The Mid-America Regional Council (MARC) seeks consulting services to complete the 47th Place Complete Streets Planning project for the City of Westwood, Kansas. The Planning Sustainable Places program provides local governments with financial support to advance detailed local planning and project development activities.

The focus of this request for proposals (RFP) is to create a Sustainable Places Plan that addresses the following key priorities for the City of Westwood, Kansas:

• Identify how and by whom the project area is currently being used (i.e. Who are the trip generators? What are the destinations? Who are the users?)
• Evaluate possible applications of Complete Streets principles in the project area and compatibility with private development plans (the project area includes offices/employers and retail and residential uses)
• Test concepts against safety challenges in the project area (e.g. sight issues, speed issues, pedestrian crossings, parking lot connections, etc.)

MARC will host a pre-proposal meeting for all interested consultant teams to ask questions and gain clarity around any elements or requirements of this RFP.

When: Thursday, January 14, 2021, 1:00 pm.
