The Northwest Louisiana Council of Governments (NLCOG) requests qualified consultants to develop a Regional Active Transportation Plan for the Northwest Louisiana Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). This plan will become the staged improvement plan for nonmotorized projects to be included as an amendment to the current Metropolitan Transportation Plan.

The short-listed Consultant/Teams may be required to make formal presentations to the MPO prior to final selection. Each firm that is a member of a team will be required to present how they plan to address their portion of the project. The number of teams recommended to be placed on the Short List is dependent upon the number of qualified submissions received.
