As per the RFP, the current scope of the work is divided into 2 phases. Phase-1: Preparation of Transport Plan for the Region. Phase-2: Detailed Traffic and Engineering Designs Our Suggestion & Clarification required: Expectation or SoW of Phase- 1: Covering detailed traffic and transportation studies, plans, improvement proposals, projects and its prioritisation, preliminary designs. This phase logically shall end with pre-feasibility of the identified/ prioritised projects. The short listed and selected projects based on preliminary feasibility from this Phase-1 shall undergo for a detailed designs.

As we don’t know the number and type of projects that emerge after Phase-1 study that need to be

The Clause 5.6, Form 6: Financial Proposal Submission Form has been revised and shall be read as follows: “Our attached Financial Bid is as follows: 1. For Phase I, lump sum all-inclusive price of__________________________[including all taxes, Amount in words and figures]. 2. For Phase II, all-inclusive ____________________ percentage (%) of total cost of selected projects for Phase II, [including all taxes, Amount in words and figures].” The clause 3.1.(x) has been revised and shall be read as follows: “The Bidder shall quote their financial bid in the following format: 1. For Phase I, the Bidder shall quote all-

inclusive lump sum price (including all taxes) 2. For Phase II, the Bidder shall quote

percentage (%) of total cost of selected projects (including all taxes). Final


considered for detailed engineering at the time of submitting our financial proposals, submitting a financial proposal with a Lump Sum cost estimates as per Form 6 is not technically possible. This also may lead to under estimate/ over-estimate the requirements by the bidders and would be difficult for evaluation and selecting the best consultant based on the Fee quoted. Our Suggestion: Normally, in this scenario, clients typically ask for a quote in terms of “Percentage of the Total Projects Cost” that will be subjected to detailed designs. Hence, it is requested that the consultancy fee / Form 6: Financial Submission form be modified, which shall have separate quote for Phase-1 ( Lump sum) & Phase -2 ( percentage of total project cost that will be required for detailed designs) (DMITS Ltd.)

remuneration/payment to the Consultant for Phase II shall be decided based on the total cost of selected projects and calculated as follows: A. Total cost of projects 0 – 50 Cr = X

(percentage of total cost of selected projects)

B. Total cost of projects 50 – 100 Cr = .8X (percentage of total cost of selected projects)

C. Total cost of projects 100 – 150 Cr = .6X (percentage of total cost of selected projects)

D. Total cost of projects 150 Cr+ = .4X (percentage of total cost of selected projects)

Total payment shall be calculated as: A + B (it applicable) + C (if applicable) (Note: For financial evaluation, we would take the tentative cost of total projects selected for phase II as 75 crore)”

6 Clause 5.6: Form 6: Financial Proposal Submission Form “Our attached Financial Bid is for the all-inclusive price of ___________ [including all taxes, Amount in words and figures].”

It is not clear that how the bidder is to submit the quote.

1. Introduction

Greater Noida is a Greenfield, modern, integrated city, located about 35 km from the National Capital, Delhi.

The Master Plan of this city envisages a population of around 1.2 million by the year 2021. The Greater

Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) is the nodal agency responsible for development and

administration of the city.

Greater Noida is currently well connected within the Region by Greater Noida and Yamuna Expressways and

other regional roads. Further, with the development of the Noida-Greater Noida Metro-rail, Greater Noida will

be connected by a metro rail also.

Greater Noida has rapidly developed to be one of the most vibrant industrial areas in the National Capital

Region (NCR) and is considered to be the hub of information technology in North India. Various industries

such as electronics, manufacturing and other small and medium enterprises have also come up. Further,

with the proposed development of a Night Safari at Greater Noida and multiple projects under the DMIC

(Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor), the area is expected to develop at a rapid pace. As part of the further

development in the Yamuna Expressway area, five Greenfield cities are expected to come up.

Given the current scenario of development and considering the upcoming developments in the area, GNIDA

intends to appoint a Transport Planner to propose solutions for improving inter-connectivity and intra-

connectivity of roads within Greater Noida.

. In view of the above, GNIDA is desirous of selecting a Consultant/ Consortium of Consultants for the

following services:

Identifying a project idea/ concept/ theme that would qualify to be envisaged as “Traffic Solution” for

entry to Greater Noida at identified locations.

