TRAFFIC CONTROL AND PROTECTION, STANDARD 701402 AND 701423

Eff. 08-20-2004 Rev. 04-01-2009

HIGHWAY STANDARD 701402 & 701423: The following sequence shall be followed for installation, relocation, and removal of the traffic control devices and the concrete barrier.

For installation, relocation, removal of barriers and work zone speed limit sign assemblies, ‘Flagger Ahead’ signs and a flagger shall be used as shown on Highway Standard 701401 until the barrier wall is set or relocated with each end properly secured to the pavement and protected with a completely installed impact attenuator and all workers and equipment are located behind the barrier wall. For removal operations, the flagger shall be used until all barriers; traffic control devices, workers and equipment are off the pavement.

INITIAL INSTALLATION OF CONCRETE BARRIER:

Step 1. All warning signs shall be erected beginning with the farthest sign from the work area.

Arrow boards shall be placed and actuated prior to placement of plastic drums forming the taper.

Step 2. The initial lane closure shall be implemented by installing a taper of drums beginning at the edge of pavement and progressing toward centerline until the entire lane is closed.

Step 3. The concrete barrier shall be erected (see Highway Standard 704001) beginning with the last concrete barrier to be placed and proceed toward centerline at a ratio of 12:1 until the lane is closed. The tangent portion shall be placed to provide a minimum work area and a maximum travel lane width. All vertical panels shall be in place before the end of the workday.

RELOCATION OF CONCRETE BARRIER:

Step 1. The tangent portion of the barrier shall be relocated beginning at the end farthest from the taper. Each section of concrete barrier shall be repositioned by relocating it onto the new surface. All operations shall be conducted within the area protected by the lane closure.

Reflective drums at 20’ (6 m') centers shall be used to temporarily protect any openings in between the new and old bridge decks until traffic is relocated.

Step 2. This step should not begin until it appears that this Step and Step 3 can be completed without interruption. The tapered portion of the barrier shall be relocated in two stages. The first stage will line up the taper, as a straight-line extension of the tangent wall and the second stage will form the taper as described in Step 3. The arrow boards should be relocated as required but not actuated until the changeover is completed.

Step 3. Relocate all drums to the center line, alerting all workers to the possibility of motorists using both lanes. Flagger(s) shall direct motorists to the newly surfaced lane and the arrow boards shall be actuated. Install drums forming the new lane closure taper. Revise sign messages for the appropriate lane. Install the concrete wall taper by working behind the drums forming the lane closure, beginning at the previous lead end of the tangent wall and working toward the shoulder.

REMOVAL OF CONCRETE BARRIER:

Step 1. The tangent portion shall be removed beginning at the end farthest from the taper.

Step 2. This step should not begin until it appears that all the concrete barrier can be removed without interruption from the work site. The barriers shall be removed beginning at the downstream end of the tangent portion and continuing upstream to the taper. The taper portion shall be removed last, beginning at the end farthest from the shoulder. Removal of all other traffic control devices should be removed in the normal sequence.

BASIS OF PAYMENT: This work shall be considered as included in the pay item for TRAFFIC

CONTROL & PROTECTION STANDARD 701402, TRAFFIC CONTROL & PROTECTION

STANDARD 701423, for TEMPORARY CONCRETE BARRIER, and for other pay items as described in the Standard Specifications and these Special Provisions. Four (4) vertical panels shall be attached to the barrier wall taper at 25-foot centers, and shall not be paid for separately, but shall be included in the cost of TRAFFIC CONTROL & PROTECTION STANDARD 701402, TRAFFIC CONTROL & PROTECTION STANDARD 701423, and for TEMPORARY CONCRETE

BARRIERS.

Reflectorized temporary marking tape shall be placed throughout the taper and alongside both sides of the work area, or as directed by the engineer. Existing markings that conflict with the staged temporary traffic markings shall be covered with blackout tape. The cost to cover existing markings with blackout tape and the placement and removal of temporary markings shall be included with TRAFFIC CONTROL AND PROTECTION, STANDARD 701402 & 701423.

