Washingtonian Blvd Pedestrian Safety Improvements

The City of Gaithersburg is seeking bids to furnish, install, and fully activate a set of rectangular rapid flashing beacons (RRFBs) at seven crosswalks along Washingtonian Boulevard. The project aims to improve pedestrian safety in the area. The City does not have in-house capabilities for the acquisition and installation of flashing beacons, and this project was established with a one-time appropriation of funding for the Washingtonian Boulevard corridor in Fiscal Year 2026. • The project involves installing RRFBs at seven crosswalks along both the eastbound and westbound roadways of Washingtonian Boulevard. • The City is seeking bids from qualified contractors to perform the work. • A pre-bid conference was held on February 10, 2026, to provide more information about the project. • All questions regarding the project must be submitted through email to [email protected].
