AI Contract Overview

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is conducting an evaluation of pedestrian-related Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies to assess their effectiveness in reducing pedestrian fatalities, injuries, and conflicts as part of its Pedestrian Safety Engineering and ITS-Based Countermeasures Program. Cooperative agreements have been awarded to three cities in Nevada, Florida, and California to implement and demonstrate a comprehensive pedestrian safety program using various ITS-based countermeasures. The FHWA is seeking information from manufacturers of pedestrian ITS technologies—such as pedestrian detectors, information systems (including talking signs and audible signals), motorist information systems (like in-pavement lighting), and enforcement systems (such as variable speed limits)—to support these metropolitan demonstration projects. Manufacturers are requested to provide five sets of informational materials, including brochures, manuals, and videos, to assist the FHWA and participating metropolitan areas in evaluating available technologies. This solicitation is solely a request for information and does not represent a procurement or endorsement of any products or manufacturers. Submissions must be mailed by overnight service by April 16, 2002, to the FHWA office in Washington, DC, specifically addressed to Mr. Leverson Boodlal. The FHWA will review submissions for relevance but emphasizes that this notice is informational and does not imply intent to purchase.

Full Description

This is not a solicitation notice of intent to procure. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is in the process of evaluating the effectiveness of various pedestrian related Intelligent Transportation System-based traffic control technologies for reducing pedestrian fatalities and injuries as part of its Pedestrian Safety Engineering and ITS-Based Countermeasures Program. The FHWA recently awarded cooperative agreements to three cities in Nevada, Florida, and California to demonstrate and evaluate the effectiveness of a comprehensive pedestrian safety engineering and Intelligent Transportation System-based countermeasures program for reducing the pedestrian fatalities, injuries, conflicts and other surrogate measures. The objective of this special announcement is to notify and inform manufacturers of pedestrian ITS-based technologies about the project and obtain from them information on their products. This information should be in the form of brochures, manuals, videos, etc. that can be provided to the metropolitan areas with whom FHWA is working with. Examples of the ITS technologies include pedestrian detectors (infrared, etc.), pedestrian information systems (talking signs, illuminated push buttons, audible signals, count-down signals, etc), motorist information (in-pavement lighting, smart overhead lighting, etc.) and enforcement systems (variable speed limit, speed controls, etc.). The FHWA reserves the right to review the submitted information for relevance to the project. FHWA is interested in getting five (5) sets of brochures, manuals, and other related materials for each pedestrian ITS-based technology. This information is for general use only, and must not be taken as an endorsement of product or manufacturer. In addition this request for information must no be taken as an intent to procure. Please mail the materials to: FHWA, 400 Seventh ST, SW, HSA-20 Rm: 3407 Washington, DC 20590 Attn: Mr. Leverson Boodlal It is requested that these items should be submitted to FHWA by April 16, 2002 and sent by overnight mail.
