Pub 213 (04-10) PUBLICTION 213 (67 P CODE, CHPTE 212)
pplication Publication 213 applies to contractors; utilities; Federal, State, county, township and municipal governments; and others performing applicable construction, maintenance, emergency or utility/permit work on highways or so closely adjacent to a highway that workers, equipment or materials encroach on the highway or interfere with the normal movement of traffic. The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) defines the term "temporary traffic control" as: "Temporary Traffic Control Zone - an area of a highway where road user conditions are changed because of a work zone or incident by the use of temporary traffic control devices, flaggers, uniformed law enforcement officers, or other authorized personnel." The traffic control schemes shown in this publication are normally applicable for both urban and rural areas. Since it is not practical to provide detailed guidelines for all the situations that may conceivably arise, applications are presented for only the most common situations. These are minimum desirable applications for normal situations, and additional protection may be needed when special complexities or potential hazards prevail. The protection prescribed for each situation shall be consistent with the general provisions of Title 67 Pa. Code, Chapter 212, Official Traffic Control Devices and the national Manual On Uniform Traffic Control Devices as issued by the Federal Highway dministration and should be based on common sense; engineering judgment; the speed and volume of traffic; the duration of the operation; the exposure to potential hazards; the physical features of the highway including horizontal alignment, vertical alignment and the presence of intersections and driveways; and other important factors.

Traffic Control Plans may deviate from the typical applications shown in this publication to allow for conditions and requirements of a particular site or jurisdiction. 4. The three categories for work duration of temporary traffic control are: a. Short-Term Stationary Operation - ork that occupies a location up to 24 hours. b. Long-Term Stationary Operation - ork that occupies a location more than 24 hours. c. Mobile Operation - ork that moves intermittently or continuously. 5. The EMEGENCY HED (25-1), SUVEY CE (21-6), MOING NEXT ( ) MILES (21-14) and BIDGE INSPECTION HED (21-11) signs may be used as an alternate to the OD OK HED sign (20-1) or OD OK NEXT ( ) MILES (G20-1) where appropriate. 6. The needs and control of all road users through the work zone (including motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians and persons with disabilities in accordance with the mericans with Disabilities ct of 1990) shall be an essential part of highway construction, utility work, maintenance operations, and the management of traffic incidents. 7. Sign sheeting shall be of an approved type and listed in Publication 35 (Bulletin 15). Sheeting for freeways and expressways shall be fluorescent orange. 8. ll warning sign colors shall have orange background and black border and legends unless otherwise specified. 9. ll workers including flaggers shall wear a high-visibility fluorescent orange or yellow-green apparel with retroreflective material that meets the latest NSI/ISE publication entitled merican National Standard for High-Visibility Safety pparel and Headwear for Class 2 risk exposure anytime day or night. Class 3 high-visibility apparel should be considered for additional flagger visibility at night. During inclement weather, high-visibility fluorescent rain gear may be used. If FH amends or modifies their regulation, the amendment will take effect on the date specified by FH. orker - person on foot whose duties place him or her within the right-of-way of a street or highway, such as highway construction and maintenance forces, survey crews, utility crews, responders to incidents within the street or highway right-of-way, and law enforcement personnel when directing traffic, investigating crashes, and handling lane closures, obstructed roadways, and disasters within the right-of-way of a street or highway. Emergency and incident responders and law enforcement personnel within the TTC zone may wear High-Visibility Public Safety Vests that meets the performance requirements of the NSI/SE 207-2006 (see Section 1.11), or equivalent revisions, and labeled as NSI 207-2006, in lieu of NS/ISE 107-2004 apparel. 10. ll flaggers at minimum shall have training as per the most current version of Publication 408, Section 901.3 Flagger Training. 11. For guiderail deflection distances refer to PUB 13M (DM-2) Design Manual 2 in Chapter 12 Table 12.3 (English) Guide ail and Median Barrier Systems page 12-10 and for temporary barrier see ppendix B. 12. second shadow vehicle with a truck mounted attenuator shall be used when directed by the ssistant District Executive for Maintenance for bridge inspection teams while on limited access highway bridges. 13. Orange flags or flashing warning lights may be used in conjunction with signs. PGE 2 OF 113 GENEL NOTES, TBLES ND LEG P
GENEL NOTES (CONTINUED) 14. Traffic Cones shall only be used during short term operations. 15. Definitions: a. Urban Street - type of street normally characterized by relatively low speeds, wide ranges of traffic volumes, narrower lanes, frequent intersections and driveways, significant pedestrian traffic, and more businesses and houses. b. Expressway - divided arterial highway for through traffic with partial control of access and generally with grade separations at major intersections. c. Freeway - limited access highway to which the only means of ingress and egress is by interchange ramps. d. Buffer Space - space clear of equipment, vehicles, workers or materials as shown on figures as distance E. e. oll head Space - Provide a 100 to 250 space between the shadow vehicle and the work space in a closed lane This space shall be clear of equipment, vehicles, materials or workers. f. Shadow vehicle - vehicle positioned in the activity area in the advance of a work vehicle to provide advance information to approaching drivers or protection for the workers or work vehicle. 16. Equipment, vehicle and material storage. (1) Except as indicated in paragraph (2), at the end of the workday, and whenever practical during the workday, based on actual site conditions, equipment, vehicles and material shall be stored a minimum of 30 feet from the edge of the nearest open travel lane or they shall be adequately stored behind a longitudinal (including guiderail) barrier, or more than 2 feet behind the curb. Design Manual 2, Chapter 12, Table 12.3 presents minimum unobstructed distances that shall be maintained behind various guiderail systems and refer to ppendix B for temporary barrier deflection distances. (2) If site conditions prevent equipment, vehicles and material from being stored as indicated in paragraph (1), or if these items are placed for use or operation on or near the highway surface within the work zone, then barricades, drums or other protective devices shall be placed around the equipment, vehicles and material storage site, to warn and protect the traveling public consistent with this publication. (3) orkers are not permitted to park their vehicles within the highway right-of-way in a manner that compromises the safety of workers, pedestrians or the traveling public. 17. Neither work activity nor storage of equipment, vehicles, or material should occur within a buffer space. 18. Guidelines for installation and removal of traffic control setups. (a) equired advance warning signs should be installed first so that protection is provided when channelizing devices are installed near the work area. If work zone signing is necessary for both directions of travel, sign installation should begin with the advance warning sign located furthermost from the work area and on the side of the roadway opposite the work area, sign installation should proceed down the roadway toward the work area. fter the necessary signs are erected on the side of the roadway opposite the work area, sign installation may begin for the other direction of travel, beginning with the sign furthermost from the work area. In the process of installing the work zone signing, existing signs with conflicting messages shall be completely covered, removed or modified. (b) If the work area is such that flagging operations are necessary, the flaggers may begin flagging operations after the advance warning signs are in place. Otherwise, the installation of channelizing devices at the work area can begin after the placement of the advance warning signs. These devices should also be installed in the direction of travel. (c) If available, a shadow vehicle may be placed between approaching traffic and the workers who are installing channelizing devices around the work area. fter channelizing devices are installed, the vehicle may be removed or moved inside the work area and work may begin. (d) fter work is completed, the work zone traffic control scheme may be dismantled. The channelizing devices which surround the work site should be removed first, in reverse order as it was installed (opposite the flow of traffic), followed by GENEL flaggers which may have been used. The work area signing may then be removed and normal traffic patterns restored. SHEET 2 OF 4 PGE 3 OF 113 GENEL NOTES, TBLES ND LEG P
