![]() Since each project is unique, the figures cannot address every situation. The figures in this article include typical applications and examples of work zone traffic control. Traffic control sheets must be provided in the traffic control plans showing the location of all traffic control devices. The use of Highway Capacity Software, VISSIM, CORSIM or other computer programs may aid in estimating queue lengths, delays, etc. Hourly volumes can assist in determining the type of traffic control used, working hour restrictions and other aspects of the TCP. Intersection traffic count data may also be requested from district traffic personnel. This is especially the case where traffic capacity is a significant factor in the design of the TCP. In some cases, it may be necessary to obtain traffic count data from Transportation Planning to aid in the development of the TCP. A preliminary field check with district construction and traffic is recommended to ensure the TCP will be compatible with field conditions. Typical traffic control set-ups shall be shown for each work activity within the work zone. The scope of the TCP is determined by the complexity of the project and is developed by the designer in the district in cooperation with district construction, maintenance and traffic personnel. The TCP is an integral part of the planning and design of a project. The degree of detail in the TTC plan depends entirely on the nature and complexity of the situation.Ī Traffic Control Plan (TCP) is developed for every project. TTC plans range in scope from being very detailed to simply referencing typical drawings contained in this article, standard approved highway agency drawings and manuals, or specific drawings contained in the contract documents. Important auxiliary provisions that cannot conveniently be specified on project plans can easily be incorporated into Special Provisions within the TTC plan. TTC plans play a vital role in providing continuity of effective road user flow when a work zone, incident, or other event temporarily disrupts normal road user flow. A TTC plan describes TTC measures to be used for facilitating road users through a work zone or an incident area. 16 616.3.16 Temporary Two-Lane, Two-Way OperationsĦ16.3.1 Temporary Traffic Control Plans (MUTCD Section 6C.01).15 616.3.15 Stop or Yield Control Method of One-Lane, Two-Way Traffic Control (MUTCD 6C.15).14 616.3.14 Temporary Traffic Control Signal Method of One-Lane, Two-Way Traffic Control (MUTCD 6C.14).13 616.3.13 Pilot Car Method of One-Lane, Two-Way Traffic Control (MUTCD 6C.13). ![]() 12 616.3.12 Flag Transfer Method of One-Lane, Two-Way Traffic Control (MUTCD 6C.12).11 616.3.11 Flagger Method of One-Lane, Two-Way Traffic Control (MUTCD 6C.11).10.1 616.3.10.1 Side Roads within the Work Area for One-Lane, Two-Way Operations.9 616.3.9 Detours and Diversions (MUTCD 6C.09).8.7 616.3.8.7 Two-way Center Turn Lane Tapers.6.4.1 Table 616.3.6 Recommended Length of Longitudinal Buffer Spaces.5.1 Table 616.3.5 Recommended Taper Length and Spacing.4.1 Table 616.3.4 Recommended Advance Warning Sign Minimum Spacing.3 616.3.3 Components of Temporary Traffic Control Zones (MUTCD 6C.03).2 616.3.2 Temporary Traffic Control Zones (MUTCD 6C.02).1 616.3.1 Temporary Traffic Control Plans (MUTCD Section 6C.01).These revisions are intended to be printed out and inserted into printed versions of the MN MUTCD to replace existing pages.