Barrier Wall Reflectors, Type C shall also be placed on the Temporary Concrete Barrier as shown on TRAFFIC CONTROL AND PROTECTION, STANDARD 701402 and at any other barriers that may require delineation. The Barrier Wall Reflectors, Type C will not be paid for separately, but shall be included in the cost of TRAFFIC CONTROL AND PROTECTION, STANDARD 701402 & 701423.

COOPERATION BETWEEN CONTRACTORS

Eff. 01-01-2024

There is a possibility that other Contractor’s operations may be ongoing within the proposed project limit at the same time as the work included in this contract is being performed. The Contractor for this section shall cooperate with any other Contractors performing work adjacent to this project in accordance with Article 105.08 of the Standard Specifications. Any inconveniences or delays caused the Contractor in complying with this requirement shall be considered incidental to the contract and no additional compensation will be allowed.

CONTRACTOR ACCESS

Eff. 09-11-1990 Rev. 01-01-2014

At road closure locations, where Type III barricades are installed in a manner that will not allow contractor access to the project without relocation of one or more of the barricades, the arrangement of the barricades at the beginning of each workday may be relocated, when approved by the Engineer, in the manner shown on Highway Standard 701901 for Road Closed to Through Traffic. ' Road Closed ' signs (Rll-2), supplemented by ' Except Authorized Vehicles ' signs (R3-Il0l), shall be mounted on both the near-right and the far-left barricade(s). At the end of each workday the barricades shall be returned to their in-line positions. This work will be considered to be included in the cost of the various traffic control items, and no extra compensation will be allowed.

WIDTH RESTRICTION – REPORTING ONLY

The work within this contract will cause a width restriction requiring notification a minimum of 21 days prior to the actual width restriction. The width restriction on this contract is such that no signing will be required.

Width restrictions shall be interpreted as any change in the existing horizontal clearance caused by the placement of physical barrier(s) that extend above the pavement surface. Width restrictions less than 17’-6” (Barrier to Barrier) shall be reported and signed on all roadways. Width restrictions of 17’-6” to 30’-0” on Interstate or multilane roadways shall be reported. Construction activities which close a lane with operating equipment, or with drums, barricades, or cones, will be considered as width restrictions.

Notification of width restriction requires a minimum of 21 days before the actual restriction is placed to ensure specific routed over-width permitted loads are not sent through the restriction site. The Contractor shall notify the Resident Engineer a minimum of 21 days prior to the width restriction. In the notification, the Contractor shall include the location, scheduled restriction start date, road restriction width(s)/closure, proposed posted width (i.e. Barrier to Barrier width minus 18 inches).

The Contractor is advised he will not be allowed to install the width restriction without the 21 day notice and failure to provide proper notice will delay the installation of the width restriction.

The notice of width restriction is considered a part of the Contractor’s approved work schedule and is the Contractor’s responsibility to provide proper notice. Delays caused by failure to provide notice shall not be considered justification for workday additions or completion date extensions.

On this contract, Section D5 Bridge Painting 2027-1, in Vermilion County, Contract No. 70H78, there will not be any Barrier-to-Barrier width minus 18 inches less than 17’-6”, therefore no width restriction signage will be necessary. The actual width restriction to be reported will be agreed upon by the Contractor and the Engineer. The Contractor shall notify the Resident Engineer a minimum of 21 days prior to the width restriction for reporting purposes.

The 21-day notification and reporting procedures will not be measured for payment.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION

Changeable Message Signs shall be placed seven (7) to ten (10) days prior to the beginning of construction to inform the public of upcoming work. Changeable Message Signs shall be placed in advance of the project site at locations to be determined by the Engineer. Changeable Message Signs providing advanced notice shall be utilized at locations within this contract in conjunction with the “Traffic Control Summary” plan sheet schedule provided in the plans or as directed by the Engineer. Ten (10) days advance notice shall be given at the road closure locations: Location #1 & #2 (G-Street), Location #3 & #4 (Fairfield Ave), and Location #8 (14th Street).

Changeable Message Signs used for advanced public notification shall be paid for at the contract unit price per CALENDAR DAY for CHANGEABLE MESSAGE SIGN. Any portion of one calendar day during which the sign is operated as directed by the Engineer shall be paid as one full calendar day.

When portable changeable message signs are shown on Traffic Control and Protection Standards, this work will not be paid for separately, but shall be considered as included in the cost of the Standard.
