Pursuant to Section 3-05 of the New York City Procurement Policy Board Rules, the New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) intends to enter into sole source negotiations with JCDecaux Street Furniture New York, LLC (JCDecaux) for an agreement to install Real Time Passenger Information Displays at 1,446 bus stop shelters citywide for a term of 3125 calendar days. JCDecaux is the City’s coordinated street furniture franchisee and has the right to install bus stop shelters throughout New York City. The franchise agreement states that the bus stop shelters are at all times during the term of the agreement the property of JCDecaux and the city has no ownership interest with respect to the bus stop shelters. The New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) is seeking to display real time passenger information regarding New York City Transit bus routes on certain JCDecaux bus shelters throughout the City of New York. This requires installation of a digital panel on the side of the bus shelter, a text to speech button to provide audible information for the visually impaired and a communications feed to access the information.On February 2, 2026, ACCO’s Office determined, in accordance with Section 3-05(b) of the Procurement Policy Board Rules, that JCDecaux Street Furniture New York LLC, is the only entity authorized to own and operate bus shelters on the City’s public right-of-way. Therefore, JCDecaux is the sole source provider of the RTPI displays for the bus stop shelters.Any firm that believes it is qualified to provide these products is invited to do so by responding to the RFI EPIN: 84127Y0898 in PASSPort no later than October 29, 2026, by 2:00 pm.  Any questions should be directed to the authorized agency contact, Kathy Cornwall-Wilson (kcornwallwilson@dot.nyc.gov), at 212-839-9276.
