b.Flexible Oiling Pavement Markers - Install flexible oiling pavement markers just before applying asphalt for chip seals, sand seals, and oil mats. Remove marker c overs before reopening the Roadway to traffic. If a segment of Roadway is not completed when the Roadway is reopened to traffic, install another set of markers just before the next application of asphalt.
c.Flex ible Overlay Pavement Markers - Install flexible overlay pavement markers as follows: On surfaces that do not require chip seals, sand seals, and oil mats. On underlying surfaces that temporarily carry traffic. When temporary striping is determined as not practicable by the Engineer. Install the pavement markers before reopening the Roadway to traffic. Remove the markers on Pavement Base Courses before placing the next surface layer.
d.Exi sting Pavement Marker Removal - Remove and dispose of existing raised or recessed pavement markers as needed for stage construction, or as directed. Remove pavement markers from permanent Pavement wearing Courses without damaging the Roadway surface, and ensure the surface texture remains similar to that of the surrounding area. Make the surface dull and non - reflective. Remove adhesive from the Pavement surface using a method that will not damage the Pavement surface.
00225.41 Temporary Tape - Replace damaged or missing tape. Remove temporary tape without
damaging the Roadway surface. Insta ll temporary tape as shown and as follows:
a.Temporary Removable Tape - Install temporary removable tape on existing surfaces or Pavement wearing Courses as shown, or as directed. When staging across new bridge deck surfaces, use temporary removable t ape. Remove the temporary removable tape before placing subsequent surfaces and after installing permanent pavement markings.
b.Temporary Non -Removable Tape - Install non-removable tape on Base Courses as shown or as directed.
c.Temporary Non -Refl ective Tape - Install non-reflective tape over durable pavement markings to be retained as shown or directed.
00225.42 Tempora ry Pavement Markings - Before opening Roadways to traffic , unless otherwise
specified in 00224.46, apply temporary pavement markings on Pavement Base Courses, wearing Courses, and new bridge deck surfaces at locations shown, or as directed. Immediately remove all unacceptable pavement markings and replace with acceptable markings before opening Roadways to traffic, at no additional cost to the Agency. Temporary pavement markings may be placed using paint, t emporary tape, or pavement markers, as follows: 00225.42 191 (a) Base Courses - On Pavement Base Courses, use paint, temporary tape, or pavement markers for temporary pavement markings, as shown in the Plans or in the TCP. For painted st riping, apply 4-inch wide by 10-foot long stripes with 30-foot gaps for skip li ne striping. Apply 4-inch wide, continuous stripes for solid line striping. Apply bead binder at a thickness of 15 mils wet, equivalent to 17 gallons per mile for a 4 inch wide solid line. A pply glass beads at a rate of 5 pounds per gallon of paint. Before opening a Traffic Lane on a Base Course adjacent to temporary barrier that is located on the right -hand side of the Traffic Lane, place right -hand edge line markings using paint or a continuous removable tape, or as directed. Before opening a Traffic Lane adjacent to temporary barrier that is located on the left hand side of the Traffic Lane, place left hand edge line markings using paint, a continuous strip of temporary removable t ape, pavement markers spaced 10 feet apart, or as directed.
b.Wearing Course - For skip line or solid line markings on the Pavement wearing Course, use paint, temporary removable tape, or pavement markers, as follows: For left hand solid lines and s kip lin es striping, use temporary removable tape or pavement markers. For right -hand solid edge line markings, use paint or a continuous strip of temporary removable tape. Where inlaid permanent pavement markings are to be placed, use paint for temporary pavement markings. Where durable permanent pavement markings are to be placed, apply temporary line markings using painted striping until durable permanent pavement marki ngs can be applied according to 00225.42(d). Before opening a Traffic Lane on a wearing Cours e adjacent to temporary barrier that is located on the right -hand side of the Traffic Lane, place right -hand solid edge line markings using a continuous strip of temporary removable tape, or as directed. Before opening a Traffic Lane on a wearing Course adjacent to temporary barrier that is located on the left -hand side of the Traffic Lane, place left -hand solid edge line markings using a continuous strip of temporary removable tape, with pavement markers spaced 10 feet apart, or as directed.
c.New Bri dge Deck Surfaces - For skip line or solid line striping on new bridge deck surfaces use temporary removable tape for temporary pavement markings as shown or as directed.
d.Durabl e Permanent Pavement Markings - On Pavement wearing Courses where durable permanent pavement markings are to be placed, apply temporary painted striping until durable permanent pavement markings can be applied, unless otherwise directed. Reduce the application rate of the paint to a thickness of 10 mils wet, equivalent to 12 gallons per mile for a 4 inch wide solid stripe. Apply ref lective elements at a rate of 5 pounds per gallon of paint. Only one application is required. Place temporary painted striping directly adjacent to the final location of the durable permanent pave ment markings. Place the temporary painted striping so the durable permanent pavement markings can be aligned with existing striping at the end of the project limits. Removal of the temporary painted striping is not required, if aligned as described in t his Subsection. When scheduled installation of durable permanent pavement markings will ex ceed, or will likely exceed, 28 Calendar Days after placement of the wearing surface, furnish and place temporary 00225.43 192 painted striping at the standard rate stated in 00225.42(a). Removal of this striping is not required if aligned as described in this Subsection.
00225.43 Pavement Legends and Bars - Before opening Roadways to traffic, unless otherwise
allowed, apply temporary pavement legends and bars on Pavement Base Courses at locations designated. Apply b ead binder at a thickness of 15 mils wet and glass beads at a rate of 5 pounds per gallon of paint.
