TRAFFIC REGULATIONS 01 5500-4 3.01 DIVERTING PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC A. Whenever construction operations obstruct the flow of pedestrian traffic or present a hazard to pedestrians, the Contractor shall take appropriate action to protect and separate pedestrians from the work area and to direct pedestrians to alternate routes. B. Requests to close a sidewalk in the middle of the block are generally not accepted because this results in pedestrians having to walk around the work site, usually out into the street, to continue down the sidewalk. C. Such action may include placement of barricades between pedestrians and work areas, placement of warning signs, and provision of personnel as required to protect pedestrians as conditions warrant. Contractors may also route pedestrians into the parking strip provided that a temporary walkway with adequate protection is set up. 3.02 DIVERTING BICYCLE TRAFFIC A. Whenever construction operations obstruct the flow of bicycle traffic or present a hazard to bicyclists, the Contractor shall take appropriate action to protect bicyclists and, if necessary, to direct bicyclists to alternate routes. B. Contractor shall maintain all existing bike paths and bike lanes. 1. With the closure of any on off-street bike path, Contractor shall provide an alternate route for bicyclists either by use of an alternate paved path or a temporary bike lane on the street. 2. Any bike lane that is effectively narrowed below 5 feet is considered a bike lane closure. Contractor shall provide additional bike signs such as “Bicycles Allowed Use of Full Lane” or “Bicycle Route Detour” signs be posted as part of the conditions of the permit. C. If a designated bicycle route is affected during construction, the Contractor shall post a ““Bicycles Allowed Use of Full Lane” (R4-11) sign at the beginning of the block. 3.03 DIVERTING VEHICULAR TRAFFIC A. Whenever construction operations obstruct the flow of vehicular traffic or present a hazard to vehicles operating in the vicinity of construction operations, the Contractor shall take appropriate action to warn, detour and otherwise protect approaching drivers and vehicles. 3.04 TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES A.
