HomeMy WebLinkAbout1.14 Traffic impactTRAFFIC 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 follows:
Phase #1 — Right -of -Way Clearing and `Drenching:
Construction personnel = 6 Vehicles = 2
Inspection personnel = 2 Vehicles = 2
Heavy haul Trucks = 1 Trips = 3 ea.
Phase #1 Duration = 2 weeks (6days/week, 10 urs/day)
Percent of County Rd. 300 impact = 100%
Phase #2 — Weld and Install Pipeline
Construction personnel = 36 Vehicles = 5 (includes 2 buses)
Inspection personnel = 2 Vehicles — 2
Heavy haul Trucks — 1 Trips = I ea.
Phase #2 Duration = 4 weeks (6 days/week, 10 hrs/day)
Percent of County Rd. 300 impact = 1 00%
Phase #3 — Hydro -test Pipeline:
Construction personnel = 5 Vehicles = 2
Inspection personnel = 1 Vehicles = 1
Water Transport Trucks = 10 Loads/day for 19 days
Phase #3 Duration = 2 weeks
Percent of County Rd. 300 impact = 100%
Phase #4 Right -of -Way Cleanup and Reseeding
Construction personnel = 6 Vehicles = 2
Inspection personnel = 1 Vehicles — 1
Heavy haul '/'rucks = 1 Trips 2 ea.
Phase 44 Duration = 3 weeks (6 days/week, 10 hrslday)
Percent of County Rd_ 300 impact = 100%
All vehicles will be licensed to meet DOT regulations. All 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.
