Cinnamon Mountain Road Stabilization Project - Phase 1: Design and Install Anchor System

The Town of Mt. Crested Butte, Colorado (“Town”) is requesting proposals from qualified firms (“Bidder”) for the design and installation of tie-back anchors to stabilize a landslide section of Cinnamon Mountain Road (“Project”).

Broadband Fiber Installation and Carrier Neutral Location (CNL) Construction

The Town of Mt. Crested Butte (Town) is soliciting proposals from qualified firms to install broadband fiber and construct a Carrier Neutral Location (CNL) for the Town of Mt. Crested Butte, Colorado.  This Project involves the construction of a new CNL facility located in the existing Town Transit Center building and the installation of an open-access middle mile line connecting the new CNL with the existing CNL in the Town of Crested Butte.  The Town is seeking to improve and expand its broadband fiber communications network infrastructure for middle mile connectivity between the proposed CNL in the Town of Mt. Crested Butte Transit Center and the existing CNL in the Town of Crested Butte.  This Project would increase broadband capacity, reliability, and foster last-mile competition to keep costs low.  Portions of the Town, particularly in the developing north end, are currently underserved and experience a poor level of broadband service.  This Project would provide infrastructure to allow one or more ISP providers of last mile service to deploy high performance broadband throughout Town.
