(A) Street restoration for streets subject to a moratorium may include repaving, surface grinding, base and sub-base repairs, or other related work as needed, and may include partial to full-width surface restoration of the street.
(B) The Engineer may require direct boring instead of street cuts to minimize the restoration requirements and/or impacts to the street, sidewalk, or driveway.
(C) The following guidelines are established for restoration work of streets, sidewalks, and driveways.
(1) Recently improved, paved, or overlaid streets. Final resurfacing shall include the grinding of existing surrounding pavement and repaving at a minimum depth of two inches. For trenches perpendicular to traffic lanes, the permittee shall grind ten feet on either side of the trench line for the full width of any traffic lanes that have been cut. For trenches parallel to the traffic lanes, the permittee shall grind the entire width of the traffic lane for the full length of the trench with a minimum of ten feet on each end or as directed by the Engineer. For trenches other than those perpendicular or parallel to traffic lanes, the Engineer shall establish appropriate limits of paving. At the discretion of the Engineer, a full-width slurry seal for the entire block may be substituted for the required overlays in residential areas. Transverse paving joints shall be perpendicular to the traffic lanes and longitudinal paving joints shall not be allowed in vehicle wheel paths. The placement of the surface course of the repaving shall be by self-propelled, automatic leveling, multiple-width paving machine. Work shall meet all applicable construction standards. The Engineer may modify the scope of work stated above, including increasing the restoration requirements as he or she shall deem reasonable to restore the street to a condition acceptable for the volume of traffic served by the street cut.
(2) Recently slurry-sealed streets. Slurry seal shall be applied to the patched area no sooner than 30 days and no later than 90 days after completion of the pavement repair. The area of slurry seal shall be as described above for recently unproved, paved, or overlaid streets.
