Policy (IIM-LD-4/TED-35) The Virginia Department of Transportation is committed in providing safe and efficient movement of motorized and non-motorized traffic through or around roadway work zones as well as providing protection for workers and equipment located within work zones. VDOT will focus on roadway visibility and functionality of temporary traffic control in work zones and traffic flow through the work zone. Emphasis will begin with the preliminary engineering stages and carried through to the completion of all work, including post construction reviews. Compliance with this guidance is consistent with the Department s goal of reducing work zone crashes and improving travel time thereby benefiting all citizens of the Commonwealth. This guidance outlines recommended procedures to be followed and identifies responsibilities to achieve safer work zones with minimal impact on the traveling public. Background (IIM-LD-4/TED-35) In September 004, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) published the Final Rule on Work Zone Safety and Mobility, 3 CFR 630 Subpart J. This rule, referred to as Work Zone Safety and Mobility, applies to State and local governments that receive Federal-aid highway funding. The policy provisions in the Final Rule on Work Zone Safety and Mobility: Requires agencies to implement a policy for the systematic consideration and management of work zone impacts on all Federal-aid highway projects. Furthermore, it encourages agencies to implement the policy for non-federal-aid projects and programs. Requires the policy to address work zone impacts throughout the various stages of the project s development and construction. The agency must consider work zone impacts during project development, management of work zone impacts during construction, and assessment of work zone performance after implementation. The agency must also consider communication with the public before and during the project. Recognizes the state policy may vary based on the characteristics and expected work zone impacts of individual projects or classes of projects. Requires transportation management plans.

. Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide standard allowable hours for the following operations: Work beyond the shoulder Shoulder closures Lane closures Full directional closures Ramp closures Managed lane closures, and to provide a standard procedure to follow when work cannot be completed within the allowable hours. Adherence to this document does not constitute approval to implement a shoulder, lane or full directional closure. In addition to these guidelines and before the approval of any closure, the following should be considered: Scheduled water crossing closures expected to change traffic patterns Expected traffic impacts (if working outside the allowable hours) Adjacent and/or nearby active work zones Special events/holidays expected to increase traffic volumes The importance and/or urgency of the work
. Work Beyond the Shoulder All Roadways There are no time restrictions for work beyond the shoulder.
3. Shoulder Closures (Mobile or Stationary) Interstates Removable A removable shoulder closure is an operation that can move all equipment, materials and workers beyond the shoulder with the shoulder in usable condition within 0 minutes or less if directed at any time during the operation. Allowable hours for removable shoulder closures are subject to the discretion of the Regional Operations Director. At a minimum, removable shoulder closures will not be allowed at the following times/locations: 3

Non-Removable A non-removable shoulder closure is an operation that cannot move all equipment, materials and workers beyond the shoulder with the shoulder in usable condition within 0 minutes or less if directed at any time during the operation. Non-removable shoulder closures are allowed at any time the Allowable Lane Closure Schedules allow for at least lane to be closed. Non-Interstates There are no time restrictions for shoulder closures. 6
4. Lane Closures (Mobile or Stationary) Multi-Lane Roadways See Allowable Lane Closure Schedules in Appendix A. For multi-lane roadways not included in Appendix A, there are no time restrictions for lane closures. However, these operations should be monitored for traffic impacts by field personnel as appropriate. Lane closures extending across multiple segments should adhere to the most restrictive allowable lane closure hours when comparing the individual segments. The and shown on the schedules refers to through lanes between interchanges/intersections. Within interchanges, the number of lanes varies due to lane drops and ramp auxiliary lanes. For lane closures within interchanges, users will need to distinguish between through lanes and ramp auxiliary lanes (acceleration lanes, deceleration lanes, weaving sections) and determine the allowable hours based on the number of open through lanes as opposed to the number of lanes closed. Closing turn lanes at signalized intersections on multi-lane roadways should be considered outside the allowable lane closure hours. See Chapter 5 for work zone traffic impact assessment requirements. Two-Lane Roadways Route 75 Lane closures (one-lane, two-way condition) are allowed between 8 pm Sunday and 3 pm Friday. Restrictions to traffic should be removed at least hours before all scheduled launches at NASA s Wallops Island Facility, and traffic should not be restricted again until at least hours after the launch. Other Two-Lane Roadways There are no time restrictions for lane closures (one-lane, two-way condition). However, these operations should be monitored for traffic impacts by field personnel as appropriate. 7
