    2. Our first “unofficial” TMPs date back to the early ‘80s… starting with the XXIII Olympiad in Los Angeles. In one, we just scared people away. In the second, people disappeared but came back as soon as the Bay Bridge opened. We certainly want to use our TMP strategies, but we want to be cost-effective. (strategies used in L.A.)

    8. Six TMP Strategies P M I C D A

    9. TMPs: Required for all highway work “Blanket” TMP “Major” TMP (~5% of Projects)

    12. - Based on “0” delay (Const.) - 5 -15 minutes Delay (Maint.) - According to District Traffic Managers - eliminates about 90% of potential delay PROBLEMS - Const. windows reduced - More Night work (Urban/Rural) - Comparative Quality? - Comparative Safety? Effective Construction Strategies

    13. Other Construction Strategies (Cont.) CONSTRUCTION STAGING DELAY PENALTY -- “Hammer” for the RE to charge the Contractor ($$$) for late pick-up of the closure . EXTENDED CLOSURES (e.g. 55-Hour Weekends or 72-Hour Weekdays) NARROW LANE WIDTHS or USE OF SHOULDERS (PEAK PERIOD) MOVEABLE BARRIERS CONTRAFLOW (“Crossovers”) CONTINGENCY PLANS (Redundancy) QUICKCHANGE MOVEABLE BARRIER -- USED ON I-710 AND I-10 PROJECTS IN D7QUICKCHANGE MOVEABLE BARRIER -- USED ON I-710 AND I-10 PROJECTS IN D7

    15. Caltrans reconstructed pavement in both directions on the two outside lanes of Interstate 15 (I-15) from Sierra Avenue in the City of Fontana to the I-215 junction, a 3.4-mile stretch in Devore. This $15 Million contract began August 2004 and is scheduled for completion by February 2005. The project utilized accelerated around-the-clock construction techniques with contractor incentives that impacted traffic for a shorter period of time than conventional construction methods. The extended lane closures took place for only four weeks, and ended November 2, 2004. http://www2.dot.ca.gov/dist8/i15devore/ Caltrans reconstructed pavement in both directions on the two outside lanes of Interstate 15 (I-15) from Sierra Avenue in the City of Fontana to the I-215 junction, a 3.4-mile stretch in Devore.
