Rapid City Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan Request for Proposals

May 21, 2024

The City of Rapid City is seeking proposals from qualified consultants to complete the Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan. In 2020, the City of Rapid City adopted the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan (Bike/Ped Plan). While the Bike/Ped Plan provided a list of recommended improvements throughout the Metropolitan Planning Area, it did not provide the emphasis on safety required to serve as a Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan (SS4A Plan). The City applied for and was awarded a Planning Grant to produce a SS4A Plan in 2023.

The intent of this project is to build upon the foundation created by the Bike/Ped Plan to create a plan to reduce or eliminate roadway fatalities and serious injuries in Rapid City for all roadway users, and provide a list of prioritized projects for future SS4A Implementation. The purpose of the SS4A program is to improve roadway safety by significantly reducing or eliminating roadway fatalities and serious injuries through safety action plan development and implementation focused on all users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, public transportation users, motorists, personal conveyance and micromobility users, and commercial vehicle operators. 

The Request for Proposals is available on www.publicpurchase.com, www.rcgov.org, and www.rapidcityareampo.org. For questions or additional information, contact Kip Harrington, Long Range Planning Manager at (605) 394-4120 or kip.harrington@rcgov.org.
