Description
This solicitation seeks a qualified firm to conduct comprehensive data‑collection, analysis, stakeholder engagement, and prioritization for the modernization of 363 service interchanges within the Metropolitan Council’s planning area. The effort focuses on identifying existing deficiencies, evaluating improvement options, and delivering actionable recommendations to guide future capital investment decisions. The work is primarily consultative and analytical rather than design‑heavy, requiring expertise in transportation planning, traffic engineering, and public outreach.
• Collect and synthesize traffic, safety, and operational data for each interchange.
• Engage local agencies, transit operators, and the public to gather feedback on interchange performance and improvement needs.
• Develop a prioritized list of modernization projects with supporting justification and cost‑benefit analysis.
• Deliver a final report and presentation to the Council and its partners outlining findings and recommendations.
