The City of Fresno’s Department of Transportation (Fresno Area Express) is seeking qualified architectural and engineering consultants to provide planning, community‑engagement, and preliminary design services for the “Reconnecting Communities” project. The effort centers on a new pedestrian bridge over State Route 99 linking Parkway Drive to Roeding Park, plus associated landing‑area improvements, bus‑stop enhancements, lighting, urban greening, and public‑art concepts. The consultant will also produce an opinion of probable cost and a “Project Manual/Bridging Documents” package to guide later construction phases. • Conduct community‑participation planning, run focus groups, and serve on Technical and Stakeholder Advisory Groups. • Perform bridge‑landing feasibility analysis, develop conceptual designs for lighting, landscaping, art, wayfinding, and bus‑stop amenities. • Deliver a cost‑estimate memorandum, schedule, and final design‑concept package within a 12‑month period.
