimated to be completed within 24 months, yet the agreement will remain in place until the services are completed.
