The City of Ontario is seeking a qualified engineering firm to develop complete design documents (plans, specifications, and cost estimate) for the Archibald Avenue at‑grade railway crossing safety improvement project. The work includes surveys, environmental clearances, utility and railroad coordination, traffic and pedestrian studies, multiple design phases (30‑%, 60‑%, 90‑%, and 100‑% plans), and construction support. The effort is funded by a $642,000 Federal Section 130 Preliminary Engineering supplement, with a total project estimate of $6.78 million. Key responsibilities are to deliver design deliverables on a schedule that runs through December 2029 and to meet prevailing‑wage, Buy‑America, and other statutory requirements.
• Prepare and submit phased design packages (30‑%, 60‑%, 90‑%, 100‑% plans) with specifications and cost estimates.
• Conduct surveys, traffic and pedestrian studies, and obtain all required environmental and permitting approvals.
• Coordinate with Union Pacific Railroad, Caltrans, CPUC, utilities, and the City throughout design and construction phases.
• Provide monthly progress reports, attend mandatory coordination meetings, and support the construction phase with as‑built drawings and clarifications.
