3. Follow the manufacturer’s temperature restriction recommendations for tape and durable paint.
4. For all pavement markings, ensure the pavement surface is dry and free from dirt, dust, oil, curing compound, and other contaminates which may interfere with markings properly bonding to the surface. Ensure the clean surface is at least 1 inch wider than the anticipated marking. Shoot an air blast on the pavement surface immediately prior to placing the new marking. The air blast is not intended to remove large amounts of dust, but only a very small amount of residue that might be left from the removal and cleaning operation.
5. Ensure the following for all painted and taped pavement markings:
· Uniform thickness,
· Uniform distribution of glass beads throughout the line width,
· Line widths as specified, with a tolerance of ± 1/4 inch for 4 inch lines and ± 1/2 inch for wider lines,
· Symbols and Legends are visually proportional to contract documents with an out-to-out tolerance of ± 6 inches, and
· Markings have sharp edges and cutoffs at the ends.
6. For tape products, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for surface dryness, primers, adhesives, and other surface preparation requirements. Unless specified otherwise by the tape manufacturer, meet the following test for determining surface dryness before applying the tape:
a. In an area of direct sunlight where the tape will be applied, place an 18 inch by 18 inch piece of polyethylene (a green or black garbage bag may be used). There should not be any holes or tears in the polyethylene.
b. Tape down all the edges of the polyethylene sheet to seal all the edges and not allow any air movement to get under the polyethylene.
c. Firmly tamp the tape using the tamper cart or by foot tamping.
d. Allow 20 - 25 minutes for the polyethylene to be exposed to the direct sunlight.
e. Remove the polyethylene from the road surface. If no moisture is present on the underside of the polyethylene or on the road surface, the tape can be applied.
f. If any moisture is present, allow another hour to pass and repeat the test until no moisture is found.
Apply the provisions of Section 2528 to traffic control for removing and placing painted and taped pavement markings, along with the following additional requirements:
1. Place traffic control devices on the roadway before removal operations have commenced. Leave traffic control devices in place through the completed curing time of the newly applied pavement markings.
2. Do not close any longer length of lane than can be adequately removed and replace in a single working day.
3. For painted pavement markings, do not remove traffic control devices until the newly applied pavement markings are tack free.
C. Removal of Pavement Markings.
1. Promptly remove, on the same day new lines are placed, all existing pavement markings in the newly marked traffic lanes that are confusing, conflicting, or misleading to traffic. The Engineer may designate other pavement markings for removal to maximize the effectiveness of the traffic control plan.
2. Upon completion of the project, remove all new pavement markings which are applied according to this specification and would change the color or placement of existing standard pavement markings. Removal may also be required during progress of the work if lines that are no longer needed cause confusion in traffic delineation.
3. Remove existing painted pavement markings so that 90% or more of the pavement is visible. Tightly adhering markings may remain in the bottom of the tining and other depressions on the pavement surface but shall not be visible to the motorist during daytime or night time. Remove tape markings according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Ensure removal processes do not cause functional damage to the transverse or longitudinal joint sealant materials.
4. Conduct pavement marking removal operations in a manner so that the finished pavement surface is not damaged or left in a pattern that may mislead or misdirect the motorist. When the operations are completed, power broom the pavement surface. Remove all marking removal debris from the pavement surface before the pavement is open to public traffic.
5. Perform pavement marking removal to a width no less than the width of the existing or new pavement markings plus 1 inch. When symbols or legends are removed, remove the entire area of the existing symbol or legend; in a rectangular shape so no directionality may be observed from the removed symbol or legend.
6. Removal will not be required prior to being covered by a construction process unless specified in the contract documents. Removal of pavement markings may be by vacuum blasting, vacuum dry grinding, wet grinding, shot blasting, or high pressure water blasting. Open abrasive blasting or dry grinding without containment will not be allowed.
7. In lieu of physical removal, existing pavement markings may be covered by removable, nonreflective, preformed tape that is prequalified according to Materials I.M. 483.06 and meets the requirements of Articles 2527.02, D, 7, and 4183.06, D.
