RFP: Professional Services for Eastside Parallel Trail

1 RFP Overview

1.1 Purpose of RFP

This Request for Proposals (“RFP”) is issued by the City of Half Moon Bay (“City”). The City seeks

Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from entities ("Proposer(s)") with demonstrated

experience and qualifications in providing Preliminary Engineer, Design, and Environmental

support for specific construction projects occurring within California Department of

Transportation (Caltrans) right-of-ways such as those required in this RFP. The City desires to

enter into an agreement for one (1) year with the option for two (2) one-year renewals upon

satisfactory performance.

1.2 Project Description

The Eastside Parallel Trail Segment 2 project proposes improvements to extend a 12 ft multi-

modal trail on the east side of California State Highway 1 (Highway 1) in the City of Half Moon

Bay between the intersections at Ruisseau Francais Avenue and Spindrift Way. The proposed

project will connect to the existing Naomi Patridge Trail to the north and the future Hwy 1

North Safety & Operations trail to the south, a total distance approximately 2,100 linear feet.

The project will also include a new approximately 200 ft bridge spanning over Frenchmans

Creek to complete the new trail. Improvements will include crossing treatments at three

vehicle intersections at Russeau Francais Avenue, Frenchmans Creek Road, and Spindrift

Way.

At the Ruisseau Francais intersection, additional improvements are desired to enhance the

existing crosswalks, add a southern crossing location and improve connectivity to the existing

trail on the west side of the highway. Anticipated improvements also include new curb gutter

and sidewalk, curb ramps, drainage improvements, signage, and any required signal

reconfiguration. Along the west side of the intersection, a new retaining wall is also

necessary to repair an existing failed wood retaining wall supporting the existing trail

segment. Refer to Attachment 1 below for an illustrative concept plan for the proposed

project. The project will be designed and constructed in one phase.

The scope of professional services requested, as further detailed below, includes the

complete planning, environmental study and design work needed to permit and construct

the project (excluding construction engineering, related inspections and material testing),

which is anticipated to follow the Caltrans DEER project delivery/permit process.

The project team will be required to prepare supporting documents needed for

oversight/approval via the Office of Special Funded Projects (OSFP), including Advance

Planning Study (APS) package and Structure Type Selection Report for the bridge, as well as

all necessary supporting investigation and studies such as Foundation Report and Hydraulics

Report, in accordance with Caltrans requirements.

The scope of work also includes the preparation of all environmental studies and documents

for both CEQA determination and NEPA support, as well as a Coastal Development Permit as

part of the entitlement process with the City of Half Moon Bay.
