LANE RENTAL

SSP-210F(128)PM, JP NO. 30079(10), CARTER COUNTY

These Special Provisions revise, amend, and where in conflict, supersede applicable Sections of the 2019 Standard Specifications for Highway Construction.

108.12 LANE RENTAL (Add the following:)

This provision establishes lane rental fees for lane restrictions. The completion of this contract requires lanes on I-35 to be reduced, in the southbound direction, as shown in the Traffic Control Details in the plans.

Short term daily lane closures will be allowed on the contract, but must follow the guidelines of this provision. Contact the Resident Engineer to request approval for the use of short term daily lane closures.

The Contractor's sequence may vary from the sequence shown in the plans in order to eliminate lane closures during the times specified in Subsection 108.12.A.(1).

Lane rental fees will apply if free flowing traffic is disrupted during the times specified in Subsection 108.12.A.(1) of this provision, and if the Contractor closes lanes without prior approval from the Resident Engineer.

Schedule work in a manner that minimizes the disruption of free-flowing traffic on I-35, to lessen concerns of safety and the inconvenience to the public.

A. Lane Restrictions

(1) General Lane Restrictions

Due to anticipated traffic well in excess of normal levels, no lane closures will be allowed on I-35 during the following times. If the contract extends beyond the special events and holidays listed, restrictions will still apply.

(2) Short Term Lane Restrictions

Contract work using short term, daily lane closures will be allowed without the assessment of lane rental fees. Short term lane closures typically do not include the use of median barrier. The Contractor must be present and performing contract work that requires a lane closure for the safety of the traveling public, and be able to safely open the highway to free-flowing traffic upon completion of the daily operation and any subsequent and reasonable time for curing. The Contractor will be expected to meet the drop-off standard (PDT-1-3) and to backfill any areas where a drop-off is present when lanes are opened. Short term lane closures will not be allowed during the times described in Subsection 108.12.A.(1) of this provision.

B. Lane Rental Fees

A lane rental fee of $5,000 per lane per hour will be assessed if I-35 is restricted to less than two (2) lanes, in either direction, during the periods described in Subsection 108.12.A.(1).

Lane rental fees will be charged in increments of fifteen (15) minutes. As applicable, lane rental fees will be charged against each progressive estimate until free-flowing traffic is achieved as specified in Subsection 108.12.C.

C. Free-Flowing Traffic

Free flowing, unrestricted, two lane traffic will generally include, but is not limited to, completed bridge deck and safety rails (including cure time in accordance with specifications), installation of guardrail and GET's in their final configuration, removal of temporary traffic signals, removal of barrier wall, smooth transition of grades and alignments between the surface of the approach roadway and bridge deck, installation of pavement markings (temporary stripe minimum), and other such items as determined by the Engineer.

If weather conditions or other circumstances beyond the Contractor's control impede placement of permanent pavement markings, temporary pavement markings may be installed as approved by the Engineer at no additional cost to the Department. In such cases, submit a schedule for the Engineer's approval, indicating that permanent pavement markings will be installed as soon as practical. Use rolling lane closures in the vicinity of the personnel and equipment necessary for installing pavement markings operations. The Department will not consider compensation for costs associated with placement and removal of temporary pavement markings, nor any cost for preparation to install permanent pavement markings.

PAGE 14 OF 51PROPOSAL ID : 260143

108-417(c-c) 19

D. Critical Path Method (CPM)

Prepare and submit a Critical Path Method (CPM) analysis in accordance with Subsection 108.03 of the Standard Specifications within 30 days after the award of the contract. Include the cost of preparing and maintaining the CPM in other items of pay. Develop and maintain the CPM to meet all contract requirements. Submit schedule revisions to the Engineer for approval. Prepare and submit updates upon request by the Engineer, but no more than once every 30 days.

E. Additional Traffic Control, Attenuator, and Striping

The Contractor may submit an alternate schedule and traffic control plan to the Engineer for approval. Costs for quantities over and above plan quantity, items not shown in the plans but deemed necessary for traffic control, additional striping and stripe removal, additional relocation of barrier wall, and other safety appurtenances not shown in the plans but deemed necessary for compliance with applicable Standards and the MUTCD will be included in other items of work.

± 0.001 inch to concrete, with a minimum compressive strength of 4000 psi. Allow the material to cure for 72 hours at 77EF before performing the test in accordance with AASHTO T237.

(4) Yellowness Index

Ensure the value after 72 hours in QUV is a maximum of 30 when tested at 0.01 ± 0.001 inch and after allowing 72 hours to cure. This is applicable to white markings only, and should be tested in accordance with ASTM E313.

