work called for by this Agreement. All work in progress will become the property of the
DEPARTMENT and will be turned over promptly by the AGENCY.

Engineer's approval of the alternate TCP does not relieve the Contractor of sole
responsibility for all utility impacts, costs, delays or damages, whether direct or indirect,
resulting from Contractor initiated changes in the design or construction activities from those in
the original Contract Specifications, Design Plans (including TCPs) or other Contract Documents
and which effect a change in utility work different from that shown in the Utility Plans, joint
project agreements or utility relocation schedules.
The Department reserves the right to reject any alternative TCP. Obtain the Engineer's
written approval before beginning work using an alternate TCP. The Engineer's written approval
is required for all modifications to the TCP. The Engineer will only allow changes to the TCP in
an emergency without the proper documentation.
102-5 Traffic Control.
102-5.1 Standards: FDOT Standard Plans are the minimum standards for the use in the
development of all TCPs. The MUTCD, Part VI is the minimum national standard for traffic
control for highway construction, maintenance, and utility operations. Follow the basic principles
and minimum standards contained in these documents for the design, application, installation,
maintenance, and removal of all traffic control devices, warning devices and barriers which are
necessary to protect the public and workers from hazards within the project limits.
102-5.2 Maintenance of Roadway Surfaces: Maintain all lanes that are being used for
the MOT, including those on detours and temporary facilities, under all weather conditions. Keep
the lanes reasonably free of dust, potholes and rutting. Provide the lanes with the drainage
facilities necessary to maintain a smooth riding surface under all weather conditions.
102-5.3 Number of Traffic Lanes: Maintain one lane of traffic in each direction.
Maintain two lanes of traffic in each direction at existing four (or more) lane cross roads, where
necessary to avoid undue traffic congestion. Construct each lane used for MOT at least as wide
as the traffic lanes existing in the area before commencement of construction. Do not allow
traffic control and warning devices to encroach on lanes used for MOT.
The Engineer may allow the Contractor to restrict traffic to one-way operation for
short periods of time provided that the Contractor employs adequate means of traffic control and
does not unreasonably delay traffic. When a construction activity requires restricting traffic to
one-way operations, locate the flaggers within view of each other when possible. When visual
contact between flaggers is not possible, equip them with 2 -way radios, official, or pilot vehicles,
or use traffic signals.
102-5.4 Crossings and Intersections: Provide and maintain adequate accommodations
for intersecting and crossing traffic. Do not block or unduly restrict any median opening, road or
street crossing the project unless approved by the Engineer. Before beginning any construction,
submit to the Engineer the names and phone numbers of persons that can be contacted when
signal operation malfunctions.
102-5.5 Access for Residences and Businesses: Provide continuous access to all
residences and all places of business.

use a single lane and in other situations as required. All flaggers must meet the personnel
qualifications specified in Section 105.
102-5.8 Conflicting Pavement Markings: Where the lane use or where normal vehicle
or pedestrian paths are altered during construction, remove all pavement markings (paint, tape,
thermoplastic, raised pavement markers, etc.) that will conflict with the adjusted vehicle or
pedestrian paths. Use of paint to cover conflicting pavement markings is prohibited. Remove
conflicting pavement markings using a method that will not damage the surface texture of the
pavement and which will eliminate the previous marking pattern regardless of weather and light
conditions.
Remove all pavement markings that will be in conflict with "next phase of
operation" vehicle pedestrian paths as described above, before opening to vehicle traffic or use
by pedestrians.

Rules and Regulations in effect at the time of the disposal. Cost involved with the disposal of
debris will be included in the contract unit price per mile of mechanized (mechanical) sweeping.
110-31.8 Quality.
Pick up and remove from the areas to be swept, any obstacle such as wood, tires, cans,
etc. that can not be picked -up by the sweeper to include areas under guardrail on paved
shoulders. Remove all items such as newspapers, magazines, large boxes, etc. that would be torn,
ripped, or scattered by the sweeper and result in an objectionable appearance.
Completed work will be clean and free of all accumulated debris immediately after
sweeping, as determined by the Engineer.
Areas determined unsatisfactory by the Engineer will be re -swept to the satisfaction of
the Engineer within the time specified, at no additional cost to the Department.
110-31.9 Method of Measurement.
The quantities to be paid for under this Section will be the number of miles completed
and accepted measured longitudinally to the travel lane to the nearest one hundredth of a mile.
A second unit of measurement will be required from the Contractor. The cubic yards of material
picked up, will be reported to the inspector for each sweeping cycle completed. If the contract is
for more than one county, the number of cubic yards picked up will be prorated by county based
on the number of miles swept in each county.
The width will be sufficient to cover the entire width of curb and gutters, valley gutters,
bridge decks and curbs, inside and outside highway interchange ramps (with paved shoulders
greater than 12 inches in width, outside and median paved shoulders, concrete barriers, gore
areas, toll plazas (when applicable), and other designated sites. Areas requiring more than one
sweeping pass to sufficiently remove the debris will not be compensated twice.
110-31.10 Basis of Payment.
Payment will be full compensation for furnishing all equipment, materials, labor, and
incidentals necessary to complete all sweeping operations, including hand work, as specified.
