Richmond Greenway Bridge Project – Implementation Plan

The City of Richmond is seeking a multidisciplinary consulting team to develop a comprehensive Implementation Plan for a new grade‑separated pedestrian and bicycle bridge that will close the existing gap in the Richmond Greenway. The plan must cover engineering design, railroad and utility coordination, environmental compliance, cost estimating, and a robust public‑outreach strategy that accounts for at least 40 % of the project budget. The selected consultant will work closely with Caltrans, Union Pacific Railroad, regional transit agencies, and community groups to deliver a 30 % conceptual design, cost estimate, and implementation strategy ready for grant funding. • Deliver a 30 % conceptual bridge design (structural, architectural, ADA‑compliant) and associated site plans. • Conduct geotechnical, traffic, and utility analyses, and prepare a planning‑level cost estimate ($30–$40 M for the bridge). • Lead extensive public outreach (workshops, pop‑ups, surveys) representing ≥ 40 % of the $790,693 budget, including $71,693 for Union Pacific coordination. • Produce a complete Implementation Plan (draft, revised, final) for City Council approval and Caltrans grant close‑out.
