If the task order for NEPA work for BRT is completed and closed, as determined by Metro, prior to Metro’s release of a solicitation for final design for BRT, the consultant(s) who completed the preliminary design/NEPA work would be eligible for
consideration for the final design contract (and similarly for Urban Circulator). The timeline for releasing a final design solicitation shall be in Metro’s sole discretion. Nothing herein shall be construed as to require Metro to expedite contract closeout or delay the release of a solicitation for final design; however, Metro anticipates completion of the preliminary design/NEPA task order prior to releasing future final design solicitations.
