•Night work shall always be required if two lanes of traffic (One for each approach) cannot be maintained
on an arterial street.

volume of left turns occur.
Work at traffic signals that requires shifting two directions of traffic into left turn pockets.

confirm the extents of the work required, the duration of work, anticipated noise levels, and any potential
alternatives to mitigate the impact of night work to adjacent residents prior to review and approval of the
TCP.
TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN (TCP) FORMAT
•TCP must be site and project specific. The TCP shall clearly indicate all existing transportation facilities
impacted by work including roads, bike lanes, sidewalks, transit stops, and driveways. Typical drawings,
taper tables and MUTCD illustrations, by themselves, are insufficient.
•Each construction phase shall be provided with appropriate work zone traffic control. The impacts of utility
relocation, traffic delays, detours and capacity restrictions must be considered and addressed. A suitable
sequence of construction activities must be discussed with City Staff prior to fully developing TCPs based on
the complexity of a project.
•TCPs shall be clearly labeled as separate plans to identify the construction sequencing during each phase
when more than one TCP layout is submitted.
•TCP must be submitted with an electronic copy of TCP layout(s), on 11” X 17” paper size PDF format, which

Map(s) showing the location of the project and work area.
All fonts shall be legible and a minimum 10-point font size.
All symbols of viewing or printing shall be clear and contrasting.
All streets shall be labeled, and layout must include a north arrow and scale.
