A. Multi-Use Path Ramps And Sidewalks: Multi-use path ramps shall be concrete as to accommodate the detectable warning tile.
Curb and gutter, sidewalk and drive approaches shall be constructed in accordance with the timeframes, temperatures, and conditions set forth in the IDOT Standard Specifications. Unless authorized in writing by the Village Engineer, concrete operations shall be discontinued if they are not being completed in accordance with the IDOT Standard Specifications.
All public sidewalks shall be constructed of concrete in accordance with an IDOT approved mix.
The base shall be four inches (4") of compacted, crushed stone base on a dry natural or compacted subgrade. In no case shall the base be placed on a subgrade of topsoil or other unsuitable material.
The sidewalk shall be five feet (5') wide and shall be placed within the right-of-way, one foot (1') from the property line. The sidewalk shall be placed a minimum of five inches (5") thick. At all residential drive locations this minimum thickness shall be six inches (6"). At all commercial drive locations this minimum thickness shall be eight inches (8"). The surface finish shall be a light broom finish.
Sidewalk and multi-use path curb ramps with a detectable warning surface shall be constructed at all crosswalks according to the IDOT standard in effect at the time of final plat approval except as noted in the Village's Sidewalk Ramp Detail Sheet on file in the Village. The design engineer shall be responsible for including the current IDOT standard ramp details in the final engineering plans. The IDOT standard that appears on the approved engineering improvement plans shall be the standard at which the sidewalk ramps shall be evaluated for final Village acceptance. Note: Intersection details for all street intersections, showing the grading details and spot elevations for all curbs, curb depressions, ramps, manhole rims, pavement slopes, sidewalk slopes, curb slopes and parkway slopes shall be required as part of the engineering improvement plans. This information shall also be provided at the time of the record drawings such that the design engineer can confirm the design intent of the intersection and that the sidewalk ramps meet the ADA requirements.
The sidewalk shall be constructed with contraction joints at five foot (5') intervals and shall be saw cut to a minimum depth of one inch (1") full width within twenty four (24) hours of concrete placement, or tooled at the time of placement to the same depth.
Expansion joints of three-fourths inches (3/4") full depth bituminous fiber material, or approved equal, are required where the new sidewalk abuts all curb, buildings, poles, other structures, through all drives on each side and at maximum intervals per the Typical Expansion Joint Spacing Curb and Sidewalk Chart in the Standard Drawing.
Class SI concrete as specified in the IDOT "Standard Specification for Road and Bridge Construction" shall be used on all sidewalks. A concrete delivery ticket from the concrete supplier with this information and the location and date of the pour shall be submitted to the Village prior to any Village approvals of said work.
The contractor shall notify the Village forty eight (48) hours prior to placing the concrete for an inspection of the base, reinforcing and formwork.
