Pre-RFPTransportationDetected Jun 16, 2026

In the June 16, 2026 marketing update, RTD notes that staff are actively planning upcoming initiatives including a Student Ride Free Program and a refresh of the Vamos Mobility App in coordination with the San Joaquin Council of Governments and regional partners. The Student Ride Free Program links to broader efforts to grow ridership and align with climate and equity funding, and is supported by LCTOP in the FY27 budget narrative. The Vamos app refresh suggests updates to trip planning, mobility integration, or user experience for riders across the region.These efforts are at the planning stage with no vendors yet named for the program design or app work, indicating open space for technology and consulting providers. Companies offering fare policy consulting, ridership modeling, marketing, mobile app development, regional mobility platforms, and customer engagement tools can engage with RTD and SJCOG now to shape program design, data needs, communications, and technology requirements before formal procurement documents are drafted.

RTD previously ran student fare‑free partnerships with Stockton Unified School District and San Joaquin County Office of Education; FY27 budget anticipates a new pilot structure funded with LCTOP.

Grant Funding

The Town of Juno Beach secured Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) funding to develop a Safety Action Plan under its Vision Zero effort. The plan will use crash data, roadway analysis, and community input to identify safety concerns and prioritize street improvements. A public meeting was set for August 20, 2026, and the Town's consultant will host a virtual session at the same time. This is a grant-funded planning project, and the next sales conversation is with the project team on analysis, engagement, and implementation support.

Public Updates

CTDOT held a virtual public information meeting on the replacement of Bridge No. 01214 carrying Schoolhouse Hill Road over I-84 in Newtown. The project will replace the superstructure and rehabilitate the substructure to extend service life and keep the crossing safe. Construction is expected to start in spring 2029, depending on funding, right-of-way acquisition, and permits. The estimated cost is $11 million, so this is a useful lead for bridge design, construction, and support services tied to a future funded project.

Public Updates

INDOT proposed deleting outdated section 104.04(a) on special detours and temporary runarounds. The stated goal is to remove obsolete payment language and clarify contract handling for projects with maintenance of traffic pay items, including 713-B-327. This is specification cleanup rather than a new procurement, but it affects how future road contracts are written.
