SCOPE OF SERVICES EXHIBIT "A"
The Scope of Services covers the requirements for providing Traffic Control Devices and Services for the City
of Fort Collins on an annual basis. All of these requirements and provisions shall be incorporated in the signed
Services Agreement when the bid is awarded.
Section A: Certificates and TCS Duties
All work area traffic control placed within City of Fort Collins right of way, under the terms of this contract, shall
be under the direct supervision of a Traffic Control Supervisor (TCS). The TCS shall posses a current
American Traffic Safety Services Association certification or a C.C.A. Colorado Contractors Association
certification as a work site traffic control supervisor this certification shall be on file with the City. Valid
certification card shall be presented to the City Traffic Control Manager for each person employed to perform
as a TCS. When new TCS's are hired their certification card must be presented and the new TCS briefed by
the City Traffic Control Manager prior to putting that person on the job. A TCS must be on site when traffic
control devices are placed, modified and removed. The hourly and daily rate charged for TCS personnel shall
include a properly equipped vehicle and a cellular telephone.
The TCS's duties shall include, but not be limited to:
(1) Coordination of all traffic control related operations, including those of Subcontractors and Suppliers.
(2) Preparing and revising Traffic Control Plans as required.
(3) Direct supervision of project flaggers.
(4) Supervise the notification of businesses, Schools, and residents prior to construction as directed.
(The notification of businesses and residents may be accomplished by a representative of the TCS.)
(5) Maintaining a daily traffic control log which shall become part of the City's project records.
(6) Inspecting traffic control devices on every calendar day for the duration of the project.
(7) Insuring that traffic control devices are functioning as required.
(8) Overseeing all requirements covered by the plans and specifications which contribute to the
convenience, safety and orderly movement of traffic.
(9) Flagging.
(10) Setting up traffic control devices.
For all street closures, the Traffic Control Company or Contractor shall be responsible for the notification of
businesses and residents. The notification shall consist of distributing letters indicating the nature of the work
to be completed, any special instructions (i.e. limits on lawn watering during concrete pouring, etc.), the dates
and times of the work, and the Parking and access restrictions that will apply. Sample letters will be provided
by City personnel. Letters shall be submitted with the Traffic Control Plans for approval. After approval, the
letters shall be distributed a minimum of 24 hours prior to the commencement of each phase of the work.
(Note: The time frame criteria for distributing letters is the same as for posting "NO PARKING" signs.) The
cost for preparing and distributing the letters shall be included in the cost for TCS hour or day rate. Please
refer to City Work Area Traffic Control Handbook.
Time spent maintaining signs on the weekends, holidays, bad weather days, and other days shall be included
in the unit prices for the equipment.
All traffic control devices shall be placed under the supervision of a Traffic Control Supervisor. Failure to have
a TCS during placement, changes or removal or failure to have a certified Flagger shall remove all liability from
the City for any adverse consequences and the City will not pay the cost of any non -certified personnel.
Flag people must be certified through the Colorado Department of Highways Flagger Certification Program or
other City approved certification programs. The Contractor must certify their employees as required by this
contract without expense to the City. All flag people must carry proof of certification and present it when
requested by a City representative. If the onsite TCS performs flagging duties the City will pay for flagging price
only.
Section B: Conformity
All traffic control devices placed in the City right of way under the terms of the contract must meet or exceed
the minimum standards set forth in the most current issue of the City of Fort Collins Handbook for Traffic
Control. Additionally, any sign blank with signs faces on both sides must have the back sign face completely
covered when in use to avoid confusion to motorists traveling in the opposite direction. Company identification
must not be placed on the front of traffic control devices and all identification must comply with current MUTCD
regulations.
Section C: Service Call Requirements
Delivery and set-up of the traffic control devices shall occur per date and time agreed upon by contractor and
City Representative for day to day type activities between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. weekdays if a
Traffic Control plan has previously been approved. Delivery and set-up of traffic control devices shall occur
within 2 hours for minor set-ups between the hours of 6:00a.m. to 6:00p.m. weekdays. Delivery and set-up of
the traffic control devices shall occur within 30 minutes in an emergency. Emergency requests must be
responded to immediately with personnel and equipment on site within 30 minutes of notification. City
personnel shall give the contractor 24 hours minimum notice for work requiring traffic control, except in the
event of an emergency. City personnel shall endeavor to give reasonable advance notice, even for day to day
requests on minor set-ups.
Section D: Traffic Control Plan Preparation and Approval
If same Traffic Control Plan (T.C.P.) or a slightly modified T.C.P. is used more than once for same set-up per
job, the T.C.P. is paid for only once at the TCS hour rate not to exceed .5 hours without prior approval.
The awarded Contractor will be required to prepare a traffic control plan for all projects, except emergencies
lasting less than 24 hours. The traffic control plans must be prepared by a certified TCS, and presented to the
City's Traffic Control Manager for approval at least 24 hours, for a minor set-up, prior to set-up of devices at job
site. In the case of an emergency lasting longer than 24 hours, a traffic control plan will be submitted within 12
hours of the initial emergency. Approval by the City Traffic Control Manager will be completed within 24 hours
after plan is presented. A copy of the signed, approved plan must be maintained by traffic control personnel at
the job site and presented to the City representatives during set-up.
If, upon arrival at a job site, a City representative determines an approved traffic plan set-up is not being used,
the job will be immediately stopped until the correct set-up is in place. This action will result in non-payment to
the Contractor for any illegal devices, delivery, set-up, modification or removal charges as further defined in the
City of Fort Collins Handbook for Traffic Control associated with the job. Additionally, at the discretion of the
City, the Contractor can be back -charged liquidated damages incurred by City for downtime or loss of services

construction signs; vertical panel; vertical panel with light; Type I, Type ll, and Type III barricades;
cones; drum channelizing devices; and advance warning flashing or sequencing arrow panel. Certain
traffic control devices may be used for more than one operation or phase. However, all devices
required for any particular phase must be detailed and tabulated for each phase.
(3) Number of flaggers to be used.
(4) Parking Restrictions to be in affect.

Contractor and City Crews. Either the Contractor sets up all the traffic control devices or the City Crews will

working properly.

Contractor and a copy given to the City Department Representative monthly, or to any City Representative
