Site work and paving for a mixed-use development in Visalia, California. Completed plans call for site work for a sidewalk / parking lot; road / highway; and transportation facility.

The purpose is to receive proposals from qualified and experienced consultants for Engineering services for the Cross Valley Corridor Transit Prioritization project.

The consultant will be responsible for all technical and professional services necessary for project completion, including design that stays within grant funding, compliance with relevant codes and regulations, and preparation of plans, specifications, and estimates at multiple stages (30%, 60%, 90%, and 100%).
