RFQ - BNSF West Track Grade Separation Preliminary Engineering Study, PN 3-C-029-24 City of Olathe Description:The City of Olathe, Kansas, Public Works Department is requesting qualified design firms to submit qualifications for the preparation of study and/or conceptual design documents for the following project: The BNSF West Track Grade Separation Preliminary Engineering Study 88 trains per day utilize the western BNSF railroad tracks (Emporia Subdivision) in Olathe resulting in potential delays and unreliable travel time. This project will provide conceptual engineering to improve the reliability of east-west travel time in western Olathe by analyzing changes to the existing BNSF crossings between Woodland Road and Dennis Avenue, including a mixture of closures, grade separated crossings, traffic rerouting and the concept of raising the western BNSF railroad tracks between Woodland Road and Dennis Avenue. The first portion of this project will be to apply for a planning grant through the Railroad Crossing Elimination Program.
