RE REQUI UIRE REMENTS F FOR R R ROUT UTINE & PLANN NNED W ED WORK

  • Activities & their impacts to

traffic must be considered prior to starting the work.

  • Restriction requirements

depend the Three A ee Activit ity Categ egories ies identified in the Maintenance Mobility Requirements Document.

  • Restriction notifications

require at least 14 or 28 days (depending on the Activity).

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Restriction Notification Requirements

15

Act ctivity 1 1 Requirements:

For rout utine a and nd pla lanned work, no notification is s not requir ired if f all o

  • f

f the followin ing g ar are met:

1. 1. For i int nters rstate & & multi-lane d e div ivid ided ed h hig ighways: If, after moving barriers/equipment, the minimum horizontal clear distance is 22 feet. 2. Fo For two wo-lane or a all ll other i indi dividu dual h highways: If, after moving barriers/equipment, the minimum horizontal clear distance is 19 feet. 3. Able to accommodate all unannounced loads by waving them through the work zone.* 4. No lane shifts/lane closures under structures

(which could result in a vertical clearance reduction, or weight restriction on certain bridges)

5. No ramp closures. 6. No weight restrictions.

*”Waved through” defined on next slide
slide-16
SLIDE 16

Restriction Notification Requirements

16

“Waved t through” h” means… s…

“for width, length, or weight the work equipment and traffic control devices can be moved (and there is an understanding that it would be) if a permitted vehicle comes to the work zone to provide the required clear distance or the required clear distance was still
  • available. This may result in a slight delay to the oversized load or
to traffic behind the load. IT IS OKAY TO HAVE A SMALL DELAY AS LONG AS YOU CAN GET THE LOAD THROUGH THE WORK ZONE.”

Mi Minim imum width requi uirement nts for waving ng t throug ugh:

22 feet of clear distance on the interstates & 19 feet clear distance on other highways. Contact the Mobility Team if you are unable to meet this requirement, as an exception may be granted on restricted routes.

Why hy 14 d 4 days ys?

Singl ngle-Trip O p Over er-Dim imension sion Permit Q it Queue

  • STPs are good for one or multiple trips in a 10-day timeframe,

and are issued up to 4 days in advance.

  • They are route-specific, and carriers are not allowed to deviate.
  • CCD Over-Dimension Permit Analysts process a queue of STPs.

14 days are needed to “clear” the queue of permits affected by a restriction.

  • The Mobility

Team cannot accept less than 14 day notice, unless it’s an emergency.

Why hy 28 d 28 days ys?

Annual O l Over er-dim imensio sion P Permit H it Holder N Notif tific icatio ation

  • Annual permit holders are allowed unlimited trips. We

generally do not know exactly when or where those trips will take place.

  • The Mobility Team needs enough time (28 days) to

review the restriction and issue trucking advisories and notification letters. For example:

slide-21
SLIDE 21 21

Hori rizontal C l Cle learance nce & & Lo Load Restri rict ctions

The Mobility Team applies a buffer to the available horizontal width to determine the load restriction through the work zone:

The buffer space depends on if the work zone is on a tangent and/or curve.

Temporary Horizontal Restrictions

slide-22
SLIDE 22 22

 Size & weight restrictions.  Overhead obstructions  Safe turning movements & off tracking.  Emergency services response times.  Can hazardous material loads use the route?  Are there other projects on the proposed detour that will restrict traffic?  Are other projects using the existing route as a detour?

Detours

Issu ssues t to C

  • Check:

A detour s shoul uld b be provided for f r full clo ull closures. .

Conta tact t t the M Mobil ilit ity T Team am early ly to e ensure ure t the detour c ur can h n hand ndle all traf affic ic usi using the route t to b be closed, includ uding ng frei eight & & over er-dim imensio sion u units. its.

Highway Restriction Notification Form

(ODOT Form# 734-2357)

23
  • Used to submit restriction notifications electronically

to the Mobility Team.

  • Submitted by District Managers or their designees
  • Available at:
https://www.oregontruckingonline.com/cf/MCAD/pubMetaEntry/restriction/
slide-24
SLIDE 24

Updating Restrictions

24

Up Updat date the restric ictio ion n notice ice i if necessary.

  • If work is delayed (e.g. weather), update the

restriction to reflect the new start time/date.

  • We want to avoid showing a restriction is in effect,

when work is actually not taking place.

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Lifting Restrictions

25

Don’t f forget t to

  • Restriction notices must be lifted as soon as the

related work is complete.

  • The Mobility Team cannot lift a restriction, unless

requested by the person who submitted or reviewed the form.

  • Unless lifted, a restriction will remain published

and the trucking industry/public will not be aware.
