Description

Introduction

The Jacksonville Urban Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (JUMPO) is the regional transportation planning organization for the Jacksonville, North Carolina metropolitan area. The City of Jacksonville is designated as the Lead Planning Agency for JUMPO and all contracts are executed through them on behalf of JUMPO. JUMPO consists of representatives from the City of Jacksonville, Town of Swansboro, Town of Holly Ridge, Town of Richlands, Town of North Topsail Beach, Onslow County, the North Carolina Department of Transportation, and area military bases.

JUMPO is seeking Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to evaluate the US 17 (Marine Blvd) corridor between US 258 (Richlands Highway) and Old Bridge Street for a potential road diet and reconfiguration of the US 17/258 Intersection.

This project is funded in part with federal and state funds. As such, interested Firms, at the time of submitting this proposal, must be prequalified by North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) to perform this work under one of the following work codes:

26 – Capacity Analysis – Intersections and Corridors
309 – Traffic Data Collection

Scope of Services

JUMPO is interested in evaluating the US 17 (Marine Blvd) corridor from US 258 (Richlands Highway) to Old Bridge Street to determine if it warrants a road diet. The existing roadway is seven lanes, including a two-way left-turn lane. The road width varies and significantly reduces near Georgetown Road. Another item that should also be evaluated is the southbound lane of Marine Blvd at US 258 (Richlands Highway). The existing single lane experiences congestion during peak hours. The Firm will also consider options for re-configure this intersection within the existing road width. Refer to Attachment A which shows a rough concept.

All work done in conjunction with this RFQ shall be done utilizing NCDOT specifications. JUMPO is seeking a Firm to perform the evaluation and to suggest recommendation(s).

Work includes but is not limited to analyzing the intersections during the weekday AM and PM peak hours for existing (2021), traffic with the existing cross-section, existing (2021) traffic with modified cross-section and future (2045) traffic with modified cross-section. Prepare a Traffic Impact Assessment documenting the findings with graphical aides and an appendix of supporting data. Coordinate with NCDOT and City as needed.

The City will provide 13-hour counts for all three intersections within this corridor: Marine Blvd/US 258 (Richlands Highway), Marine Blvd/Georgetown Road; and Marine Blvd/Old Bridge Street. The City will also provide the signal plans for all three intersections and can field verify the widths of the lanes.
