The City of Moline is seeking statements of
qualifications from professional consulting firms for the
purpose of developing
a land use and transportation corridor
study for the River Drive corridor. River Drive runs parallel
to the Mississippi River through the Illinois Quad Cities

of Moline expects that there may be changes in traffic
patterns, land use demands, and infrastructure needs within
the corridor based on current and planned development
activity. It is the purpose of this study to anticipate and
identify these changes in order to determine an optimal plan
for the future of the River Drive Corridor. Moline is a
community of 43,768 (U.S. Census, 2000) located in northwest
Illinois on the Mississippi River. Moline is part of the Quad
Cities metropolitan area (Davenport-Moline-Rock Island, IA-IL MSA). A full length version of the project RFQ is available at
