The City of Raleigh’s Planning and Development Department invites qualified design firms, or teams of firms, to submit their qualifications for developing a detailed concept plan, a streetscape standard plan, and implementation strategy for a new multi-modal facility, the Chavis-Dix Strollway (the “Strollway”), for the following professional services: ·        Landscape Architecture ·        Planning and Urban Design ·        Historical and Cultural Planning ·        Public Engagement and Outreach ·        Civil Engineering ·        Land Surveying ·        Structural Engineering ·        Cost Estimating ·        Urban Forestry The project will connect two prominent culturally and historically significant Raleigh Parks —the John Chavis Memorial Park and Dorothea Dix Park—and will be a companion project to the South Park Heritage Trail (SPHT), an urban cultural trail currently under design and development. The Strollway will be a west-east connection focused primarily along South Street. It aims to celebrate Raleigh’s rich cultural history, creating a multi-modal pathway and public spaces through diverse communities and sites in the City’s southeast and southwest sides of downtown, including Historic Fourth Ward, Heritage Park, the Downtown Arts & Entertainment District, Shaw University, and East Raleigh-South Park.
