Request for Qualifications - Consultant Services  
 
 Bicycle Master Plan
Ada County Highway District, Boise, Idaho
Submittal Deadline:  December 8, 2006

Introduction
Ada County Highway District (ACHD) is requesting qualifications for the
purpose of selecting a firm to prepare a Master Plan for bicycle
facilities in the public right-of-way in Ada County, including the
cities of Boise, Eagle, Garden City, Kuna, Meridian, Star and the
unincorporated areas of the county.

Background
The project will develop a new Bicycle Master Plan (BMP) and supporting
documents for public roadway right-of-way in Ada County serving the
cities of Boise, Eagle, Garden City, Kuna, Meridian, Star and the
unincorporated areas of Ada County.  The BMP will provide a
comprehensive strategy to enhance and expand the bicycle facilities with
the goal of creating connectivity to areas of the county where bike
lanes, routes and paths exist in isolation or are absent.  The strategy
will bring together the successful past efforts in the planning, design
and implementation of bicycle facilities and augment and expand this
with new information, analysis and public involvement to create a more
comprehensive approach to bikeway system development in Ada County. The
BMP will identify necessary standards for use in enhancing the safety of
users throughout the county.

Deadlines
Responses must be submitted via mail or in person on or before 2:00 pm.,
Mountain Time, on Friday, December 8, 2006 (electronic submissions will
not be accepted).
