The City of Burlingame is seeking engineering consultants to develop a citywide plan for safer, better-managed streetlight assets and improvements.
- **Government buyer:** City of Burlingame, Public Works Engineering, Burlingame, San Mateo County, California.
- **Requested service:** Prepare a comprehensive Streetlight Master Plan covering roadway and pedestrian lighting on City streets, intersections, and traffic-signal poles. Parks are excluded.

Optional work may address monitoring, maintenance, and operations.

- **OEMs and vendors:** No product manufacturers or proposed suppliers are identified. PG&E and the other named entities are referenced as streetlight owners or operators, not as proposed vendors or OEMs.

### Description

The City of Burlingame is seeking proposals from qualified professional engineering consulting firms to develop a comprehensive Streetlight Master Plan. The plan will cover roadway and pedestrian-scale lighting along City streets, including intersections and traffic-signal pole-mounted lighting, and address streetlights within the City regardless of ownership. Work includes evaluating existing lighting conditions, infrastructure, and practices; identifying deficiencies and improvements; establishing streetlight standards; and distinguishing City-controlled assets and improvements from those requiring coordination with other agencies or utilities. Proposals are due electronically through PlanetBids by November 19, 2026, at 4:00 PM PT.
