Document Summary

This is the NJDOT (New Jersey Department of Transportation) Snow Plowing Guide, which establishes standardized operational procedures for snow removal services on New Jersey roadways. The document provides technical guidance for winter operations and does not represent a formal contract award between specific parties, but rather serves as an internal operational manual for the state agency.

The guide contains six figures detailing plowing standards for various highway configurations: two-lane, two-direction highways; three-lane, two-direction highways; four-lane undivided highways; multi-lane divided highways with raised medians and no drainage; multi-lane divided highways with depressed medians and drainage; and jughandles. Additionally, the guide includes standards for switch-back curve ramps. Each configuration specifies truck positioning, spacing intervals (typically 100-500 feet between trucks), overlap requirements (approximately 2 feet), and directional snow placement procedures. The guide emphasizes operational efficiency and complete road clearance by designating sequential truck assignments to eliminate snow from shoulders to gutterlines, with provisions for additional trucks on more complex highway systems. No pricing, contract amounts, option periods, or vendor information is specified in this operational guidance document.
