The City of Middletown is seeking, through this request for proposals (RFP), a comprehensive traffic signal inventory. Proposals shall meet the requirements set forth in this RFP. In addition, consultants shall be qualified and shall demonstrate experience in traffic signal inventories. The selected consultant shall provide a comprehensive traffic signal inventory of the 32 City-owned and maintained traffic signals in Middletown as illustrated in the table provided in Appendix A, along with recommendations for improvements is required. Existing signal equipment and intersection elements such as pedestrian and vehicular signal heads, cabinets, controller hardware, signage, and pavement markings are to be reviewed at each location for consistency with current State standards and National standards as published in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). Include make, model, and age of major elements where available, such cabinets and controllers. Compliance with ADA requirements should also be noted. In order to simplify the retrieval, storage, and maintenance of the information collected, the ability to be integrated with the City's existing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) platform is required, via geocoding and GIS layers. The primary objective of this study is to identify intersections in the City of Middletown where existing vehicle and pedestrian traffic signal equipment is non-compliant with current State and MUTCD standards. Several of Middletown's City-owned signals have been in operation for over 20 years and have reached or exceeded the typical life span of a traffic signal. In many cases, existing signalized intersections would benefit from equipment upgrades, signal coordination, complete signal replacement, signal removal, or geometric modifications. These improvements are important to increase safety, improve the efficiency of traffic operations, and reduce vehicle greenhouse gas emissions. Every request for an interpretation shall be made in writing, addressed and forwarded to the Supervisor of Purchases, Municipal Building, 245 DeKoven Drive, Middletown, Connecticut, 06457.
