From the meeting
Following an October 6, 2026 preapplication meeting, Northfield was cleared to submit a full Better Connections application. The proposed project would examine links among a future Amtrak station, Norwich University, downtown, housing, sidewalks, pedestrian improvements, transit, and other multimodal needs. The full application is due October 30.
This is a grant-led planning effort, so vendors with transportation planning, access, and multimodal design capabilities may have follow-on opportunities if the application is funded.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