Undertake detailed surveys and analysis for smooth traffic flow in the region along with financial

analysis & detailed design and support during the implementation of the approved projects

The Transport Planner will be responsible for understanding the current scenario, estimating future demand

and suggesting interventions for improving the connectivity.

The Project is proposed to be awarded in two Phases as described below:

Phase – I: Preparation of transport plan for the Greater Noida city

Phase – II: Detailed traffic and engineering designs

Phase – III: Project Management Consultancy (PMC) for proposed improvement interventions

The Scope of Work as given in Section 2.1 of this document includes the details of the activities to be

conducted under each Phase.

Currently, GNIDA is inviting Technical and Financial proposals only for Phase – I and Phase – II of

the Project. Based on the performance of the Consultant and on mutually agreeable terms, GNIDA may

award a separate contract to the Consultant for Phase – III. Alternatively, GNIDA may appoint another

consultant to undertake Phase – III of the Project. The decision on the award of Phase – III will be taken at a

later stage.

Prepare a database, specifically related to land-use and topography of the area. Evaluation of SPOT

satellite imagery for providing an updated picture of land use is of special importance in the process of

traffic model development and generating engineering solutions. Authority will provide existing GIS

database which can be used a Base for this study


11 | P a g e

To review the existing urban transport systems, the consultant should collect and review the following

data and information, through literature review, interview survey and field survey.

o Existing studies, reports and proposals

o Existing transport infrastructure including public transport

o Existing traffic safety and enforcement protocols

o Existing technical layouts/sections of key junctions/roundabouts and primary/secondary

roads

o Institutional and financial situation

o Accident Records

o Reconnaissance survey

o Environmental and social condition

Data on existing land use and land use plan should be collected, through a detailed review of existing

development plans, including the Master plan and/or the City Development Plan. In particular, new

development areas that will affect transport demand in the planning area should be inventoried and

summarized.

Based on information/data collected, a basic analysis of the transport and traffic situation should be

carried out identifying characteristics and issues for the city. The following should be carried out:

o Diagnosis of urban transport situation inside Greater Noida with special emphasis given to

key traffic junctions, roundabouts and primary roads in the city

o Diagnosis of urban transport situation particularly with respect to inter-connectivity maybe

also studied on preliminary basis with other neighbouring cities and within Greater Noida.

This should include both existing cities such as Noida, Delhi, Ghaziabad and Faridabad; as

well as planned cities such as those under Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development

Authority (YEIDA) and the Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC)

o Analysis of compliance with appliance National traffic rules, polices & regulations

o Analysis of traffic characteristics

o Analysis of social conditions

Task 1 (iii) Conducting the following surveys for the purpose of data collection and analysis

Traffic surveys: Traffic and other surveys, as defined below, shall be carried out in the forms of surveys,

data collection, assessment, analysis and evaluation. The objective is to determine:

o Traffic flow and composition by link

o Assessment of level of service (urban transport guidelines should be used for benchmarking)

o Vehicle characteristics for determination of vehicle operating costs

Proposed traffic survey locations should be identified during collection of data and be listed in the inception

report. Survey locations should be identified to cover key junctions such as:


12 | P a g e

o T junctions

o Roundabouts (Pari chowk etc.)

o Metro station locations

o School locations

o Congestion stretches

o Traffic situation for peak demand must be studied and factored in during the analysis, wherever

applicable.

Manual classified counts: Classified volume counts will be conducted at critical links and

intersections for a period of 8 hours (4 in the morning and 4 in the evening) including the morning and

evening peak hours. The Consultant will study existing situation and prepare a list of critical links and

intersections. The selection of the critical links and intersections for the survey will be done in

consultation with the Client. The following data will be collected:

o Category/Traffic mode (define) wise hourly flow. Modes of traffic to be covered include bus,

private transport (two wheeler, three wheeler, four wheeler), commercial vehicles, slow

moving vehicles others (such as pedestrian)

o Category wise hourly turning movements

o Variation in flow before, during and after the peak.

Parking survey: Work and business centers, shopping complexes and tourist attractions are major

generators of parking demand. Parking demand should be established by a manual count of each

vehicle type where there significant on street parking occurs. The survey will be conducted for a

period of 12 hours continuously in such areas.

