Name of Project: City of Dexter Dan Hoey Road – School Corridor Traffic Safety and Efficiency Study
Publication Date: Tuesday, September 29, 2026
Agencies: Collaboration between City of Dexter and Washtenaw Area Transportation Study
Project Description: The City of Dexter and the Washtenaw Area Transportation Study (WATS) are jointly soliciting proposals from qualified consulting firms to provide a Traffic Safety and Efficiency Study on Dan Hoey Rd. from Dexter-Ann Arbor Rd. to Baker Rd. in the City of Dexter, Michigan. The purpose of the Study is to measure, understand, and evaluate traffic flow along the corridor, including traffic to and from the Dexter Community Schools campus, and to recommend solutions for geometric and design alternatives. WATS will administer the procurement process and execute the consultant contract on behalf of the City of Dexter.
Please note that although preliminary concept drawings could be included, the scope of this feasibility study does not and cannot include designing the project.

Questions Received:
1) Is there a page limit to the proposal response?
There is no page limit to the proposal response.
2) Should the cost proposal be developed as a separate document and submitted on its own?
The cost proposal can be included as part of the rest of the proposal, or as a separate document, but regardless, the cost proposal should be included as part of one single submission.
3) To whom should the cover letter be addressed?
It can be addressed to either Anton Schauerte or the Steering Committee as a whole.
4.) Is the operational analysis intended to include the roundabout at Baker Rd / Dan Hoey Rd and possible enhancements? If yes, is there a desired analysis tool/model? Will the Baker Rd/Shield Rd roundabout be included?
The Baker/Dan Hoey roundabout and the Dan Hoey/Dexter-Ann Arbor intersections are both included, insofar as those intersections impact the flow of traffic to, from, and on Dan Hoey Rd. The roundabouts at Baker/Dan Hoey and Shield/Baker are unlikely to see significant structural changes in the near term, so the study should focus on improvements like signage, pavement markings, etc. in the area of the Baker/Dan Hoey roundabout. There is not a specific desired analysis tool or model.
