(A) When road cut work or use of the right-of- way is being performed, the person making the road cut or using the right-of-way shall take appropriate measures to maintain traffic conditions as near normal as practicable at all times so as to cause little inconvenience as possible to the occupants of the abutting properties and to the public. All applicants shall submit with the permit application a TCP or traffic control plan for approval by the Public Works Director or his or her designee along with the permit application. No permits shall be issued without the submission of a traffic control plan unless waived by the county. State DOT regulations shall be used as the applicable regulations to follow.
(B) The county may require the permittee to notify various public agencies, emergency services and the public of proposed work prior to issuance of a permit or prior to commencement of the proposed work if the Department decides it is necessary for public safety.
(C) Warning signs shall be placed by the permittee near each road cut or substructure opening being entered so as to give adequate warning to vehicular and pedestrian traffic both night and day, and cones or other approved devices shall be placed to channel traffic. The traffic controls, including but not limited to the number, type, size and location of the signs shall be done in accordance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) Part VI and reasonable traffic standards as directed by the Public Works Director or his or her designee.
(D) The county may require the permittee to place a visible sign at each end of the construction area which is visible from a distance and sets forth the name of the person making the road cut, or in the case of a utility company the name of the company together with a business telephone number to handle calls from the motoring public.
