About this file
This file is a specification section from the Borough of Jenkintown, Pennsylvania, detailing traffic control and accommodation requirements for the 2026 Sanitary Sewer Cleaning and Video Survey project. The specification outlines comprehensive traffic management procedures contractors must implement during construction, including the provision and maintenance of barricades, safety fencing, warning signs, flashers, traffic cones, and flagpersons as indicated in drawings or directed by the Engineer. The contractor is required to maintain vehicular and pedestrian access to adjacent properties and ensure continuous access for emergency vehicles throughout construction. Specific notification requirements mandate that the Borough be informed 48 hours in advance of temporary road blockages, parking restrictions, or detour implementations, while the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation must be contacted at least 24 hours prior to any lane closures or work within state highway rights-of-way. Work on state highways is restricted to 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM or 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM. A pre-bid meeting is scheduled for October 16, 2026, at 10:00 AM at the Borough offices, with sealed bids due by 11:00 AM on October 30, 2026.
All traffic control work must comply with 67 PA Code Chapter 203 and PennDOT Publication 203 regarding work zone traffic control. Contractors are responsible for notifying emergency services, including Borough Police and Fire Departments, prior to commencing work. The work area must be properly barricaded and secured during non-work hours to maintain unrestricted full-width use of through traffic lanes. The Engineer may suspend other construction activities if traffic maintenance procedures are deemed unsatisfactory, with no adjustment to contract price or timeline for delays resulting from such corrections. Bid requirements include a certified check or bid bond of at least ten percent of the bid amount, and all bidders submitting bids of $100,000 or greater must demonstrate proof of competency and responsibility in accordance with Jenkintown Borough Ordinance No. 2008-2. Pennsylvania prevailing wage rates apply to all prime contractors and subcontractors.
