Parkland County - Negotiated Request for Proposal - Design-Build Services for Wabamun Multi-Use Trail Connection

Parkland County is seeking qualified proponents to submit proposals for the design and build of a Multi-Use Trail Connection in the Hamlet of Wabamun, aimed at creating a safe, continuous, and accessible active transportation link between Wabamun Provincial Park and Waterfront Park. Currently, non-motorized users face significant safety challenges due to gaps in infrastructure along 50 Street, where dedicated pathways are limited or fragmented. The project will address these deficiencies by establishing a dedicated trail corridor that supports pedestrians, cyclists, and mobility device users, while enhancing community connectivity, promoting healthy lifestyles, and boosting tourism in a region that serves both residents and visitors accessing Wabamun Lake and surrounding amenities. As a rural municipality west of Edmonton with over 30,000 residents and extensive land area, Parkland County is committed to sustainable transportation and long-term community development through this initiative. Proposals must be submitted in response to Solicitation Number AB-2026-05421, with a deadline of August 20, 2026. Applicants are required to meet safety prequalification standards such as COR, SECOR, TLC, or COREL and provide a Consent of Surety as part of their submission. The procurement is led by Cami Sutherland, Procurement Specialist at Parkland County, and all inquiries should be directed to the provided contact information. The project falls under a negotiated RFP process, with detailed deliverables outlined in Appendix A of the RFP Particulars, and is intended to align with the County’s strategic goals for active transportation infrastructure, accessibility, and regional growth. The place of performance is within Parkland County, Alberta, and the solicitation is accessible through the Alberta Purchasing Connection website.
