Overview

Summary

The City of Cayce is seeking a qualified consultant to update and expand the existing Local Road Safety Plan to include all required Safe Streets for All (SS4A) action plan City of Cayce, thus enabling the City of Cayce to apply for SS4A implementation grant funding. The Consultant will develop an Action Plan using inclusive and representative processes to pursue a comprehensive approach to advancing equity. This update/expansion will also include any newly identified safety projects, including projects identified during stakeholder outreach.

It is the intent of the City of Cayce to enter into an agreement with one consulting company to exclusively provide the professional services as described herein for a one-time service. However, the City of Cayce reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to terminate this RFP process or negotiations with a selected company and begin a new RFP process, or to contract with more than one firm, if needed to perform all of the services. Nothing herein, or in the process, shall be construed as having obligated the City of Cayce to pay for any expenses incurred by respondents to this RFP, or to the selected company prior to City of Cayce Council approval of an Agreement.

Background

The City of Cayce is seeking submittals from a consultant(s) to develop a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan (Action Plan). The City of Cayce was awarded a grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) through the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant program. This grant will support the City of Cayce 's efforts to develop an Action Plan.

The purpose of the Action Plan is to improve roadway safety by significantly reducing roadway fatalities and serious injuries through action plan development and implementation focused on all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and micromobility users. The Action Plan aims to improve roadway safety by developing a comprehensive action plan based on a Safe System Approach and implementing projects and strategies that significantly reduce transportation-related fatalities and serious injury accidents for all road users.

The Action Plan will undertake a robust safety investigation on jurisdictional roadways. This will be done through a more in-depth look at location-based crash data, causal factors, and complete streets principles to identify broad engineering, education, and enforcement strategies that consider local context. Efforts should guide in shaping future implementation projects through SS4A, or other applicable federal or state transportation related funding programs that can contribute to meeting performance measures at the state and federal levels.

The Action Plan will identify a comprehensive set of projects and strategies, that are data driven, and incorporate best practices, stakeholder input, and equity, to address safety problems. Innovative strategies and technologies will be molded to the needs of the City of Cayce, promoting safety and equity. The identified strategies will be those with the greatest potential to reduce fatal and serious injury crashes and reduce crash rates on City of Cayce roads.

The Action Plan will consider other factors in addition to safety, including equitable investment in the safety needs of underserved communities. As part of this effort, a public involvement process that focuses on reaching underserved, underrepresented, and vulnerable populations will be undertaken to ensure inclusion and equity for all persons within the City of Cayce. Within the planned output are progress and transparency methods that measure progress over time after the Action Plan is completed.

The Action Plan will demonstrate engagement with a variety of public and private stakeholders and seek to adopt strategies to promote safety, employ low-cost, high-impact strategies that can improve safety, ensure equitable investment in the safety needs of underserved communities, including rural communities and incorporate evidence-based projects and strategies.

Identification of action items will comply with USDOT's required City of Cayce including goal setting, safety analysis, public engagement, equity analysis, policy and process proposals, and progress reporting.

Although the City of Cayce have received SS4A funding, our Safety Action Plan will be inclusive of all Lexington County and will be a collaboration with all jurisdictions.
