About this file

This is a technical specifications document for traffic signal systems and street lighting infrastructure prepared by the City of Lake Forest, California, establishing detailed requirements for traffic signal installations, modifications, and related equipment. The specifications cover comprehensive material standards, construction methodologies, and qualified product lists for traffic signal cabinets, controllers, detection systems, pedestrian signals, closed-circuit television systems, emergency vehicle preemption systems, street lighting, and associated infrastructure. The document references California Department of Transportation standards, NEMA specifications, and the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices as governing standards. Key components specified include NEMA TS-2 Plug-N-Go Type P cabinets with Econolite Cobalt controllers featuring touch screens and EOS systems, video detection using Iteris Vantage Apex technology, fiber optic interconnect systems with Corning cable and splice closures, LED luminaires, ADA-compliant pedestrian push buttons, and IP-CCTV systems mounted on traffic signal poles. The specifications mandate pre-installation configuration and testing of cabinet assemblies at the Agency lab at least 21 working days before field installation, with turn-on inspections scheduled between 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on working days excluding Fridays and days preceding legal holidays. All installations must include continuous fiber optic cable with no splices between cabinets, proper conduit depths (42 inches beneath streets, 30 inches below curb and gutter), hand-pulled conductors with specific color-coding requirements, and comprehensive testing documentation including pre- and post-installation OTDR traces.

The specifications establish mandatory use of pre-qualified materials and equipment listed on the Lake Forest Traffic Signal Qualified Products List, with substitution requests requiring Agency approval within 30 days of submittal. Specific approved manufacturers include Econolite for controllers, EDI for flasher units, Corning for optical fiber and splice closures, Iteris for video detection, GTT for Emergency Vehicle Preemption systems, and various approved vendors for signal faces, pedestrian signals, and CCTV equipment. All work must comply with California Administrative Code Title 8, the National Electrical Code, and State Standard Specifications Section 86. The Contractor is responsible for maintaining existing detection systems during construction and must complete repairs to damaged systems within 24 hours, with video detection installation required if damage exceeds 50 percent of existing presence loops. Battery backup systems must be included in service enclosure assemblies using approved models from the QPL. All cabinet wiring diagrams must be approved by the City Engineer before construction begins, and a factory-trained technician employed by the controller manufacturer must be present at equipment turn-on to verify proper operation and complete software configuration as needed.

3. Sign Frame & PanelConstruction:

The width or the sign shall be 18” (450 mm). Length to be determined by the text and shall not be less than 60” (1200 mm) or more than 96” (2400 mm).

a. Frames:

The frame shall be aluminum channel extrusion, 1.25” x 1.25” x .125” (35 x 35 x 3 mm) wall thickness. Alloy 6063-T5. All joints of the aluminum channel shall be welded with an inert gas shielded-arc welding process using 4043 electrode filler wire in accordance with good shop practice. The width of the filler wire shall be equal to the wall thickness of the channel being welded.

The top of the frame will have two 2” x 2” x .250” (53 x 53 x 6 mm) wall thickness channel members welded and fastened to the frame with stainless steel bolt, washer, lock nuts and cotter pins. The adjustable swing assembly will be attached to thesemembers.

b. Assembly:

A sign panel shall be fastened to both sides of the channel frame to make a double-faced unit. Each sign panel must be a continuous sheet, no vertical or horizontal splices to make up one panel.

The sign panels shall be affixed to the frame with 3/16” (5 mm) diameter blind pop rivets, alloy 5052, or a type approved by the City.

They must be aluminum approved. The exposed face of the rivet shall be of similar shade and compatible with face color of the finished sign.

The rivets shall be placed through the face of the sign with the wall of the channel placed against the back of the sign panel. Rivets shall be placed no closer than ½” (13 mm) from the edge of the sign panel and a maximum of 8” (200 mm) apart from one another. All rivets must penetrate the web of the channel frame for proper grip strength between sign panel and frame.

The swing hinge is attached to the 2” x 2” (53 x 53 mm) channel member with a ¼” (7 mm) stainless steel bolt and bronze bushing, and then secured with any lock nut.

4. Mounting Assemblies:

The top of the sign frame shall have two free swinging mounting brackets. They shall be of all aluminum, bronze, and stainless-steel parts. The 5” (125 mm) long stainless-steel bolt for fine adjustments shall have nuts and lock washers, or self-locking nuts and cotter key. Dampening springs are required. The bracket assembly shall permit the sign to swing perpendicular to the supporthardware.

The aluminum mounting brackets shall be adjustable MD Solutions Inc. Oscillating Mast Arm Bracket-Adj or approved equivalent (for example, ZAP Manufacturing Bracket Kit, Hawkins Adjustable Bracket Kit).

When installation of the sign to the mast arm is complete, the sign should swing freely 90 degrees in both directions when moved by the installer.

5. Finish:

The finished sign shall be flat within a ratio of 0.40” (10 mm) per linear foot when measured across the plane of each panel from opposite corners or at any location on the panel. All finished signs shall have a smooth flat surface without defects or objectionable marks of any kind on either the front or the back faces. All letters and designs shall be clearly cut and sharply defined.

The appearance of the sign face shall be uniform throughout and shall be free of wrinkles, gel, hard spots, streaks, extrusion marks, air bubbles or blemishes that may impair the serviceability, detract from the general appearance or color-matching of the sign when viewed from a distance of twenty-five (25) feet (7.5 m).

The finished sign shall be clean and free from all burns, sharp edges, loose rivets and aluminum marks.

Signs with any defects or damage that affect their appearance and serviceability will not be acceptable. All metal parts shall be fabricated in a uniform and quality workmanlike manner with all sign surfaces and edges free of defects. No repairs shall be made to the face sheet without the approval of the City inspectors.