Parking survey should be on the basis of land use survey. Prior to the survey, the master plan and

buildings in each type of land use, and applicable traffic rules & regulations should be reviewed.

Origin destination survey: Origin-destination survey will be conducted through roadside interviews

on an outer cordon i.e. major entry/exit points and on corridors where important activity locations are

situated. The tentative number and location of survey stations, the survey time in hours per day will be

confirmed after detail discussion with the Client. The location and timings of the road side interviews

will coincide with that of traffic counts to facilitate adjustment of sampling. The information shall be

obtained by trained enumerator supervisors and include type of vehicle, make, type of commodity

carried, origin and destination, trip purpose, place of residence, employment, and frequency of travel

of the road user

Speed and delay surveys: These surveys will establish road capacity and extent of congestion on

key sections to determine possible improvements, widening, intersections, traffic control, traffic

management, etc. The consultants shall carry out speed delay surveys in both peak and anti-peak

hour’s directions, during peak and off-peak hours. The free speed shall be observed and impact of the

prevailing traffic on running speed during peak and off-peak hours for each section shall be

established to indicate the level of congestion. Typical delay and causes shall be identified.


13 | P a g e

Mass transit and passenger’s survey: The survey will be conducted on routes within the city and at

terminal areas for a period for 24 hours. The basic purpose of the survey will be to collect information

regarding origin, destination, trip purpose, frequency of travel and other particulars. The random

survey sampling technique will be adopted to survey the passengers and will cover all modes.

Commuter survey: Public and private trips by all modes which originate/terminate outside the city

planning area with destination/origin within the city will be surveyed. The survey will be planned for 24

hours at railway stations and at an outer cordon

Vehicle Operators’ survey: A sample survey of operators of taxis, auto rickshaws, good vehicles

along with slow moving goods vehicles will be conducted inside the city area with assistance from the

vehicle owners’ associations. Information on vehicle and operating characteristics will be collected. In

the case of slow moving goods vehicles, operating cost, socio-economic characteristics of operators

and routes of operation will be determined. The survey will be planned for 24 hours.

Terminal area survey: This survey will collect information on movement patterns of persons/goods at

major terminal and market areas: vehicle (good and passenger) entry/exit, including

commodity/occupancy, etc. The survey is to undertaken at main railway stations, bus terminals, etc.

Pedestrian survey: Pedestrian survey will be carried out to assess flows/demand at identified major

intersections and road corridors. The survey will be from 06:00 to 22:00 on a normal working day and

will detail the number of pedestrians moving along and across the road at mid-block and at

intersections

Road inventory: An inventory will be conducted along all major roads in adequate detail, including

link lengths, cross-sections details, type and general surface conditions, street furniture, intersections,

control devices, drainage conditions, abutting land use, parking, etc

Topographic surveys at key sections/junctions: The Consultant shall conduct plane table surveys

to prepare base plans for critical sections and junctions to facilitate improvements. Total station

survey will also be conducted for major terminals (bus and rail), based on the prevailing traffic

circulations pattern and parking demand, etc. and appropriate improvement proposals will be

established

Develop base year transport demand model: In this task, a base-year transport demand model will

be developed using results of all the above surveys. This shall apply traffic demand modelling to

analyse/evaluate urban land use and the transport system. The modelling should emphasize person-

based travel patterns, along with vehicle movements and include more non-motorized vehicles

(NMV)/pedestrian movements than conventional modelling approaches. It should also enable

integrated planning of urban land use and the transport system.

Task 2: Prepare urban transport development strategy for the future

Vision and Goals: It is essential that mobility improvement measures in proposal form a coherent

package with a consistent vision and goals for the desirable directions of city urban transport. The vision

and goals define the desired form of long-term urban transport system in the city. While visions are

statements of the desirable directions of urban transport development, goals are quantitative/qualitative

targets for major indices, to be achieved within the planning horizons. The Consultant will prepare the


14 | P a g e

vision for the urban transport development strategy and also define quantifiable goals to achieve this

vision.

Urban growth scenarios: In this task, optimal land use and transport systems will be examined. For

analytical purposes, urban growth scenarios will be developed in combination with strategic level transport

networks. While master plans regulate land use pattern, this activity should provide a preferred growth

scenario from the view point of an optimal urban land use and transport development pattern.

