The City of HUNTINGTON PARK (City) is seeking proposals from qualified consulting professionals experienced in construction management and inspection services specifically related to the administration, monitoring and enforcement of Caltrans local assistance funded capital improvement projects. Focus is on non-motorized modes of transportation as part of CIP 2019-14 ATP Cycle V (Project). The purpose of ATP is to encourage increased use of active modes of transportation by achieving the following goals: Increase the proportion of trips accomplished by biking and walking Increase safety and mobility for non-motorized users Advance the active transportation efforts of regional agencies to achieve Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reduction goals, pursuant to SB 375 (of 2008) and SB 341 (of 2009) Enhance public health Ensure that disadvantaged communities fully share in the benefits of the program Provide a broad spectrum of projects to benefit many types of active transportation users. The proposed project will create pedestrian safety and mobility enhancements along Gage Avenue, State Street, California Avenue, and the intersection of Florence Avenue at Bissell Street. It builds off previous safety initiatives and targets persistent concerns along Gage Avenue, where pedestrian ramp improvements and sidewalk replacement will improve safety and encourage active transportation for ten schools along Gage Avenue and seven schools along State Street. The project also adds four transit bus pads that will provide ADA-access and stable station platforms for all ages that will promote more active transportation to and from bus services. Pedestrian ramps will be improved along the residential corridor of California Avenue. Finally, HAWK beacons at three critical mid-block locations in the city, including the intersection of Florence Avenue and Bissell Street will improve north-south pedestrian safety to schools near Salt Lake Park. These infrastructure improvements will increase pedestrian mode share for sixteen elementary, middle, and high schools with a cumulative enrollment of 14,595 students. This will address a youth population with the highest rate of collision fatalities and obesity in the State. The City is seeking a qualified consultant to provide construction management and inspection services. The consultant applying should have significant experience in providing this type of service. The City reserves the right to delete specific task(s). Request for information deadline: 5:00 pm april 10, 2024
