Highway lighting justification. A highway lighting justification analysis shall be performed in accordance with the MUTS. Should lighting be warranted on a corridor based on the geometric and operational factors score or night-to-day collision ratio, a cost estimate and Net Present Value calculation shall be completed. The report will also include a summary of the geometric, operational, and environmental factors on the roadway which may contribute to the need for lighting. Task Product: • Highway lighting justification report Task 13: DEVELOPMENT OF ALTERNATIVES AND RECOMMENDATIONS Utilizing the products from other tasks in a composite study, the CONSULTANT shall develop and analyze feasible and appropriate alternatives, which address solutions to the defined problem(s). A minimum of 3 practical alternatives will be developed and analyzed for each composite study. If three practical alternatives do not exist, the CONSULTANT shall advise the DTOE or the PM and make a statement to this effect in the report. Based on this analysis the CONSULTANT shall recommend one of the alternatives. The CONSULTANT shall document the results and recommendations from all tasks in a Composite Study in a written report. If the proposed change(s) involve revisions to the geometrics, then a sketch should be provided for each alternative improvement concept. Task Products: • Development of alternatives/improvement concepts (sketches) • Analysis of alternatives • Recommended alternative Task 14: NO-PASSING ZONE STUDY The CONSULTANT shall prepare a No-Passing Zone Study report based on Section 3B-02 of the MUTCD entitled "No-Passing Zone Pavement Markings and Warrants" and of the MUTS. Payment shall be made based on one (1) two-way mile of a given roadway. Task Product: • No-Passing Zone study report • The limits of the existing no-passing zone in both directions for the given roadway segment in table and diagram format • The limits of the recommended no-passing zones required in both directions for the given roadway segment in table and diagram format Subtask 14A: Additive – Additional Mile Task Product: • The limits of the recommended no-passing zones required in both directions for each additional two-way mile of the given roadway.
Highway lighting justification. As part of this task the Consultant shall develop a Highway Lighting Justification Report to analyze and justify the need for a roadway lighting system. The Study shall be developed according to the guidelines provided in the Manual of Uniform Traffic Studies.
