STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES

BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN SAFETY THROUGH WORK ZONES

CITY OF SUNNYVALE

Warning sign types and locations:
• For any lane closures on the right side of the street there will be four required signs.

1. Road Work Ahead

2. Right /Bike Lane Closed Ahead (depending on the situation)

3. A Bike Warning Sign - either W-79, Share the Road, or Watch for Bicyclists. Staff prefers using the Watch for Bicyclists sign.

4. Lane/Bike Lane Closed (depending on the situation)

Bike lane closures:
• For any bike lane closures there will be four signs required.

1. Road Work Ahead

2. Right /Bike Lane Closed Ahead (depending on the situation)

3. A Bike Warning Sign - either W-79, Share the Road, or Watch for Bicyclists. Staff prefers using the Watch for Bicyclists sign.

4. Lane/Bike Lane Closed (depending on the situation)
• Staff will try to provide a 14 foot wide travel lane in situations where bicycles and cars will need to share a lane. If this is not achievable, the Caltrans minimum of 10 feet will be required.

Sidewalk closures:
• A clear pedestrian path will be provided through any sidewalk construction.

1. This could be attained by
a) creating a pathway on the sidewalk around the construction, or through the parking strip
b) creating a coned or barricaded area off of the sidewalk, c) designating a flagger to escort pedestrians safely through the work zones

2. If there is no clear pathway immediately available, pedestrians will be detoured. Any detour will include detailed signage. The pedestrian will be notified of the detour before they reached the construction sites so that no backtracking would be required.

Elaborate pedestrian detours will be avoided if possible because staff has found them to be ineffective.
• Issues concerning provisions for people with disabilities will be handled on a case by case basis.

Sign placement for work zones that will not be closing any travel lanes:
• Work crews must warn roadway users of the work being conducted on the side of the roadway even when no travel lanes are being closed. In this situation, the warning signs will be placed off of the roadway as much as possible. Bicycle and pedestrian travel will be considered in the placement of the sign. Sign visibility and proximity to the work zone will also be considered.

Duration of work:

Attachment 1

Page 33 of 40 ends

• Work crews may use their discretion regarding warning signs and traffic control on jobs that will last under 1 hour. Short duration work is defined as work that occupies a location up to one hour. It is appropriate to use colored or marked vehicles with rotating strobe lights, arrow panels or truck mounted signs in place of advance signs and channelizing devices.

Nighttime visibility :
• Retro reflective 28" cones will be used to barricade work zones at night. • Barricades with reflective striping will be used to hold warning signs. • Arrow boards will be used under some circumstances.
• All work being conducted by the city at night will only done on an emergency basis.

Storage of Equipment on-street:
• No storage of construction equipment or debris is permitted on the street outside of working hours.

Outside contractor compliance:
• Provide all encroachment permitees with a copy of the city's SOP.

1. Make contractors aware ahead of time that they will be required to secure their own signs.

2. Staff will continue to make announcements to sign vendors that the City will be requiring these signs.

Complaint procedures:
• For complaints related to work done by city crews, all complaints will be routed through the "field services" answer point.
• For complaints related to work done for capital projects or by contractors with encroachment permits, all complaints will be routed to the Project Administration division.