Future transport network scenarios: The future transport network consists of the existing network and

additional network. Future modal split (ratio of trips made by public and private transport modes) needs to

be estimated by the use of modelling analysis. When the detailed modelling method is not applied, it is

recommended to set several modal scenarios that will be used in generating alternative networks to meet

the future travel demand.

Development of urban land use and transport strategy: Each combination of transport network and

urban growth scenario developed in the previous tasks should be assessed using the transport demand

model. Land use patterns will be included in the modelling analysis, in terms of a specific distribution of

residential population and employment. Various land-use planning measures should be considered in

relation to transport development strategies. The alternative development scenarios will be evaluated by

using criteria, such as potential for developing public transport systems, total travel time, average travel

speed, and economic indices. Based on the evaluation, a desirable urban development strategy will be

proposed.

Task 3: Develop urban mobility plans

Urban transport projects should be identified which would support the proposed vision and goals and the

development scenario.

Task 3 (i) Public transport improvement plan

A public transport improvement plan should be developed that covers:

o Development of all modes of public transport with a focus on multi-modal integration

o Present and prospective modes of transport e.g. innovative transportation means

o Development of trunk and feeder public transport network

Task 3 (ii) Road network development plan

Road projects will be developed and listed in the proposal, including but not limited to the following:

o Grade separator projects

o Intersections improvement projects for important junctions (Metro Corridor, Pari chowk etc.)

o Flyover projects

o Underpass projects

o Cloverleaf projects

The road network plan should include the following aspects:

o Inter-city connectivity between Greater Noida and other cities


15 | P a g e

o Connectivity within Greater Noida

o Existing and future traffic bottlenecks

o Explanation of proposed strategy in terms of land use pattern

o Public transport network

o Role and benefit of each project within the road network plan

o Recommendations for infrastructure

o Operations and maintenance on existing and proposed road networks

o Provision of sidewalks, skywalks and NMV lanes

o Estimated costs of proposed projects

o Planning improvement at strategic locations

All the recommendations and proposals given by the Consultant must focus on safe and sustainable mobility

solutions.

Task 3 (iii) Non-motorized transport (NMT) facilities

Planning for pedestrians, bicycles and cycle rickshaws will be one of the most important tasks in the plan. As

the plan sets out visions/goals for the region and serves as a strategic level plan for urban land use and

transport systems, the NMT policy level planning may be accepted. However, detailed NMT improvement

plans and traffic management measures can be worked out for commercial centres, metro stations and other

major activity centres, which refine NMT policy for the whole region and provide the costing basis to

implement such policy

Task 3 (iv) Mobility management measures

Measures for mobility management should be developed with implications for regulation and enforcement.

The topics to be covered in this plan include:

o Pedestrian’s facilities

o Non-motorized vehicle facilities

o Traffic control measures

o Parking plan – Space identification as well as provision of adequate parking spaces at all

Intermediate Public Transport (IPT) facilities like bus stations, metro stations, etc.

o Intersection Improvement projects (in parallel with road network development plan)

o Demand management measures

o Traffic safety plan

o Intelligent transport system and user information

Task 4: Prepare implementation programme

Task 4 (i) Preparation of project list


16 | P a g e

An implementation programme including practical procedures to implement the proposed measures, in terms

of timeframe, financing options and implementation agencies, should be prepared. A brief summary of project

information is required, including project title, location, estimated cost, etc. Proposed projects should be

evaluated and prioritized against clear criteria and classified into short, medium and long term (10+ years).

Prioritization methodology should be discussed with the Client before preparing the list of projects for short,

medium and long term implementation.

Specifically, the following tasks should be conducted:

o Preparation of project list (Improvement of important intersections shall be given a priority)

o Selection of priority measures

o Prioritization methodology

o Identification of possible financing options

o Development of implementation programme

Task 4 (ii) Project profile sheets for short term projects

Project profile sheet should be prepared for short term projects

Task 5: Stakeholder’s consultations

The proposal should be discussed with stakeholders throughout the study. An Advisory committee and

workshops/seminars should be organized to coordinate and develop a consensus. In particular

workshops/seminars should be held at the stage of inception report, interim report and draft final report

stages. The primary objective should be to develop a working relationship with stakeholders and to

obtain their views on the proposal.

