Programming and design services for Cottonwood Canyons resort transit stations

Utah is seeking programming and design consultants for transit stations serving Solitude and Brighton ski resorts in the Cottonwood Canyons. - Buyer: State of Utah Division of Facilities Construction and Management (DFCM), Executive Branch Agencies, for the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT). - Requested services: Programming, architectural and engineering design, and building-related site and civil design for stations at Solitude Mountain Resort and Brighton Ski Resort. Work includes site and master-plan analysis, ALTA and topographic surveys, geotechnical and percolation evaluations, facility and utility analysis, space programming, cost estimates, schedules, renderings, and stakeholder coordination. - Station requirements: Plan for up to 400 passengers per hour and surge holding capacity of 200–300. Include passenger waiting and locker areas, public restrooms, and driver facilities. Solitude also requires UDOT maintenance-vehicle storage; Brighton requires avalanche-crew lodging. - Design and site constraints: Use a flexible modular kit-of-parts based on a standardized 9-by-2 structural-bay layout, suited to the mountain environment and USDA Forest Service guidance and permit conditions. Protect the Mill F East Fork stream and do not locate fuel, lubricant, or hazardous-material storage at Solitude. - Potential additions: Design work may be extended to a Snowbird station and potentially an Alta station. Broader transportation engineering and transportation infrastructure are outside the proposing prime’s required scope. - Named organizations: UDOT, DFCM, USDA Forest Service, Solitude Mountain Resort, Brighton Resort, and Utah Transit Authority (UTA). No commercial vendors or OEMs are identified. - Cost context: The stated $19.1 million estimate is for construction, not the consultant-services contract. The services contract value is not provided.
