Florida State University is seeking a qualified, licensed, and experienced landscape contractor under solicitation ITB-6859-8 to provide comprehensive grounds maintenance for the Tennessee Street and Stadium Drive medians located adjacent to and within the FSU Tallahassee main campus. The scope of work includes turf management, weed control, debris removal, and tree sucker and basal growth management. This solicitation was posted on October 12, 2026, with a response deadline of November 12, 2026, at 3:00 PM EST. Due to the high volume of traffic on these state and municipal thoroughfares, the contractor must be fully certified and equipped to execute Temporary Traffic Control (TTC) and Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) operations in strict compliance with Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) standards. Because FSU internal personnel lack the necessary certifications and heavy-traffic equipment, the selected vendor is solely responsible for all traffic safety and control measures. The primary point of contact for this effort is Angelena K. Turvaville.