00225.44 Tempo rary Transverse Rumble Strips - Place and maintain temporary transverse
rumble strips across the travel lane as shown or directed. Do not place rumble strips across surfaces used by bicycles.
00225.45 Pavement Marking Removal - Remove striping, durable markings, legends, and bars
according to the following: Coordinate all removal Work with construction activities. Remove pavement markings on Pavement Base Courses when a change in strip ing is necessary and when the Pavement will not be covered with an additional Base Course. Remove striping and pavement markers on the wearing Course so that the permanent markings can be applied. Remove all remaining striping and pavement markers from the wearing Course after the permanent markings have been applied, as directed. Use vacuum shrouded Equipment or other equally effective containment procedures to contain and collect all removed pavement marking materials and spent abrasi ve, and dispose of according to 00290.20. Remove legends so that the legend outline is not recognizable on the Pavement surface. Unless otherwise approved, remove pavement markings during the same day the traffic shift is accomplished or new pavement markings are applied. Do not use paint or asphalt to cover existing stripes. Do not remove more than 1/8 inch of Pavement during pavement marking removal. Do not use grinding to remove stripes, durable markings, legends, or bars from the wearing Course or existing surfaces, unless the area will be paved over, obliterated, or the pavement markings will be replaced to match the original striping configuration. Repair all damage resulting from pavement marking removal to the Engineer's satisfaction at no additional cost to the Agency . Maintenance
00225.60 Tempor ary Traffic Pavement Markings - Temporary pavement markings shall remain in
place until the permanent markings are complete. Replace missing or damaged temporary markings when directed by the Engineer. On the final Pavement wearing Course and along final alignment, place per manent markings a maximum of 28 Calendar Days after placing temporary pavement markings, or as directed. If permanent pavement markings are not placed within 28 Calendar Days after placing temporary pavement markings, missing or damaged temporary pavement markings on wearing Course and along final alignment shall be replaced at no additional cost to the Agency, unless otherwise directed. When removing damaged delineation from the Pavement surface, remo ve adhesives, hardware, damaged delineation fragments or other materials using a method that will not damage the Pavement surface. Repair any damaged surfaces to the Engineer's satisfaction at no additional cost to the Agency. 00225.80
00225.64 Temporary Transverse Rumble Strips - Maintain, reposition, and replace temporary
transverse rumble strips as shown or directed. Measurement
00225.80 Measurement - The quantities of Work performed under this Section will be measured
according to the following. Measurement of temporary pavement markings will include missing or damaged temporary pavement markings replaced according to 00225.60 or as directed by the Engineer. The quantities for Work Zone Traffic Control Measures will be limited to the following, unless otherwise specified: The initial installation of quantities necessary to complete the Project based on the Contract Schedule of Items. The initial installation of additional TCD and TCM that the Engineer and Contractor agree are necessary to ensure a safe Work Zone. The replacement of TCD and TCM damaged by Public Traffic and replaced by the Contractor.
a.Unit Basis - Temporary pavement legends will be measured on the unit basis, by actual count.
b.Length Basis
1.Temporary Tape - Temporary tape will be measured on the length basis, by measuring the actual length of the tape complete and in place. No adjustment for tape width will be made.
2.Striping - Painted temporary striping will be measured on the length basis determined by one of the following methods:
a.Count Method - The number of 4 inch wide skip stripes will be counted and multiplied by the “standard length”. For purposes of this Subsection a “standard length” for a skip stripe (10.0 feet) is defined in 00225.42(a).
b.Length Method - Measurement will be the actual length of 4 inch wide stripe complete and in place. When measuring the actual length of 4 inch wide skip stripe, the skip interval will not be included in the measurement. The length of skip stripe may be determined by dividing the total length by 4.0. Temporary striping required for durable permanent pavement marking installation will be included in the measurement. Temporary striping will be measured on the length basis, of lines based on a nominal width of 4 inches. If the Plans call for, or the Engineer requires, stripes other than nominal 4 inch width, the measurement will be adjusted by converting to an equivalent length of a nominal 4 inch wide stripe.
3.Temporary Transverse Rumble Strips - Temporary transverse rumble strips will be measured on the length basis, determined by measuring the actual length of temporary transverse rumble strips complete and in place.
4.Stripe Removal - Stripe removal for stage construction will be measured on the length basis, determined by measuring the overall length of 4 inch line removed. The quantity of stripe 00225.90 removal will be the computed length of lines removed based on a nominal width of 4 inches. For computation purposes, the following apply: • The width of a line is the normal standard line width applied during original placement of solid no-passing lines, broken (skip) lines, edge lines, and any other lines normally 4 inches wide. • The length of continuous lines is length of the line. • The length of broken (skip) stripes is the standard length of a skip line normally painted during original placement of the lines 10.0 feet of paint per 40 feet of Roadway length. Skip stripes may be counted. The length of standard 8-inch or 12-inch wide stripes will be adjusted by converting to equivalent length of 4-inch width line. No conversion or adjustment will be allowed for lines that are wider or longer due to improper placement or retracing deviations.
c.Area Basis
1.Temporary Pavement Bars - Temporary pavement bars will be measured on the area basis, for each stop bar and crosswalk bar.
2.Legend and Bar Removal - Pavement legend removal and bar removal for stage construction will be measured on the area basis, of each legend and bar removed and will be the nominal area determined by multiplying the width times the length of the legend or bar. No deductions will be made for corners or irregular shapes. Payment
