1. Initial Comprehensive Study for Columbus Rail Yard Relocation ? RFP No.
07-0016
Scope of RFP
The Columbus Consolidated Government (the City) is soliciting competitive
sealed proposals from experienced, qualified firms to provide a comprehensive
study to characterize all relevant aspects and requirements to facilitate and
develop a project to relocate the existing rail yard on the east boundary of
Columbus, Georgia?s Central Business district (CBD). Such a relocation has
been contemplated a number of times during the last 100 years to fulfill a
variety of commercial and public revenue opportunities envisioned by the
downtown community and Consolidated Government, and to reduce several perceived
potential threats to public safety associated with continuing extensive rail
operations downtown. Projected growth of the next few years is likely to
increase the value of these opportunities. Similarly, such growth is likely to
increase the level of public risk if no relocation is selected.
