About this file
This is a Special Provisions document for Section 02890 outlining traffic sign removal and stacking work requirements for the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) Somerville Union Square Transit Signal Priority Project (IFB 115-26). The work scope consists of removing and stacking existing regulatory, warning, and directional signs along with their supports. Signs and attached hardware shall be carefully dismantled from their supports, with existing foundations excavated to a minimum depth of 6 inches below ground level. Removed signs and supports are to be temporarily stacked in an on-site stockpile for the Town/Owner's removal, while signs not required by the Town shall be removed and discarded off-site by the Contractor. When signs are attached to existing light poles, utility poles, or traffic poles, only the sign and attached hardware require removal. The measurement and payment basis is calculated on a per-each unit basis for individual signs removed.
Payment under Item 874.4 shall be made at the contract unit price per each sign and shall provide full compensation for all dismantling, loading, transporting, and stacking operations, as well as excavation and disposal of existing foundations, supply and placement of compacted gravel backfill where foundations and posts are removed, and patching of the existing surface to match existing conditions. The unit price shall be deemed inclusive of all labor, materials, and incidentals required to complete the work as shown on the plans and as directed by the Engineer.
