About this file

This is a technical specification document prepared by the City of Pittsburgh Department of Mobility and Infrastructure, Traffic Engineering Division, dated October 26, 2020, in support of a Traffic Calming contract opportunity solicited by the City of Pittsburgh Office of Management and Budget on behalf of the Department of Mobility and Infrastructure. The document provides detailed engineering plans and specifications for speed table installation, including plan views, cross-sectional details, and dimensional requirements. Speed tables are to be constructed with a 3-inch flat section, 22-foot length, and 7-inch height with sealed asphalt approaches. The specifications include requirements for curb details in both standard and wedge configurations, with 1.5-inch minimum milling of existing asphalt. The document establishes pavement marking standards requiring 12-inch white markings at the leading edge of each speed table, spaced 100 feet apart on typical approaches, along with advanced warning signage specifications.

The specification document addresses traffic safety signage and pavement marking requirements integral to speed table implementation. Warning signs include W17-1 (30"x30") and W16-7P (24"x12") configurations positioned at appropriate intervals, with sign B recommended on either approach when multiple speed tables are installed in series. The design accommodates typical two-approach installations with symmetrical specifications. The document notes that advanced warning pavement markings are optional, though leading edge speed table pavement markings are mandatory for each installation. No pricing, quantities, or contract terms are specified within this technical document, which serves as the design standard for bidders responding to the Traffic Calming solicitation.
