The City of Fremont is requesting Qualification Statements (RFQ) in the form of a Letter of Interest (LoI) from ODOT pre-qualified professional engineers to provide engineering and surveying services for the Citys W. State Street Improvements Project (S. Front Street to Rawson Avenue). The City was awarded state funding through the One Time Strategic Community Investment Funds, Section 200.30 of House Bill 2 and federal funding through the FY24 Community Project Funding/Congressionally Directed Spending programs. ODOT is administering the latter funding program. In addition to the above, the city teamed with Lucas, Wood, Ottawa and Sandusky Counties in submitting a Safe Streets for All (SS4A) funding application as a conglomerate. This funding application was approved and is being administered by the Federal Highway Administration with Lucas County being the primary funding grantee who will be working with the various Counties and Cities to develop and construct the projects. The SS4A project limits overlap this project, therefore coordination of the various design objectives and scoping will be necessary. This project will be a Local Public Agency (LPA) project with the selected consulting firm to provide necessary planning, survey and design services. Additional information concerning the RFQ may be obtained by contacting Mr. Frost at 419-334-5900 or Tucker Fredericksen, City Engineer at 419-334-8963, tfredericksen@fremontohio.org The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time.
