7th Street Fiber Transportation Enhancement Design-Bid-Build-REBID - ST89340660

The City of Phoenix is seeking a qualified contractor to provide construction services for the project listed
below.

The City of Phoenix is proposing the installation of 3.9 miles of fiber optic infrastructure and associated
Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) devices along Deer Valley Road, from 7th Avenue to 7th Street, and
along 7th Street, from Deer Valley Road to Paradise Lane. The 7th Street Fiber Transportation Enhancement
Project – Phase 1 will extend the City’s real-time transportation management capability along key roadway
corridors in the City and provide a Layer 3 switch to serve as a fiber node facility in the northern part of the
City. This enables more reliable network routing for City ITS devices in the area, consistent with the
applications being submitted in September 2019 for funding through the Maricopa Association of
Governments System Management and Operations program.

The 7th Street project begins by connecting to the existing City fiber north of the intersection of 7th Avenue
and Deer Valley Road. The project will provide infrastructure for the City of Phoenix to connect to the traffic
signal at 7th Avenue and Deer Valley Road and travel east along Deer Valley Road using existing conduit
to connect to a new pull box halfway between Central Avenue and 7th Street that will create a new
connection point along existing City conduit infrastructure. New conduit infrastructure will be installed east
from that new pull box to the intersection of 7th Street and Deer Valley Road. New cabinet will be installed
near the northwest corner of the 7th Street and Deer Valley Road intersection and provide infrastructure
for a fiber connection to the traffic signal in the southwest corner. New conduit and fiber infrastructure will
travel south along 7th Street and to cross the State Route 101L (commonly referred to as Loop 101)
freeway. The conduit and fiber infrastructure (Cable and pull boxes) will continue south along 7th Street to
provide a node connection (pull box #9) to each of the traffic signals along the corridor ending at the traffic
signal at the 7th Street and Paradise Lane.

This project will utilize federal funds and is subject to the requirements of 49 Code of Federal Regulations
Part 26 and the U.S. Department of Transportation DBE Program.
