Appendix 5 Traffic Control.pdf

This is a Traffic Control Appendix document prepared for the South Carolina District 2 Catch Basin Repair project. The appendix provides detailed specifications and requirements for traffic control measures to be implemented during catch basin repair operations. The document outlines the standards and procedures contractors must follow to ensure public safety and maintain traffic flow during construction activities. Traffic control requirements include the placement of warning signs, temporary pavement markings, barricades, and traffic diversion measures in accordance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) and South Carolina Department of Transportation standards. The specifications detail the types, sizes, colors, and placement locations for all traffic control devices, including advance warning signs, work zone signs, and lane closure devices. Contractors are required to implement traffic control plans that minimize disruption to existing traffic patterns and protect both workers and the public during repair operations.

The traffic control measures must be maintained throughout the duration of catch basin repair work and adjusted as needed based on site-specific conditions and traffic volumes. All traffic control devices must meet reflectivity and visibility standards to ensure effectiveness during both day and night operations. Contractors are responsible for the cost of all traffic control materials and labor associated with implementing and maintaining the prescribed traffic control measures. The specifications require coordination with local traffic authorities and compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local traffic control regulations and safety standards.