5. Lane Closures Outside the Interstates If the proposed work cannot be completed within the allowable lane closure hours, a request for an exception needs to be submitted to VDOT s project manager. All requests need to include a detailed explanation as to why the work cannot be completed within the allowable lane closure hours, and the following: Route/Direction Location of Closure (Interchange to Interchange) Number of Through to be Closure Begin Time of Day/Day of Week Closure End Time of Day/Day of Week Work Date(s) If the request is acceptable to the VDOT project manager, it will be sent to Traffic Engineering. Traffic Engineering will provide an assessment of the work zone traffic impacts within weeks, and send the exception request to the Regional Operations Director for review and approval. Non-Interstates If the proposed work cannot be completed within the allowable lane closure hours, a request for an exception needs to be submitted to VDOT s project manager. All requests need to include a detailed explanation as to why the work cannot be completed within the allowable lane closure hours, and an assessment of the work zone traffic impacts. The assessment needs to determine the expected impacts as a result of the lane closure, be signed & sealed by a professional engineer and be in accordance with VDOT s Traffic Operations and Safety Analysis Manual. If the request is acceptable to the VDOT project manager, it will be sent to Traffic Engineering. Traffic Engineering will concur with the analysis and expected impacts, or return review comments within weeks. After Traffic Engineering concurs with the analysis, the exception request will be sent to the Regional Operations Director for review and approval. 8
6. Full Directional Closures 0 Minutes or Less Full directional closures not exceeding 0 minutes in duration are allowed during the time period that the roadway is allowed to be reduced to a single lane. After traffic is released, a subsequent closure is not allowed until all traffic backups have cleared. Greater than 0 Minutes HRBT, MMMBT, JRB, Berkley, High Rise For full directional closures exceeding 0 minutes at these water crossings, a request needs to be submitted to VDOT s project manager. All requests need to include a detailed explanation as to why the work cannot be completed using lane closures, and the following: Water Crossing/Direction Closure Begin Time of Day/Day of Week Closure End Time of Day/Day of Week Work Date(s) If the request is acceptable to the VDOT project manager, it will be sent to Traffic Engineering. Traffic Engineering will provide an assessment of the work zone traffic impacts within weeks, and send the request to the Regional Operations Director for review and approval. Other Locations For full directional closures exceeding 0 minutes at other locations, a request needs to be submitted to VDOT s project manager. All requests need to include a detailed explanation as to why the work cannot be completed using lane closures, the proposed detour route, and an assessment of the work zone traffic impacts. The assessment needs to determine the expected impacts as a result of the full directional closure, be signed & sealed by a professional engineer and be in accordance with VDOT s Traffic Operations and Safety Analysis Manual. If the request is acceptable to the VDOT project manager, it will be sent to Traffic Engineering. Traffic Engineering will concur with the analysis and expected impacts, or return review comments within weeks. After Traffic Engineering concurs with the analysis, the request will be sent to the Regional Operations Director for review and approval. 9
7. Ramps Partial Ramp Closures Partial ramp closures are allowed at any time a shoulder closure is allowed on the interstate. See Chapter 3 for allowable shoulder closure hours. Full Exit Ramp Closures Exit ramps can be closed to through traffic during the time period that the interstate is allowed to be reduced to a single lane. Full Entrance Ramp Closures The allowable hours for the full closure of an entrance ramp should be determined by the locality. 0
8. Managed Shoulder For purposes of this document, the managed shoulder lanes along I-64 between Witchduck Road and Rosemont Road should be considered shoulders. See Chapter 3 for allowable shoulder closure hours. Concurrent HOV For purposes of this document, concurrent HOV lanes adjacent to general purpose lanes should be considered through lanes. See Chapter 4 for allowable lane closure hours. HOV Reversible Roadway The HOV reversible roadway along I-64 between I-564 and I-64 can be closed to traffic at any time except from 4 am to 9 am, and from pm to 9 pm Monday through Friday.

