Among the improvements to be taken up include upgrades to traffic signals, stormwater, water and sewer, and aspects of the Frazier Avenue Comprehensive Neighborhood Improvement Project.
After reviewing the bids, it was determined that both bids had high costs, especially on traditional infrastructure items.
Even the low bid for construction placed the CityLYNX Gold Line Phase 2 Project at $9.2m more than the $150m project budget.
The city plans to award a construction contract in November.
