10 Work Area Traffic, Control Handbook
In any event, during or following construction where center-
line delineation has been obliterated. the contractor shall at all
times provide temporary delineation. This delineation shall consist
of :empurary rellectorized raised pavement markers, temporary
r•ellectorizetl lines or other- approved reflector•ized delineation
devices.
10 - FLAGGER CONTROL
Flagger� are required:
1. Where workers or equipment intermittently block a traffic
lane.
2. Where plans or permits allow the use of one lane for two
directions of traffic, two flaggers are required, one fnr each direc-
tion of traffic.
3. Where the safely of the public andior• workers determines
there is a need.
Flaggers must be selected with care and certified where re-
quired. They ,hall be alert, intelligent, neat in appearance, have
good hearing and eyesight and should be trained in the proper
fundamentals of flagging traffic before being assigned as flaggers.
They :ihould be stationed far enough from the work to slow down
or stop vehicles before they enter the work area.
A symbol sign of a flagger (C9A) shall be placed as far ahead of the
flagger as practicable. (See illustrations un pages 14, 28 and 29.)"
All flaggers shall be provided with an orange jacket (or vest) for
daytime use and a reflecturized 1-armet for use at night. Flaggers
shall be equipped with a sign paddle. From sunset to sunrise
flagger stations shall be illuminated such that the flagger will be
clearly visible to approaching traffic. Lights for illuminating the
station shall be approved by the authorizing agency. .Flagging
procedures (signaling; shall be the same as those prescribed for
clay work. Under emergency conditions the flagger may use a
flashlight anti hand signals to direct traffic, until proper illurnina-
Lion can be effected.
The hand signals and equipment to be used by flaggers for
controlling and directing traffic are shown on pages 28 and 29.
For nigh :peer) aituainns s "Prepare to Stop" (C36) Sign .'huul'l also he tlAed.
11 - PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC
When the work area encroaches upon a sidewalk, walkway or
crosswalk area, special consideration mu.A be given to pedestrian
safety. Because pedestrians move at a relatively sow rate, a
Work Area Traffic Control Handbook 11
minimum of advance warning is required. However, effort must
be made to separate the pedestrian fr•orn the work area. (See
illustrations on pages 44 and 45.)
Protective barricades, feneing, handrails and bridges, together
with warning and guidance devices and signs, roust be utilized su
that the passageway for pedestrians, especially visually impaired
and other physically disabled persons, is safe and well defined.
Walkways in construction areas shall be maintained at least four
feet (1.2m) in width and free of abrupt changes in grade. Obstrue-
tions within the walkways shall be illuminated during hours of
darkness. Minimum vertical clearance to any obstruction within
the walkway shall be seven feet (2.0m).
Where walks are closed by construction, an alternate walkway
shall be provided, preferably within the parkway. Where it is
necessary to divert pedestrians into the parking lane of a street,
barricading or delineation shall be provided to separate the
pedestrian walkway from the adjacent traffic lane. At no time
shall pedestrians he diverted into a portion of the street used for
vehicular traffic. Any deviation from the above roust have prior
approval of the authorizing agency.
At locatirins where adjacent alternate walkways cannot be pro-
vided, appropriate signs, closely spaced barricades, and warning
tape must be installed at the limits of construction and in advance
of the closure at the nearest crosswalk or intersection to divert
pedestrian traffic across the street and phvsically discourage
pedestrians from entering the work area.
12 - BICYCLE TRAFFIC
When performing work on any roadway, attention should be di-
rected towards the probability of encountering bicycle traffic.
Roadways adjacent to work areas, particularly shoulders or park-
ing lanes, must be kept free of obstructions or other hazards to
bicyclists.
When performing work on roadways designated as a bike route
or where separate bike lanes are present,, special attention needs
to be given to bicyclists. When a striped bike lane is closed for
construction, signing shall be installed to terminate the bike lane
and advise motorists that previously separated bicycle traffic will
be in the traveler) way (see illustration on page 51).

