Purchase of CNG Cutaway Buses

The City of Wilsonville, through its Transit Department, South Metro Area Regional Transit (hereinafter “SMART”), is requesting price quotes for the purchase of four (4) medium size buses (the “Project”) that:

• Are light duty transit buses;
• Have a dedicated compressed natural gas (CNG) engine;
• Hold approximately 21 ambulatory passengers;

This is a Minimum Required Specification. (Responsive/Non‐Responsive). This Project ☒ does ☐ does not involve federal funds.

All proposals must be submitted and received via e‐mail (simonton@ci.wilsonville.or.us), U.S. mail, or by hand‐delivery by Thursday, September 1, 2022, at 3:00 PM, mailing address: 29799 SW Town Center Loop East, Wilsonville, OR 97070, Attn: Scott Simonton, SMART Fleet Manager.  Proposals received after the deadline will not be opened, and will be rejected without consideration.