The primary stakeholders i.e. GNIDA and their concerned staff should be fully involved throughout the

work, such that all aspects of the plan development process and its subsequent updating are within the

capacity of such officials by the end of the study.

Task 6: Preliminary design for all roads (reduce engineering design on this) – enhancement solutions,

smoothening of turns, improving carrying capacity.

The preliminary design of roads will include but not be limited to complete layout of the proposed road

network as per the agreed cross sections with all the features shown thereon, new alignment including

interface with the major roads, proposed mass rapid transit (MRT) corridor and other elements of the

overall region.

Typical Road Cross Sections and Road Network: Layout shall be based on the Master Plan

recommendations for typical cross-sections. Consultants have to review, update and revise the road

cross sections incorporating main carriageway, service road (if required). The road cross sections and

layout should be designed with emphasis on incorporating pedestrians and non-motorised transport

movement, public transport and para-transits, public transport routes, segregating/ dedicating lanes for

Heavy Occupancy Vehicle (HOV)/ commercial vehicle movement, freight terminals, if any

Pavement Cross Sections: Consultant has to design the pavement cross sections for all categories of

roads based on the projected traffic of the demarcated area. The traffic will form the basis for design of


17 | P a g e

pavement. Consultant has to advise on suitable pavement type depending on the site conditions and

soil California Bearing Ratio (CBR). The pavement shall be done strictly based on the provisions of

Indian Road Congress (IRC) and Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH) standards and

codes. Pavement shall be designed typically for repetition of wheel loads in terms of standard axles

over a design period as per IRC standards

Bridges and culverts shall be designed for IRC loading class 70 R and for seismic forces for appropriate

zones. All activities related to field studies, preliminary design and documentation shall be done as per

the latest guidelines/ circulars of MORTH and relevant publications of the IRC and Bureau of Indian

Standards (BIS). For aspects not covered by IRC and BIS, international standard practices, such as,

British and American Standards may be adopted

Geometric design: Road geometry should be designed based on IRC guidelines and international

codes also to be referred in case of any missing data. The preliminary design should support overall

drainage of the site. Latest design software like MX has to be used for the same. Design analysis and

any other software output have to be shared with the client

Drainage design: A detailed preliminary layout of the drainage to be decided and the same has to be

agreed with the client before final submission. This also has to be integrated with the existing drainage

around the site if any. The drainage design should be done for all surface and sub-surface drainage

including junctions. The existing data on rainfall, flood history, existing stream all has to be studied in

detail before preparing drainage plan

Junction Design: As part of the overall preliminary engineering of road network, the intersections have

to be designed based on the traffic projections. Consultants has to identify best suitable warrants for

major intersections in the study area including but not limited to signalised intersections, roundabouts,

grade separated interchanges, etc. Consultants have to provide preliminary designs based on projected

traffic for each of the development phases. Consultant should come out with innovative traffic

management techniques that help in reducing cost of construction such as state of art area level traffic

signalling system that increase the traffic handling capacity of intersections

The Consultant shall identify suitable locations for provision of bus bays, drop-offs and bus shelters on

the proposed road network. As far as possible, bus bays shall not be located on horizontal curves,

summit of vertical curves and bridges. Good visibility must be ensured. Further, the bus bays should not

be too close to major intersections. The length of each such bus bay shall also be indicated.

Apart from the above, the consultant will also have to take up the following as a part of preliminary

design report:

o Traffic circulation plan, utility relocation plan and layout of service road connections,

acceleration/ deceleration and sheltered lanes

o Planning and layout of protection works like retaining/ toe walls, pre-loading, ground treatment

based on geotechnical data, slope protection, bunds, embankments, and drains

o Preliminary design of structures like underpasses, flyovers, pedestrian underpasses/

crossings, railway over bridges (ROBs), indicating the approximate sections and General

Arrangement Drawing (GAD)


18 | P a g e

o Traffic management plan during construction period

o Road signing and marking plans, including over-head and variable message signs, Pavement

Markings, Safety Barriers, Railings, Delineators, Chevron Markings, Traffic Attenuators and

crash barriers

o Overall Circulation and Traffic Management System for entire site
