The city of Plano is offering an $8.4 million contract to vendors to replace and upgrade its vehicle detection systems.
According to a competitive sealed proposal (CSP), the city is replacing systems at 278 signalized intersections over the span of three contract renewal periods.
The CSP includes multiple project specifications, including a radar vehicle detection system (RVDS), multi-sensor detection system (MSDS) and video imaging vehicle detection system.
The RVDS should include stop bar radar vehicle detection and reporting capabilities for a minimum of 10 lanes, six feet and 25 vehicles.
The MSDS must have a central control unit that can support up to four hybrid camera/radar sensors and can communicate with traffic signal controllers through a synchronous data link control connection. The MSDS should be at least 98 percent accurate in fair weather, detect vehicles in real time in up to 32 detection zones, differentiate between bicycles and motorized vehicles, and trigger outputs that allow controllers to implement special bicycle timing.
More detailed information about CSP No. 2024-0653-B, including all submission requirements and requests, can be found online. A virtual, non-mandatory pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for 2 p.m. March 5. Questions regarding this CSP are due by 2 p.m. March 12. The due date for submissions is 2 p.m. April 7. Lincoln Thompson is the point of contact for this solicitation.
