Pre-Advertisement Notice for Barricade Deployment

The City of Atlanta, on behalf of the Department of Transportation, will shortly undergo a Multi-Step Sealed Bid process comprised of a prequalification phase as the initial step, followed by an Invitation for
Bid (IFB), towards the procurement intended to support the continued safe and timely barricade deployment and traffic-control services for the Atlanta Streets Alive event series. The work
includes installation, monitoring, adjustment, and removal of barricades, cones, road-closure
signage, and related traffic-control devices for monthly Sunday events along one to four miles of
City streets. Interested vendors during the prequalification phase should be prepared to show
experience with event-based traffic-control operations, route-specific planning, staffing,
MUTCD-compliant equipment, and coordination with ATLDOT, MOSE requirements, and law enforcement.
Vendors should also be able to provide a dedicated project coordinator, pre-event planning support,
onsite response personnel, and post-event reporting. The City's expectation is that the selected
vendor ensures streets are closed and reopened safely, equipment remains properly placed and
visible throughout the event, and deployment/removal occurs within the approved permit windows. The
selected vendor must prioritize pedestrian safety, responsiveness to ATLDOT direction, and accurate
documentation after each event. Vendors capable of providing barricades, traffic cones, warning
devices, road-closure and detour signs, trained deployment crews, event-day monitoring, breakdown
services, and post-event summaries for recurring Atlanta Streets Alive events are encouraged to
prepare for this upcoming solicitation process. A Pre-Solicitation Conference will be noticed and
then held to provide more details and address questions.
