Consultant Selection – South Edgeware Road Signal Design, PXO Design, and Street Lighting Design

The City of St. Thomas is soliciting qualified consultants to provide electrical design services and tender document preparation for the replacement of traffic signals at the intersection of South Edgeware Road and First Ave, along with the design of new street lighting along South Edgeware Road from Waterworks Park to Harper Road. This engagement is split into two distinct tasks: the first covers the full scope of engineering design for both traffic signals and street lighting systems, while the second involves quality assurance and construction inspection services during the implementation phase scheduled for 2027 and 2028. The city's internal staff will handle complementary infrastructure work including the replacement of sanitary, storm, and watermains, roadway resurfacing, sidewalk upgrades, and active transportation improvements, ensuring coordinated planning and execution across all project elements. The solicitation, identified as BT-2026-049, was posted on May 20, 2026, with proposals due by June 1, 2026. It is classified under NAICS code 541330 for engineering services and is issued by the City of St. Thomas under the Government of Canada’s procurement framework. Interested parties must submit their bids through the Canada Buys platform, with all inquiries directed to Aaron Dooling, the Contracting Authority, via email or phone. The project requires specialized expertise in traffic signal systems and street lighting design, with selection based on technical capability, experience, and proposed methodology to ensure alignment with municipal standards and future infrastructure integration.
