RFP/RFQ Title
E Grande Boulevard, Old Omen Road, and Toll 49 Route Study
Posting Date
09/08/2025
RFP/RFQ Description
The objective of this RFQ is to select a qualified firm or team to perform planning, analyses, and conceptual engineering to recommend optimal vertical and horizontal routes for the extension of East Grande Boulevard and Old Omen Road in relation to the proposed Toll 49 segment 6 alternatives. This
study will support the planning efforts currently underway.
The consultant will work with representatives of the City of Tyler, Smith County, Northeast Texas Regional Mobility Authority (NET RMA), and TxDOT to create a holistic vision for how these street extensions can coexist. The plan will have the government officials agree on the general routes for the
proposed streets, where the right-of-way would cross, and how any vertical separation could be configured.
The recommendations are intended to support NET RMA’s efforts to refine alternatives for public review. The next round of public meetings for Toll 49 Segment 6 is anticipated to be held in mid-2026.