(5) Drop on Glass Beads

Provide glass beads in accordance with Special Provision 711-3, Subsection 711.05.B, "Glass Beads for Traffic Stripe Thermoplastic or Plural Component." Provide a material certification from the glass bead manufacturer to the Engineer, for any glass beads prior to installation, including a document verifying that the provided glass have the appropriate coating for the plural-component material being installed. Additionally, provide a camsizer calibration for blended beads in addition to the material certification.

Provide a sample of all types of glass beads being utilized to the Engineer prior to installation.

Test the glass beads in accordance with AASHTO T346 in order to verify that the material meets the certification provided by the manufacture. Install beads in accordance with Subsection 856.04.C(2) of this provision.

(6) Non-Reflectorized Contrast or Shadow Markings

Install non-reflectorized contrast or shadow markings on all portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement surfaces, regardless of the length. Ensure the marking material used for the contrast or shadow marking conforms to the same formulation, material, and pre-approved sampling requirements, except for the following items: color pigments used, color requirements listed, and anti-skid material. Install anti-skid material in accordance with Subsection 856.04.C(2) of this provision.

(7) Sampling and Certification

Submit a Type D certification to the Engineer for each batch of stripe used on every project. The Engineer may require a one (1) quart sample of both the plural-component resin, as well as a one (1) quart sample of the material hardener to be submitted to the Department's Materials Division. This is for testing purposes of the material as well as to ensure the product is present on the Approved Products List (APL).

If the manufacturer makes any formulation changes to the plural-component striping material, ensure the manufacturer submits a written explanation of the changes to the formulation, the new physical and chemical properties for the resin, and a new safety data sheet (SDS) for the stripe to the Department's Traffic Engineering Division. The material will be re-evaluated, re-approval, and relisted on the APL at least thirty (30) days prior to its use.

(8) Other Available Colors

If a plural-component material is utilized on a project that is of a color other than white, yellow, or black, install this material per the project plans. It is preferred that Methylmethacrylate (MMA) plural-component material be used in these cases.

856.03 EQUIPMENT

Use equipment that sprays the plural-component materials in the manufacturer recommended proportions. Mount the equipment on a truck capable of applying uniformly dimensioned markings as required by the Contract.

PAGE 26 OF 51PROPOSAL ID : 260143

856-3(c-j) 19

Provide equipment with an automatic bead dispenser that also continuously mixes and agitates the pavement marking material.

Provide equipment capable of placing at least 40,000 ft of the following types of markings per day to the alignment, spacing, and thickness shown on the Plans:

• Solid or skipped stripes 6 in wide;

• Markings other than solid or skipped lines; and

• A centerline and no-passing barrier stripe configuration consisting of one skip stripe with two solid stripes, simultaneously.

Ensure the equipment places markings with clean edges of uniform cross section and thicknesses, with square ends, and with an approximate stripe-to-gap ratio of 1:3.

Ensure the equipment uniformly and instantly places the beads on the markings. When placing beads on two adjacent stripes, ensure each stripe has an equivalent bead coverage rate and embedment.

Provide equipment that heats and places each component within the component mix tolerances in accordance with the manufacturer recommendations.

Use equipment fitted with a functional data logging system. Ensure the data logging system is operational, calibrated, and in use before striping operations. Provide the Engineer with a certification that the data logging system equipment meets the manufacturer's recommended calibration, along with the manufacturer's recommendations for equipment calibration frequency.

Install materials that have the ability to be placed without the use of specific equipment discussed in this section (such as a roller) in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations and to the satisfaction of the Engineer.

856.04 CONSTRUCTION METHODS

A. Surface Preparation

Remove foreign material from the road surface before applying the plural-component material.

Ensure the pavement surface is dry.

Use abrasive blasting, grinding, or high-pressure water jet to remove existing, temporary, or permanent traffic markings until at least 95 percent of the underlying pavement is visible. Use these methods when removing existing material to apply a new material that is not of the same type, such as removing hot applied thermoplastic markings to install a plural-component marking material, or removing a type of plural-component material that will not bond to the existing material, unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer that the quantity of removal is not necessary for proper adhesion and longevity.

Remove the curing compound at least 1 inch beyond the width of the marking. After removing the curing compound, sweep and use a high-pressure air spray.

When removing a material to replace it with the same type of material and to minimize damage to the pavement surface while still providing a clean surface for new materials to bond to, use abrasive blasting, grinding, or a method approved by the Engineer to remove existing, temporary, or permanent traffic markings until 80 percent of the underlying pavement is visible, or to the inspector's preference.

Unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer, this reduced removal option is only allowed when the existing and new materials will bond to each other without cracking or loss of cohesion.

Minimize interference between temporary pavement markings and the permanent plural-component pavement marking materials.
