The locator tone shall be active during the flashing yellow and alternating flashing red intervals of a pedestrian hybrid beacon phasing sequence.

Upon button press, the locator tone at that pushbutton shall be interrupted and a speech message of “Wait” shall be broadcast.

The normal status of the pilot light shall be dark. The pilot light shall illuminate upon button press and stay illuminated until the start of the walk interval, when it shall return to dark. If the associated pedestrian phase is set to pedestrian recall, the pilot light shall stay illuminated for all intervals except for the walk interval.

The audible walk indication shall an audible tone unless a speech message is called for in the Plans. The audible

00715 - 11 tone shall repeat at 8 to 10 ticks per second, in multiple frequencies, with the dominant component at 880 Hz.

If a speech message is used, the following shall apply:

For exclusive pedestrian phases, during the walk interval the speech message shall be: “walk sign is on for all crossings.” This message shall be broadcast a single instance.

*For concurrent pedestrian phases, during the walk interval the speech message shall be: “[STREET NAME]. Walk sign is on for [STREET NAME].” This message shall be broadcast a single instance.

If the signal is programmed to rest in walk, the concurrent pedestrian speech message shall be repeated upon each subsequent button press.

DESCRIPTION

856.20: General

The Connected Work Zone Notification System (CWZNS) is a system of field devices that transmit real-time location-based data about work zones. CWZNS field device data is provided in a Work Zone Data Exchange (WZDx) Device Feed in accordance with the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) WZDx Specification. The Device Feed is consumed by the MassDOT Work Zone Manager (WZM) application.

The Contractor shall be responsible for furnishing, installing, repositioning, operating, maintaining, and

00715 - 13 removing these CWZNS devices.

MATERIALS

856.40: General

Materials shall meet the requirements specified in the following Subsections of Division III, Materials:

Material Section

Location Marker M10.18.1

Connected Arrow Board M10.18.2

End Location Markers shall conform to M10.18.1: Location Marker and include power and communication status lights and an on/off switch.

856.41: Arrow Board

Arrow Boards shall consist of a matrix of yellow elements that may be illuminated in flashing or sequential patterns, on a non-reflective, black background. The light output from the Arrow Board shall meet the minimum legibility distance, per the MUTCD. The elements shall be capable of at least 50% dimming from full brilliance to avoid nighttime glare. Arrow Boards that are continuously operational in both daylight and nighttime conditions shall automatically adjust the light output based upon ambient light conditions.

The mounting height of the Arrow Board, when in operation, shall be per the Plans.

The minimum dimensions and number of elements for Arrow Boards shall be per Table 856.41-1.

Arrow Boards that are categorized as “Connected Arrow Boards” (Items 856.160 and 856.196) shall meet the requirements of M10.18.2: Connected Arrow Board in addition to the requirements of an Arrow Board described in this Subsection.

856.42: Shop Drawings

Within 30 days of the Notice to Proceed, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for review and approval cut sheets for each model of CWZNS device to be used. The cut sheets shall document device specifications, including details of how the CWZNS device will communicate. Work that requires the use of CWZNS devices shall not commence until the submission has been approved.

CONSTRUCTION METHODS

856.60: General

At least 15 days prior to deploying CWZNS devices, the Contractor shall visit the site to verify cellular coverage.

00715 - 14

If the devices the Contractor plans to deploy do not have coverage, the Contractor shall swap out the cellular modem, SIM card, or both to a carrier that provides coverage. If no adequate cellular coverage exists from 4G LTE or 5G providers, the Contractor shall immediately notify the Engineer.

The Contractor shall install CWZNS devices at the locations shown on the Plans.

Per the WZDx Specification Device Feed, an End Location Marker shall have a single Marked Location with the “type” property as “work-zone-end”.

The Contractor shall install and power on the End Location Marker coinciding with the deployment of the temporary traffic control setup that calls for its use. The Contractor shall power down and remove the Location Marker at the conclusion of the removal of the temporary traffic control setup. If the location of the work moves during a work shift, the Contractor shall power down the Location Marker, relocate it, and then power it back on.

The operating mode for the Arrow Board or Connected Arrow Board shall be per the Plans. When activated, the minimum element on-time shall be 50% for the flashing mode, with equal intervals of 25% for each sequential phase. The flashing rate shall be not less than 25 or more than 40 flashes per minute.

If a Connected Arrow Board is being used to transmit its location without utilizing other arrow board functions, such as operating a Flashing Arrow, the arrow board shall remain dark and removed from the roadway or protected from approaching traffic while the data is being transmitted.

The Contractor shall be responsible for remediating any CWZNS device that is not operating as specified, at no additional cost to the Department.

CWZNS devices that are lost, stolen, vandalized, damaged, destroyed, or deemed unacceptable while their use is required on the project shall be replaced by the Contractor at no additional cost to the Department.
