The purpose of this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) is to identify and select a qualified consulting agency or firm to prepare a vision for a future integrated multi-modal station and the surrounding City and/or neighborhoods. The City’s transit center - Millbrae station - is located at the heart of the Millbrae Station Area Specific Plan. It is currently a hub providing access to local transit options including BART, Caltrain, SamTrans, corporate shuttles, and other modes of transit. It also provides a connection to SFO via BART. Designated as the only station proximate to SFO in the planned California HSR system and the sole stop between San Francisco and San Jose, Millbrae station holds the promise of making much of California more easily accessible to global travelers and making nonstop global air travel accessible to most Californians. The station will serve as a regional hub for domestic and global passengers by linking SFO to San Francisco, Silicon Valley, the entire Bay Area and beyond. Passenger growth at the station is expected to increase in the future as high-speed rail replaces short-distance intrastate routes currently served by regional airlines.
