SCOPE AND SPECIFICATIONS

Pavement and Sign Inspections

SCOPE OF WORK

Floyd County maintains approximately 735 paved centerline road miles. Currently, we use OpenGov software (formerly Cartegraph) to track our roads and signs. We use the software to track our road sections with start and stop points along with an Overall Condition Index (OCI). A must for our signs is to track them by location (mile marker, etc.) and the MUTCD code. It isn’t required, but consideration will be given to the company that can provide additional information such as the pole type, size, height, and installation date. Also, preference is by mile marker vs. coordinates.

Our most recent road inspections were done in 2024 and early 2025. Historically, we would inspect our arterials and our collectors annually, and our local roads once every three years.

Our intent for signs is to inspect and replace annually per the same inspection schedule as the roads, in addition to replacing them when needed.

Our intent is to select a company to replace the manual collection and data entry and provide the same information, and possibly more. Expectation is to meet the same goal as stated above for the roads - arterials and collectors annually, local roads once every three years. The same would be included for signs*.

*County employees will maintain the sign inventory and edit when needed due to unscheduled replacement and/or time frame.

ROADWAY PAVEMENT INSPECTION SPECIFICATIONS

• Contractor shall perform a pavement condition survey for the roads identified by Floyd County. The developed ratings shall use the latest ASTM-D6433-18 standards using PCI. Each road shall be measured completely or broken into sections based on obvious breaks.

• Signs must be identified by MUTCD code and document the location based on a pre-determined procedure with the County. In addition, repeat surveys must generate work orders or ‘red flags’ to identify missing or new signs from the previous inspection.

• The Contractor shall state on the package the process they will use to capture and process the data, along with an example of a finished document.

• **All data collection and inspections shall be performed by qualified and trained personnel.

• Surveys must be conducted during dry weather, daylight, and must not pose undue impact to normal traffic operations.

• The production of summary tables shall be flexible to be sorted by each variable.

• The Contractor should be able to blend their data into our OpenGov system with our existing maintenance history.

• The 389 miles includes all of the County’s arterial and collector roads plus approximately 1/3 of the remaining local roads. The expectation is to complete each of the high traffic volume roads annually and the local roads once every 3 years.

• The County requires contractors to provide 3 similar projects completed in the last 3 years with contact information as references. It is preferred that the projects were completed in Georgia but not required.

• All data will remain the property of Floyd County

The County will supply the following information to the Contractor of choice:

a. ESRI GIS shapefile of the County’s Road network

b. Access to the County’s OpenGov files

c. Floyd County will maintain the road and sign database

d. **As an option, the County can offer the staff and a vehicle to capture the data.

Anticipated Deliverables include the following to Floyd County

• Review results with Floyd County and our GIS director. A digital copy of the finalized database in Excel

• Development of a technical report with tables and figures to summarize the condition of County roads. This report shall contain all collected pavement data, PCI, completed sign inventory, with video access.

• ESRI compatible GIS file containing roadway PCI value to be integrated into the County’s GIS system.

Deadline for inspections are due by 6 weeks of receipt of order

• All reports to be submitted within 4 weeks of the completion of inspections
