DESCRIPTION

The government authority in North Carolina is seeking a consultant team to create a long-range, multi-modal master plan for the NC-54 Corridor through Research Triangle Park (RTP). The project's objective is to develop a comprehensive vision for the corridor, integrating major regional investments such as the Triangle Mobility Hub, a prospective passenger rail station, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), and a segment of the Triangle Bikeway.

The deliverables include a multi-modal corridor plan that ensures future development and redevelopment will provide safe and efficient transportation options for all modes. The plan will focus on transforming auto-oriented suburban arterials into complete streets serving mixed-use development and innovation districts, and will incorporate facilities for transit, bicycles, and pedestrians.

Consultants will be required to provide monthly invoices and progress reports, coordinate closely with Triangle West agency Project Managers through regular meetings (either virtually or in person), and demonstrate experience with implementing regional mobility hubs and managing right-of-way allocation across multiple infrastructure investments. The contract term is one year.
