Miami Beach seeks proposals for light rail system
The city of Miami Beach, Florida (USA), has launched a request for proposals (RFP) to develop a street car and light rail system through the PPP model.
The selected bidder will be responsible for the design, build, finance, operation and maintenance of a new street car and light rail system during the concession period.
The project comprises an off-wire or ‘wireless’ light rail/modern street car system, including vehicles and associated power, communications, signalization and other systems required for the functionality of the project, operational facilities, related civil infrastructure, including ‘curb-to-curb’ road reconstruction and related services.
This RFP comes after the city received, in August, an unsolicited proposal form Alstom to carry out the project. This proposal involves a 35 year concession of a new 14-mile transit system to connect downtown Miami to the Miami Beach Convention Center.
Interested parties must submit their proposals on or before 16 May 2016.
