Common use of Traffic Control Plan, Detours, Sequence of Construction Clause in Contracts

Traffic Control Plan, Detours, Sequence of Construction. The ENGINEER will prepare Traffic Control Plans (TCP) including TCP typical sections, for the project. The ENGINEER will complete Page 4 of Form 1002. A detailed TCP will be developed in accordance with the latest edition of the TMUTCD. The ENGINEER will implement the current Barricade and Construction (BC) standards and TCP standards as applicable. The ENGINEER will interface and coordinate phases of work, including the TCP, with adjacent Engineers. The ENGINEER will: 1. Provide a written narrative of the construction sequencing and work activities per phase and determine the existing and proposed traffic control devices (regulatory signs, warning signs, guide signs, route markers, construction pavement markings, barricades, flag personnel, temporary traffic signals, etc.) to be used to handle traffic during each construction sequence. The ENGINEER will show proposed traffic control devices at grade intersections during each construction phase (stop signs, flagperson, signals, etc.). The ENGINEER will show temporary roadways, ramps, structures, and detours required to maintain lane continuity throughout the construction phasing. If temporary shoring is required, prepare layouts and show the limits on the applicable TCP. 2. Develop each TCP to provide continuous, safe access to each adjacent property during all phases of construction and to preserve existing access. The ENGINEER will notify the COUNTY in the event existing access will be eliminated, and will receive approval from the COUNTY prior to any elimination of existing access.
