TRANSPORTATION AGENCY FOR MONTEREY COUNTY Memorandum | |
| | | | | | | | | To: | Technical Advisory Committee | | From: | Doug Bilse, Principal Engineer | | Meeting Date: | November 1, 2018 | | Subject: | Coordination with Special Events to Minimize Construction Conflicts |
| |
| | | | | | | | | RECOMMENDED ACTION: | Coordination with special events to minimize construction conflicts for 2019 - 2020:
- RECEIVE second draft list of special events for 2019 - 2020;
- REQUEST that agencies provide updates to the list; and
- REQUEST that the updated list be included in project traffic control specifications to help avoid construction impacts.
|
| |
| | | | | | | | | SUMMARY: | Multiple regional and local projects are expected to begin construction in the next two years. This SECOND DRAFT LIST of major special event dates and corresponding set-up dates for all agencies will aid in scheduling construction detours, ramp closures, arterial street closures, and night/weekend work requirements to avoid construction conflicts and make these events successful. |
| |
| | | | | | | | | FINANCIAL IMPACT: | | No direct financial impact. |
| |
| | | | | | | | | DISCUSSION: | Each agency is requested to review the list and provide updates. The final list will be distributed to Caltrans as well as to local agencies as a tool to develop traffic control special provisions in major project specifications. As an example, a project that requires a long term detour onto Highway 1 may have severe congestion implications during Monterey Car week. This spreadsheet tool helps the designer select specific "no Build" dates to insert into the project specifications, so that a contractor bidding on the construction will not incur lost work days or unexpected mobilizations costs.
