16.2.3 Other Activities to be Carried Out by the Contractor

Sequencing of Construction Contracts:A detailed road inventory and traffic information will be included in the TenderDocuments, as well as guidelines and specific requirements to be complied with by theContractor.It is unlikely that the Traffic Management Report can impose an optimum sequencing ofthe contracts that would lead to the minimization of traffic impact.

That target can only be achieved by fixing clear guidelines to be observed by eachcontractor in preparing his Work Schedule and, subsequently, to ensure that the TrafficManagement Expert will analyze the schedules in depth as explained below and, in closecollaboration with the local authorities, avoid or at least keep to a minimum theinterferences among the works in adjacent zones.

Preparation of Road Inventory:

Based on the data and measurement that will be carried out in the field, an inventorytable, shall be prepared by the Contractor which will include the list of data/information foreach uniform segment of relevant roads and streets when a road presents differentfeatures along its alignment it shall be broken down into segments of uniformcharacteristics:

Road names and classification: main routes, municipal streets, etc…

Starting/ending point and length of each road segment of uniform characteristics.

Roadway width, presence of parking lanes and traffic signals etc….

Roadside development: commercial, residential, major traffic generators (publicoffices, bus terminals, commercial centres, open markets, educational centres,religious buildings, sport complexes etc.)

Traffic directions (one-way, two-way, dead end, divided carriageways),

It is the responsibility of the Contractor to carry out the works and to ensure that thetraffic control devices are place and maintained, day and night, throughout the durationof the works, to the requirements of the traffic control at roadworks booklet and tosatisfaction of the Traffic Police.

The control devices and procedures described must be used at all works, regardless oftheir size or duration. It should be noted that these controls and procedures areminimum requirements and that additional control may be required at particularlyhazardous sites.The signing associated with roadworks must be instantly recognizable to the driver andmust guide traffic clearly and safely through the length of the works.

The route to be taken by traffic must be just as clear at night or in inclement weather asit would be in normal daytime conditions.

Restrictions on working hours, or any other special conditions, imposed by the PublicWorks Authority or Traffic Police must be strictly observed.

Where the works are within a Security Area, special conditions may be imposed by theSecurity Authority.


C2/15 May 2016


Where the works are so extensive that a road must be closed to through traffic, a trafficdiversion must be design in conjunction with the Traffic Police. Diversion or temporarydirectional signing must be provided, both in advance of the closure and through theroute of the diversion, as described in Section 8 of Traffic Control at Roadworks booklet.

Where the works obstruct the footway or pavement, alternative routes must be providedfor pedestrians, as instructed in Section 5 of Traffic Control at Roadworks booklet, toprotect them from any hazard.

The use of any of the methods of traffic control suggested above, detailed in latersections, must be agreed with the Traffic Police at an early stage in the planning of theworks.

All obstructions and excavations on or near the footway must be fenced off and signed,for the protection of pedestrians.

16.3.4 Temporary Diversion Routes

The contractor shall base his costing on his proposed construction phasing taking intoaccount the constructability, efficiently of traffic flow and safety aspects of the proposedphasing and should the Contractor wishes to vary the phasing to suit the operations thenhe will be allowed to do so subject to the compliance with the Traffic Signs and ManualChapter 8 – Part 1 (2009 Edition) Traffic Safety Measures & Signs for Roads andTemporary Situations (Highways Agency– UK).
