Safe Route to Schools

The City (or municipality) issued an Invitation for Bid to improve safety for schoolchildren traveling to and from school sites. The solicitation seeks a contractor to perform construction-related work—likely including sidewalk installation, crosswalk creation, signage, and related site improvements—to create safer routes. Two firms submitted bids, with the lower bid at roughly $42,897. The project appears to be a small‑scale, local infrastructure effort, under $50 K, with no detailed scope or performance schedule disclosed in the excerpt.
