Tactile Warning Surface Installation

The contract involves the installation of detectable warning surfaces at platform edges and crosswalks to ensure compliance with ADA standards for individuals who are visually impaired. These surfaces must be properly designed and installed to provide tactile feedback, guiding safely through high-risk areas while meeting federal accessibility guidelines. The work is being procured as a subcontract under the NAICS code 238990 and is managed by Metra in Illinois, with the solicitation posted on July 20, 2026, and responses required by August 24, 2026. All installations must align with technical specifications for durability, contrast, and placement to ensure long-term effectiveness and safety. The project requires qualified contractors to deliver and install detectable warning surfaces across multiple Metra locations, with work expected to comply strictly with ADA requirements. Contractors must be prepared to coordinate existing infrastructure, conduct site assessments, and ensure all materials meet industry and regulatory benchmarks. Although specific locations and quantities are not detailed, performance is expected throughout Metra’s service area in Illinois. The subcontract nature of this opportunity suggests it may be part of a larger infrastructure initiative, and bidders should be ready to provide evidence of prior experience with tactile surface installations and ADA compliance projects.
