The Government of Alberta is seeking industry feedback on plans for Commercial Safety Rest Areas along Highway 2 between Calgary and Edmonton.
- **Buyer:** Government of Alberta, Alberta Transportation and Economic Corridors (TEC).
- **Opportunity:** Request for vendor comments on draft plans to develop and operate up to three Commercial Safety Rest Areas; this is feedback gathering, not a request for proposals.
- **Proposed locations:** Dickson-Stevenson Stopping House, Wolf Creek Safety Rest Area, and a new southbound site near Millet.
- **Anticipated services:** Lease, develop, operate, and maintain the sites, offering all-season, 24-hour washrooms, safe parking, and commercial services such as fuel, convenience retail, quick-serve food, or vending.
- **Commercial considerations:** Vendors are invited to comment on financial viability and potential support needs. The proposed approach does not charge rent.
- **OEMs and vendors:** No specific OEMs, vendors, products, part numbers, or quantities of goods are identified.

### Description

This Request for Comments invites vendors to review draft work and attachments for developing and operating Commercial Safety Rest Areas on Highway 2, and provide input to help prepare a subsequent Negotiated Request for Proposals. The proposed sites are Dickson-Stevenson Stopping House, Wolf Creek SRA, and a new southbound site near Millet. The anticipated NRFP would seek qualified vendors to lease, develop, operate, and maintain up to three sites, offering all-season washrooms, safe parking, and commercial services. Vendors are also asked to comment on financial viability and supports needed; the RFC is for comments, not the later proposal process.