8. Ensure pavement marking removal equipment:
a. Operates without the release of dust,
b. Recovers all removed material, and
c. Includes a waste collection and transfer system and for dry wastes, ensure the system incorporates HEPA methods and equipment.
9. Removal operations may be halted if the process and final result is not acceptable to the Engineer.
10. Remove collected material and dispose of according to applicable Federal and State regulations.
11. Remove temporary delineators, posts, and raised pavement markers when their need no longer exists or when directed by the Engineer.
D. Permanent Pavement Marking.
1. When permanent marking is required, place:
· Center lines, lane lines, no passing zone lines, and edge lines,
· Barrier lines and transverse lines,
· Symbols and legends, and
· Other markings required by the contract documents or by the Engineer.
2. Permanent marking will normally be required, according to this specification, for all projects on which public traffic is allowed during construction.
3. Accurately place all lines to a close tolerance using a guide extending at least 3 feet ahead of the machine. The location of edge lines may be referenced to the pavement edge. The locations of other longitudinal lines may be referenced to accurately located longitudinal joints. Where such references do not exist or are not reliable, locate the lines as follows:
a. For straight or nearly straight lines, reference the locations to a stringline set between marking line points.
b. For curves, reference the locations to closely spaced marking line points. For sharp curves, a spacing of 10 feet may be required.
c. Other equally effective systems the Engineer approves.
E. Temporary Pavement Marking.
The location of temporary pavement marking will be shown in the contract documents or as directed by the Engineer. Temporary pavement marking includes:
1. Diversions.
Temporarily mark roadways as follows:
a. Mark the traffic lane or roadway for traffic that is not diverted with a continuous yellow inside edge line in the approach taper, continuing as a no passing zone line through the diversion along the existing lane line.
b. For traffic that is to be diverted:
1) Place a continuous yellow line as a left edge line through both crossovers, continuing as a no passing zone line through the diversion.
2) Place a white edge line on the right pavement edge through the diversion and both crossovers.
2. On Site Detours.
a. Mark on site detours for two way traffic with two continuous no passing zone lines near the center of the roadway and two continuous white edge lines, one at each pavement edge.
b. Mark on site detours for one lane traffic with two continuous white edge lines, one at each pavement edge.
3. Marking Changes Resulting from Stage Construction.
On all sections of Primary Road open to traffic during construction activities, place center lines, lane lines, no passing zone lines, and edge lines necessary for the construction stage as shown in the contract documents or as directed by the Engineer.
4. Temporary Delineators.
Erect temporary delineators (when required) as shown in the contract documents. Temporary delineators will usually be single, white reflectors which are to be placed:
· 2 feet beyond the outside edge of the shoulder, and
· 4 feet above the edge of the pavement on delineator posts.
5. Raised Pavement Markers.
a. Place raised pavement markers parallel to the line being marked at that location. Place according to the manufacturer's recommendations, subject to the Engineer’s approval.
b. For pavement crossovers, supplement the white and yellow edge line with raised pavement markers, spaced at 10 feet on center, from the beginning of the lane reduction taper through the reverse curves of the crossover.
F. Markings Obliterated during Construction.
1. On sections of pavement open to traffic, place pavement markings where operations have obliterated existing markings.
2. On Primary and Interstate highways, replace pavement markings before the lane or road is opened to traffic in the following situations:
a. Multi-Lane Roads:
1) Divided.
a) Lane lines obliterated for 50 feet or more.
b) Edge lines obliterated for 50 feet or more.
2) Undivided (Three or More Lanes) or Road with Continuous Two-Way Left-Turn Lane.
a) Lane lines obliterated for 50 feet or more.
b) Edge lines obliterated for 50 feet or more.
c) Center lines obliterated for 50 feet or more.
b. Two Lane Roads:
1) Edge lines obliterated for 50 feet or more.
2) Center lines obliterated for 50 feet or more.
3) No Passing Zone lines obliterated.
3. On other roadways, centerline markings obliterated during construction shall be replaced within 3 calendar days after the operation that obliterated the markings has been completed within the entire project limits. Place traffic control as shown in the contract documents.
