Current through Register Vol. 28, No. 5, November 1, 2024

Section 5G.02 - Applications

Guidance:

01 Planned work phasing and sequencing should be the basis for the use of traffic control devices for temporary traffic control zones. Part 6 should be consulted for specific traffic control requirements and examples where construction or maintenance work is planned.

Support:

02 Maintenance activities might not require extensive temporary traffic control if the traffic volumes and speeds are low.

Option:

03 The traffic applications shown in Figures 6H-1, 6H-10, 6H-11, 6H-13, 6H-15, 6H-16, and 6H-18 of Part 6 are among those that may be used on low-volume roads.

Support:

04 Table 6H-3 provides distances for the advance placement of the traffic control devices shown in the typical applications.

Option:

05 For low-volume roadways with speeds of 30 miles per hour or less, a minimum distance of 100 feet may be used for the advance placement distance and the distance between signs shown in the typical applications.

06 For temporary traffic control zones on low-volume roads that require flaggers, a single flagger may be adequate if the flagger is visible to approaching traffic from all appropriate directions.
