Description

The Metropolitan Council is seeking qualified vendors to supply, deliver, and install regular‑route transit shelters for its bus network across the Twin Cities region. The solicitation covers the full lifecycle of the shelters – from design and manufacturing to final on‑site installation and any required accessories such as lighting, signage, and benches. Bidders must respond to a detailed set of specifications contained in the full bid package and adhere to the established schedule for pre‑bid briefing, question submission, and final bid delivery. • Scope includes design, fabrication, delivery, and installation of prefabricated metal shelters for multiple bus routes. • Procurement is conducted via an Invitation for Bid (IFB) with a firm deadline of April 29, 2026 2:00 PM (CT). • A virtual pre‑bid meeting is scheduled for April 1, 2026; participation is optional but recommended for clarification of technical requirements.

Budget estimate

$750,000 – $2,100,000

Based on typical transit shelter costs ranging from $15,000 to $30,000 per unit (including design, fabrication, delivery, and installation), and assuming the Council will procure roughly 50‑70 shelters across its network, the total contract value is likely between $750,000 and $2,100,000. This estimate accounts for variations in shelter size, accessory packages (lighting, signage), and geographic dispersion of installation sites.