4. Within 3 working days from the day the pavement and shoulder work are completed for the project, place edge lines that are not required to be placed before the lane or road is opened to traffic. Place remaining pavement markings within 3 working days from the day the road work is completed for the project.
5. Place symbols and legends within 5 working days from the day the road is open to traffic.
6. Pavement markings disturbed by milled rumble strip operations shall be replaced within 5 working days from the day markings are disturbed.
G. Defective Pavement Markings.
1. Markings that are low on initial retroreflectivity up to 20% may, at the discretion of the Engineer, be accepted with a price adjustment.
2. Repair, at no additional cost to the Contracting Authority, all pavement markings which, after application and curing, the Engineer determines to be defective and not in conformance with these specifications. Remove the defective markings completely and clean to the underlying pavement surface according to the requirements of Article 2527.03, C. Remove the defective area plus all adjacent marking material extending 1 foot in any direction. After surface preparation work is complete, finish the repair by reapplying new marking material over the cleaned pavement surface according to the requirements of these specifications.
H. Grooving for Pavement Markings.
1. When specified, place pavement markings in a groove cut into the pavement surface. Dry or wet cut the groove in a single pass, using stacked diamond cutting heads mounted on a floating head with controls capable of providing uniform depth and alignment. If dry cutting, use equipment that is self vacuuming. Use the equipment according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
2. Ensure the groove meets the following specifications:
a. Groove width.
For lines, a minimum of 8 inch width or the marking width plus 1 inch each side of making, whichever is greater, with a tolerance of +/- 0.25 inches. For symbols and legends, extend grooving 1 inch beyond the most extreme edge of the symbol in an allowable pattern as shown in the contract documents. Minimize grooved margin around symbols as determined by the Engineer.
b. Groove depth.
A grooved depth of 0.080 inches +/- 0.010 inches applies to all pavement markings. If a different groove depth is recommended by the pavement marking manufacturer, the Engineer will determine the depth.
c. Groove length.
Full length of marking plus 3 inches minimum grooving transition on either end. Do not use a continuous groove for dash markings. When replacing existing dash markings, start cycle so most of the existing marking is removed with the groove. No additional removal of existing markings is required.
d. Groove position.
Minimum of 2 inches from edge of the longitudinal joint.
e. Finished surface.
The bottom of the groove should have a fine corduroy-like texture. The maximum allowable rise between the high and low points across the width of the groove is 0.010 inch.
f. Groove cleaning.
Vacuum and broom dry cut grooves using a high pressure air blast for the final cleaning. If wet cutting is used, immediately flush the groove with water and recover the removed material. Allow the surface to dry to a visibly dry condition. Ensure the surface to receive the tape is free from dust, dirt, or other contaminates that may interfere with the tape properly bonding.
1. When pavement markings are required, coordinate their application with other construction work and associated traffic control changes.
2. Use wet, retroflective removable tape markings for temporary pavement markings which extend diagonally across a final traffic lane.
3. When the installation of preformed polymer pavement marking material or profiled pavement marking tape is in conjunction with placement of HMA, inlay the tape by positioning it on the HMA prior to the final rolling. Perform the installation of the tape according to the manufacturer's recommendations. If grooving is specified, do not inlay the tape into hot HMA.
4. When pavement markings are placed on newly completed PCC pavements, remove the existing curing compound film from horizontal surfaces in these locations. Curing compound film need not be removed from curbs or other vertical surfaces. Remove the curing compound in a manner that does not damage the underlying PCC pavement.
5. Complete the placement of pavement markings before the lane, road, on-site detour, or diversion is open to traffic.
6. If unavoidable circumstances result in not being able to complete the pavement marking placement or removal specified for that day, provide traffic control until the pavement marking placement or removal work is completed.
Maintain in good condition all pavement markings, symbols and legends, temporary delineators, and raised pavement markers for which the Contractor is responsible. Replace, if necessary, for the period of their intended use. Their condition is subject to review by the Engineer.