10 Work Area Traffic. Control Handbook
In any event, during or following constructiun where Center-
line delineation has been obliterate( 1, the contractor ;hall at all
times provide temporary delineation. This delineation ,hall consist
of :empor,ary rellectorized raised pavement markers, temporary
rellectorized lines or other approved rellectorized delineation
devices.
10 - FLAG.GER CONTROL
Flaggers are required:
1. Where workers or equipment intermittently block a traffic
lane.
2. Where plans or permits allow the use of one lane for two
directions of traffic, two Flaggers are required, one for each direc-
tion of tral'fic.
3. Where the safety of the public andior workers determines
there is a need.
Flaggers must be ;elected with care and certified where re-
quired. They shall be alert, intelligent, neat in appearence, have
good hearing and eyesight and should be trained in the proper
fundamental,; of flagging traffic before being assigned as flashers.
They should he stationed far enough from the work to slow down
or stop vehiclei before they enter the work area.
A symbol sign of it flagger W9A) shall be placed a far ahead of the
flagger as practicable. (See illustrations un pages 14, 28 and 29.)*
All flagger, shall be provided with an orange jacket (or vest) for
daytime use and a rellectorized rrarmet for use at night. Flaggers
shall be equipped with a sign paddle. From sunset to sunr'i e
flagger stations :hall be illuminated such that the flagger will be
clearly visible to approaching traffic. Lights for illuminating the
station shall be approved by the authorizing agency. .Flagging
procedures (signaling) shall be the same as those prescribed for
clay work. Under emergency conditions the flagger may use a
flashlight and hand signals to direct traffic, until proper illurnina-
t.ion can he effected.
The hand signals and equipment to be used by flaggers for
controlling and directing traffic are shown on pages 28 and 29.
°For high ;peed situations a "Prepare. to Stop" (C36) sign AOLIH also he u.:ed.
11 - PEDESTRIAN TRAFFIC
When the work area encroaches upon a sidewalk, walkway or
crosswalk area, special consideration muA be given to pedestrian
safety. Because pedestrians move at a relatively slow rate, a
Work Area Traffic Control Handbook 11
minimum of advance warning is required. However-, effort must
be made to separate the pedestrian from the work area. (See
illustrations on pages 44 and 4.5.)
ProtectNe barricades, fencing, handrails and bridges, together
with warning and guidance devices and signs, must be utilized so
that the passageway for pedestrians, especially visually impaired
and other physically disabled persons, is safe and well clefined.
Walkways in construction areas shall be maintained at least four
feet (1.2m) in width and tree of abrupt changes in grade. Obstruc-
tions within the walkways shall be illuminated during hours of
darkness. Minimum vertical clearance to any obstruction within
the walkway shall be Seven feet (2.0m).
Where walks are closed by construction, an alternate walkway
shall be provided, preferably within the parkway. Where it i
necessary to divert pedestrians into the parking lane of a street,
barricading or delineation shall be provided to separate the
pedestrian walkway from the adjacent traffic lane. AC rw time
shall pedestrians be diverted into a portion of the street used fur
vehicular traffic- Any deviation from the above roust have prior
approval of the authorizing agency.
At locations where adjacent alternate walkways cannot be pro-
vided, appropriate signs, closely spaced barricades, and warning
tape must be installed at the limits of construction and in advance
of the closure at the nearest crosswalk or intersection to divert
pedestrian traffic across the street and physically discourage
pedestrians from entering the work area.
12 - BICYCLE TRAFFIC
When performing work on any roadway, attention should be di-
rected towards the probability of encountering bicycle traffic.
Roadways adjacent to work areas, particularly shoulders or park-
ing lanes, must be kept free of obstructions or other hazards to
bicyclists.
When performing work on roadways designated as a bike route
or where separate bike lanes are present, special attention needs
to be given to bicyclists. When a striped bike lane is closed for
construction, signing shall be installed to terminate the bike lane
and advise motorists that previously separated hicycle traffic will
be in the traveled way (see illustration on page 51).
Barricades used at the terminus shall he spaced closely to pre-
vent physical passage by bicyclists into the work area. Warning
tape may be used to close the gap between barricades.
