Proposers shall respond to all sections to be considered.
Clark County has made this Request for Proposal subject to Washington State statute 39.34 RCW
Interlocal Cooperation Act. The proposer may opt to extend identical services and prices to

2. Background The NE/NW 179th Street corridor in Clark County serves as a primary east-west facility providing
access to I-5, rural neighborhoods, planned urban neighborhoods, and the Clark County
Amphitheater and Fairgrounds. 179th Street is classified as a principal arterial from Northwest 11th
Avenue to Northeast 72nd Avenue, intended to function to carry large volumes of traffic over long
distances. When fully built, this roadway is planned to have two travel lanes in each direction with
a center turn lane or median and bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The corridor is facing many
challenges. The existing topography creates significant hills and valleys that will need to be
adjusted to provide a modern arterial design. The 2,200-acre area surrounding the corridor was
recently released from urban holding, which restricted urban density development due to a lack of
| supporting infrastructure. In the future, this area is expected to experience significant development, creating a large amount of commercial and residential uses that must use 179th Street to access I- 5. This project proposes to continue road improvements to the NE 179th Street Corridor by connecting to the east end of the roundabout currently being constructed at the intersection of NE 179th Street and NE 29th Avenue and building out a full principal arterial roadway section with multiuse pathways on both sides of the road up to the vicinity of the recently improved intersection at 179th Street and NE 50th Avenue. There are currently multiple projects either in construction or advanced design between Delfel Road to the west of the I-5/179th Street Interchange and 50th Avenue. This project will complete the planned corridor improvements up to the vicinity of 50th Avenue. The reconstruction of the intersection at NE 179th Street and 50th Avenue is not part of this proposed project since a recent interim intersection improvement project was recently completed at that location. Current plans have this intersection being reconstructed in the future when it reaches capacity and funding can be obtained. | |
|---|---|
| 3. Scope of Project | Clark County is seeking select engineering services to support the on-time and on-budget delivery of this project, which involves in its entirety the design/engineering, real property acquisition, and environmental documentation and permitting necessary to prepare a biddable and constructible set of plans and specifications, followed by the bidding and construction of the project by the county and its contractor. The required consultant engineering services are generally described below in Section 1B. The scope of the full project is the re-construction of a county principal arterial roadway, which will widen and improve NE 179th Street between NE 29th Avenue and NE 50th Avenue. The project will not include the intersections at NE 29th Avenue and NE 50th Avenue, which are being completed under other county projects, but will tie into the work on either end. As noted, the roadway is classified as a principal arterial (Pr-4cb), with four travel lanes, center left-turn lane or median, and bike and pedestrian facilities. Consultants shall ensure that all proposed design concepts, traffic engineering analyses, and access configurations are consistent with the adopted 179th Street Circulation and Access Management Plan (July 2023). The plan establishes corridor-wide access management strategies including restricted access intersections, roundabout-based U turn circulation, driveway spacing, median treatments, and use of collector/local streets to limit direct driveway access to the principal arterial. Proposals must clearly describe how these requirements will be evaluated, incorporated, and documented during design, including identification of any anticipated constraints, necessary interim access strategies, or potential conflicts with the future roadway profile and circulation network described in the plan. Traffic engineering and analysis work will ensure conformance to the 179th Street Circulation and Access Management Plan and may include such work as signing, striping, pedestrian crossings with RRFB's / HAWK beacons and street lighting. The project will include one crossing (structure and walls) of a tributary of Mill Creek; the contract scope will include an alternatives analysis of the crossing to determine structure type (preference is a fish passage structure that will allow for NE 35th to connect to the new 179th profile). Wetlands and riparian area impacts are likely near this crossing; environmental work will be included in the consultant provided services. The profile of the roadway will be raised at the creek crossing and elsewhere to meet a 40-mph design standard. Multiple stormwater facilities will also be designed and constructed as part of this project. One will be adjacent to the creek crossing and a second stormwater facility has been proposed in the vicinity of the NE 179th Street/NE 50th Avenue intersection. This project involves complex environmental permitting and documentation, including coordination under NEPA with FHWA, preparation of a Biological Assessment (BA), and consultation with National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Recent updates to road runoff regulations-especially the incorporation of stormwater pollution from tire preservatives like 6PPD quinone-require |

This project involves complex environmental permitting and documentation, including coordination

National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Recent updates to road runoff regulations-especially

| 4. Project Funding | The project is funded with local County Road Funds, Traffic Impact Fees, Federal Funds (FHWA), and Real Estate Excise Tax funds. The project has a 0% FSBE goal set. In the absence of a mandatory goal, this project is subject to a voluntary ten percent (10%) Small Business Enterprise (SBE) requirement. As part of this RFP, the consultant's System for Award Management (SAM) registration is required. This is a qualifications-based selection process. Do not submit costs with the proposal. |
