Question No. 5 - On C6 sheets, the removed pavement and median sidewalk is shown

to be replaced by the Traffic Logix system. Is this correct?

detail is full-depth repair is required.

following:

require the subgrade work shown in Detail 2 and Detail 3

for the subbase is supplemental and may not be needed.

existing HMAC that would allow required flexible base work.

Answer: This information is supplemental in the event it is needed due to

contractor operations.

Question No. 9 - A On Sht C12, please provide more clarity on the shape of the Traffic

Logix cross section as it does not appear to match that of the HMAC section on Sht

C11; Sht C11 shows a 10' wide cross walk area with 10' maximum length ramping up to

the raised cross walk, but Sht C12 seems to show a 3.5'(42") wide cross walk area with

42" ramps.

Answer: The Traffic Logix system is provided as an example detail of an acceptable system

to be used for the table top sidewalks. However, if this option is used, the procured

manufactured sidewalk must match the dimensions shown on the plans.

Question No. 10 - On Sht C14:

o The concrete flume detail notes appears to require 6" depth of clear

drainage way through the flume and which matches the existing gutter/top

of curb depth; please note that the grate series type will note provide this

clearance as the grate utilizes approximate 2" vertical vanes that will

extend into this 6"clearance; please clarify that this is acceptable.

Answer: The drainage calculations are assuming a 6” depth of clear through the

flume, please maintain the 6” of clearance for conveyance.

o Please provide additional details to aid in layout of the concrete flume

locations; the different plan detail sheets indicate the flume is to be

placed parallel and on top of the existing gutter to allow continued and

flow through of runoff along the gutter; however, the flume plan detail on

this sheet seems to indicate the flume is to be set back from the existing

gutter which then creates potential blockage of gutter flow.

Answer: New curb and gutter and concrete flume are located within the areas

identified to be removed on the demolition plan. They are to replace the existing

curb and gutter.

Question No. 11 - What class of concrete should be used for the concrete flume? P
