Description
The City of Wausau and the Wausau Area Transit System are seeking proposals for a facilities condition assessment and feasibility study. The goal is to determine whether the existing transit garage can support future needs and be modernized to accommodate a battery-electric fleet. The project includes analyzing the existing facility, surveying alternate sites, and considering environmental and practical factors. The selected contractor will need to provide a comprehensive assessment and recommendations for modernization or construction of a new facility.
• The existing facility serves 25 full-sized buses, 5 paratransit buses, and space for all Metro Ride office and administrative staff.
• The study should consider the cost of modernizing the existing facility versus investing in a new facility.
• The project requires an analysis of environmental and practical factors, such as electrical infrastructure availability.
• The contractor will need to provide a pricing proposal worksheet as part of their bid.