Appendix B Methodology to Update the Interstate Allowable Lane Closure Hours. Obtain new traffic data for the individual segment to be updated.. Perform analysis using the Allowable Lane Closure Hours Spreadsheet Tool developed by VCTIR to determine the new allowable lane closure hours for the individual segment using the following parameters: Terrain = level Intensity of Construction = medium Maximum Delay = 0 minutes Maximum Queue = 0 miles Diversion/Demand Reduction = 0% 3. Determine the new allowable hours for the consolidated segment by comparing the allowable hours for each individual segment and applying the following rules: The beginning of each allowable lane closure period uses the most lenient hour resulting from the analysis as long as it is within hours of the most restrictive hour. The end of each allowable lane closure period uses the most restrictive hour resulting from analysis. No lane closures after 5 am Monday through Friday except: I-95 I-64 First Colonial to Parks I-464 SB I-564 EB No lane closures before 7 pm Monday through Friday except: I-95 I-64 First Colonial to Parks I-464 NB I-564 WB For Summer I-64 EB First Colonial to Parks, no lane closures 3PM-7PM Friday For I-95, no lane closures 7AM-9AM/ 4PM-6PM Monday through, 7AM-6PM Friday 59
Appendix C Lane Closure Advisory Management System (LCAMS) Requirements and Expectations LCAMS provides a collaborative method to plan and monitor work and projects, resolve conflicts, and exchange information about existing and scheduled work activities across the region, allowing all users the same level of access to the roadways for construction, maintenance and operations. Not only does LCAMS allow authorized users to enter and monitor planned closures, it allows the motoring public to view a map page of the state with planned closures so they may expeditiously plan trips and routes. Purpose This document is to provide a standard of requirements and expectations for users of the LCAMS system. Closures on any state maintained roadway must be planned and therefore an LCAMS entry is required. a. The only exception is a mobile closure on secondary roadways.. The deadline for LCAMS is 8am the week before the work is to take place; a. The due date may change to accommodate major holidays- Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year s. 3. All POC s information must be up to date. The VDOT POC must be the VDOT employee responsible for the work. The Onsite Org POC must be the contact that will be in the field while work is being performed. 4. An LCAMS entry should be entered for each week s worth of work without including weekends unless work is actually taking place on the weekends. a. The week starts on the first Sunday after the LCAMs deadline and extends to the following Saturday. 5. If a LCAMS entry causes a conflict with another LCAMS then it is the responsibility of the user who caused the conflict to resolve all the conflicts. To resolve the conflict the user must do one of the two following things before it is approved; a. Change their requested date s and/or times to avoid the conflict. b. Send the LCAMS administrator an email stating that that contact between both LCAMS entry contacts and the conflict has been resolved. NOTE: The work is considered High Priority work, i.e. Any Design Build, Major Structure repair, etc. Contact must be made with original entry (conflicting LCAMS entry) and the details worked out so as to avoid a conflict and if not possible then the appropriate ADA must get involved in order to determine what work will be approved. The ROD must be notified as to the outcome. 6. If a LCAMS user cannot resolve their conflict for any reason that user must notify the LCAMS Administrator of the reason. a. If the conflict cannot be resolved by the LCAMS Administrator, or TOC Operations Manager can t resolve the conflict then the RTOM or ROD will be notified. 7. All LCAMS entries that have lane closures must also be entered into VA Traffic. 60
