Brush Creek Intersection Contruction Plans
Request for Proposals
Section I. Summary Introduction
Introduction
Gunnison County is seeking a qualified, experienced, and creative firm to provide consulting,
and design for an intersection at Brush Creek and Highway 135 near Crested Butte, Colorado.
Responses to this Request for Proposal (RFP) will be used to identify qualified consultants to
lead the transportation engineering design process from 60% design to construction plans overall
completion.
Background
The Gunnison Valley is amid a transition that will define its future. Population is growing,
recreation styles are evolving, and remote work is opening new possibilities for people who
would otherwise not be able to carve out a living in the remote Rocky Mountains.
This intersection has been a safety and maintenance concern, particularly in the winter, for over
20 years, and the increased traffic has exacerbated the need to resolve the problems. We have
had preliminary engineering done in the past to address the concerns, but had not found a viable
solution that was acceptable to the stakeholders until the most current preliminary design for a
new intersection.
The current consultant has taken public input and studied the alternatives, and with the
concurrence of CDOT, have narrowed the design options to a roundabout. The consultant has
produced the 60% design set and completed the FIR process with CDOT. The County has
secured local, state, and federal funds for the project. CDOT is involved through the Local
Agency office and process.
Gunnison County is committed to this project. This intersection will ultimately serve as an
intersection for motor vehicle traffic, but also as a connector for a trail from Crested Butte South
to the Town of Crested Butte, a transit stop/hub, a community entrance, access to a large
affordable housing development and a trail underpass providing a safe highway crossing.
Gunnison County has invested in the 60% planning and design components of the intersection,
trail, and housing development adjacent to this project, and we have budgeted for more
expenditures. In addition, we are completing property and ROW acquisition to support the
current design.
The alignment and design based on the public, stakeholder, engineering and staff process so far
is as follows:

Request for Proposals
Continued work should substantially align with the completed work that has CDOT approval.
Current work products will be provided to bidders upon request.
Section II. Project Scope
Project Description:
This project will move us from 60% design level to construction ready documents so that we are
prepared to expend grants to complete the project and support the community growth we are
experiencing. We expect the consultant to assist in drafting construction and construction
management RFQ scopes to ensure project success based on the construction plans produced.
The consultant should be prepared for all documents to pass the review of the FHWA and
CDOT. We are committed to pushing this project forward with deliverables in early 2026 and
construction substantially completed by the end of 2026. The current work products should be
used as the starting point.
The County envisions a project team of planners, engineers, estimators, surveyors, transit experts
and other professionals that will deliver a comprehensive document that will lead directly to the
final design and construction of the roundabout that includes trails, an underpass, and transit
stops.
