Shelby County Government (the "County") is soliciting proposals from interested and qualified Vendors to provide professional services for the development of Memphis MPO's 2055 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and update of the Travel Demand Model (TDM).

Additionally, the selected consultant or consultant team will update the base year of the Travel Demand Model using the latest data and will ensure that the updated model meets the model approval guidelines.
