HomeMy WebLinkAbout1.18 Traffic studyTRAFFIC IMPACT: Traffic along county roads will increase due to construction activities. Measures will be taken to minimize this impact through scheduling and limiting access to the pipeline right-of-way. Actual construction of the pipeline will take place in four (4) phases. Anticipated "Traffic Impact" for each phase is as fol1ows: Phase #1 -Right-of-Way Clearing and Trenching: Construction personnel = 9 Vehicles = 3 Inspection personnel = 2 Vehicles = 2 Heavy haul Trucks = 2 Trips = 4 ea. Phase #1 Duration = 1 week (6days/week, 10 hrs/day) Percent of County Rd. 317 impact = 100% Percent of County Rd. 320 impact = 100% Phase #2 -Weld and Install Pipeline Construction personnel = 20 Vehicles = 8 Inspection personnel = 2 Vehicles = 2 Heavy haul Trucks = 4 Trips = 6 ea. Phase #2 Duration = 2 weeks (6 days/week, 10 hrs/day) Percent of County Rd. 317 impact = 100% Percent of County Rd. 320 impact = 100% Phase #3 -Nitrogen-test Pipeline: Construction personnel = 3 Inspection personnel = I Nitrogen Transport Trucks = 2 Phase #3 Duration = 1 Day Vehicles = 1 Vehicles = 1 Percent of County Rd. 317 impact = 100% Percent of County Rd 320 impact = 100% Phase #4 -Right-of-Way Cleanup and Reseeding Construction personnel = 3 Vehicles = I Inspection personnel = 2 Vehicles = 2 Heavy haul Trucks = 1 Trips = 2 ea. Phase #4 Duration = 1 week (6 days/week, 10 hrs/day) Percent of County Rd. 317 impact = 100% Percent of County Rd. 320 impact = 100% Al1 vehicles will be licensed to meet DOT regulations. Al1 permits will be obtained as required by Garfield County for trucking of heavy and/or wide loads. Dust control will be a daily construction activity taken to mitigate any public impact.
