Belmont Village Bicycle Improvement Project

The City of Belmont, California is undertaking the Belmont Village Bicycle Improvement Project to enhance bicycle safety and connectivity along key local corridors by installing Class II striped buffer bike lanes on Ralston Avenue, Sixth Avenue, Fifth Avenue, and Emmet Avenue, and a Class III bicycle boulevard on Hiller Street and O'Neill Avenue. These improvements are designed to address the lack of existing bicycle infrastructure on these busy urban streets, providing safer and more accessible routes for cyclists. The project is being executed under a categorical exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act, specifically referencing Sections 21083, 21110, 21108, 21152, and 21152.1 of the Public Resources Code, and relies on Article 19, Section 15301(c) to justify the environmental review exemption due to the minor nature of the infrastructure modifications on existing roadways. The work involves no new automobile lanes and is limited to pavement markings, signage, and related bicycle-specific enhancements consistent with state and local transportation standards. The project is managed by the City of Belmont’s Public Works Department, with Brian Nguyen serving as the primary contact as Assistant Civil Engineer. While the scope is clearly defined and the performance location is specified as Belmont with a ZIP code of 94002, there are no formal contract numbers, pricing details, or financial estimates provided in the available documentation. The material presented is identified as a forecast, not a solicitation or awarded contract, and lacks critical contractual elements such as FAR clauses, evaluation factors, payment instructions, inspection criteria, or contractor requirements. There is no mention of solicitation deadlines, submission protocols, contract type, acquisition funding codes, or socioeconomic set-asides. Additionally, no information is provided regarding the selection methodology, delivery schedule, bonding requirements, or technical specifications for construction materials and design standards. The absence of formal contract administration data, including COR/COTR designation, invoicing systems, or accountability codes, further suggests this is an early-stage project notice rather than a fully developed procurement document.