Appendix C a. If a user s LCAMS is a blanket entry, Covers more days then needed or more time then needed, then that users VA traffic s must be specific to the times and location for each specific day. This can be achieved by entering VA Traffic entries the day of the work. 8. Entries shall abide by the Allowable Lane Closure hours of operations unless otherwise approved by the ROD. a. Users with entries that contain hours that are outside of the Allowable Hours of Operations may be required to provide further documentation; i. A Copy of the contract which states the time frame for lane closures. ii. A work zone traffic impacts assessment from Traffic Engineering that has been approved by the Regional Operations Director. 6
Appendix D VA Traffic Requirements and Expectations Background. Customers want more timely traffic and travel information and VDOT s operational needs require more consistent, accurate, and timely data to meet business needs and customer expectations. Overview. VaTraffic is a web-based application that accepts data, entered by VDOT and contract staff located throughout the state, related to current events and planned events, such as traffic incidents, congestion, planned events, security events and weather conditions. VaTraffic disseminates this event information through a data feed service. It is important that the information entered into VaTraffic is complete and accurate for many reasons; one of which is the data feeds provide VaTraffic information to: 5 Virginia Travelor information website; 5 Virginia IVR (Interactive Voice Response) telephone system; 5 App used on smart phones Twitter VDOT Dashboard VDOT Customer Service Virginia Department of Emergency Management VaTraffic global database VaTraffic also disseminates operational information to: VDOT executive management VDOT Duty Officers, Safety Officers and other VDOT responders Other partner agencies: o Virginia State Police o Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), o Virginia Department of Emergency Management (VDEM) References: VaTraffic User Guide VaTraffic Job Aids Hampton Roads Lane closures on any state maintained roadway shall have a VA Traffic entry o Shoulder Closures do not require a VA Traffic unless it may cause a significant impact to traffic. VaTraffic entries should be entered at least 4 hours before the start of the work VaTraffic entries must have accurate field contact information filled out A Parent Event should not exceed one month 6
Appendix D Prior to starting work (first cone down) you must call the TOC at 757-44-993 so your work zone can be activated Upon completion of work you must call the TOC at 757-44-993 so your work zone can be closed 63
Appendix E Procedures for Working in the Reversible Roadway (HOV-RR) Reversible Roadway Allowable Lane Closure Hours Mon- Fri: 9AM-PM and 9PM-4AM Sat: Sun: Planning: Contact the Hampton Roads TOC (HRTOC) Floor Manager to coordinate the date/time. Recommend at least one week prior to requested work. Once a date/time is agreed on, enter the roadwork into LCAMS. Entries must be made prior to 0800, the week prior to the requested work. Procedures: Prior to entering the HOV-RR contact the TOC Shift Supervisor to verify the closure time and your entry point. When entering the HOV-RR for a night time closure enter through the open gates at the I-64 eastbound gate entrance (past the Granby exit # 76) or stage in the Little Creek cut thru prior to the closure time. When entering for a day time closure enter the HOV-RR through the Twin Bridge entrance prior to closure and pull over to the shoulder. After the gates are closed, an SSP will approach your vehicle and advise you to wait for a call from the Shift Supervisor advising that it is now safe for you to start working- this phone call will be after the SSP has swept the HOV-RR making sure all vehicles are clear. While traveling in the HOV-RR, keep your lights and flashers on -- and always travel in the right lane. We have a stringent communication protocol for crews working in the HOV-RR. The HRTOC Shift Supervisor is the primary coordination point. 757-44-990 Call the HRTOC Shift Supervisor after you ve entered the HOV-RR and staged on the shoulder. Call if you need to relocate once at your approved work site. Call when you have completed your work and are prepared to leave. Call when you verify that your crews are entirely cleared from the HOV-RR. This coordination enables us to account for all who are working within this dynamic roadway and coordinate movement of vehicles to keep everyone safe. 64
