📋 Tender Overview
Project : PFO-010-21
Project Description : -Traffic Operations, including the Signs and Markings and Signals Divisions, currently operates out of 1269 Mercer. Through the years, the needs for these divisions has changed with new technology, increased workload and space requirements. The Signals Division operates the Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) from the 1269 Mercer location, this system has expanded over the years and has a hardware value of over $1M including a number of digital servers and sensitive equipment. Because of the age of the building, the electrical system is no longer able to service the needs of this equipment without significant upgrades. After reviewing the operations at each 1269 Mercer, 1266 McDougall and 1531 Crawford Yard, it was determined that there would be significant synergies in moving IMS to Crawford Yard. This would free up enough space to accommodate the ATMS and associated staff within the McDougall facility. As this system is one of the most highly technical systems of it’s kind in the Province, creating a more functional space for this equipment, will further provide opportunities to showcase the sophisticated system to outside parties. The proposed project includes; 1- Relocating the ATMS equipment from Mercer to 1266 McDougall, completing electrical upgrades, renovations for the Traffic Operations Centre (TOC). 2- Move Information Management Strategy (IMS) staff from the McDougall facility to the Crawford Yard facility and completing some building renovations and/or a small addition as required. 3- Completing some minor renovations to the Mercer building to provide suitable work space for the remaining staff.
