All parties interested in responding to potential procurements related to this Program should plan to attend. The meeting is open to the public; no fee is required.
At the forum, FDOT will provide a briefing on the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Track 2 Application for the Tampa-Orlando-Miami Corridor. Implementation schedules and procurement opportunities will be described, understanding that all aspects of the Florida High Speed Rail Program are fully dependent on successful receipt of federal funds.
FDOT is also seeking input from prospective proposers. On December 2, 3 and 4 (if necessary), individual meetings between prospective proposing entities or teams and the FDOT staff/consultants will be held at the Florida DOT, District 5 Urban Office, 133 South Semoran Blvd., Orlando, Florida.
To request an individual meeting, please contact: Nazih Haddad, FDOT Manager for Passenger Rail Development at (850)414-4534 on or before November 20, 2009.
