The MAX BRT Guideway is a 5-mile stretch of roadway running north-south through
central Fort Collins. MAX operates an exclusive guideway for 3.6 miles with the
remaining 1.4 miles intermixed with street traffic. The MAX Guideway corridor runs
parallel to the existing Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad tracks.
The MAX guideway has gates where the guideway meets the cross streets. These
gates are kept in a lowered position when the buses are not entering or exiting the
guideway. This keeps cars off the guideway and from interfering with bus traffic along
the route. Vehicle access gates are an integral part of safety along the guideway to
keep unauthorized traffic and pedestrians off the guideway. There are sixteen (16)
HySecurity StrongArm 28 gates with battery backup in use today along the Guideway.
Dimensions and location of existing gates can be found in Attachment B attached
hereto by reference.

Scope of Work (Pg 5 RFP)
Remove and replace all 16 gates and their operators along the Maxline
Guideway.
Provide an “automatic” system that integrates with Traffic control to ensure
interoperability with our traffic signals and railroad crossings is a top priority.
Transfort buses utilize a combination of Opticom IR, camera detection, and
photo eyes for primary operation of the current gates. Back-up gate openers or
“clickers” are also being used.

program as well as a schedule of rates for evaluation. It is allowable for this
service to be sub-contracted. Labor rates must adhere to current Davis Bacon
