2.         Proper MOT and Minimize Impacts to Traveling Public - Provide maintenance of traffic (MOT) in accordance with all applicable standards. Coordinate construction operations that directly affect the traveling public so as to minimize impacts to the public.  Effectively used the worksite Traffic Supervisor to monitor and correct deficiencies. The contractor takes the initiative to identify and fix MOT concerns in a timely manner. 
 

Contractor Notification Method:      Contractor notified via verbal warning, deficiency warning letter, or Deficiency letter.  Contractor can appeal to the District Construction Engineer Deficiency Letters within 10 days of receipt. 

 

Guidance provided: 

1.         A great deal of attention is paid to the category due to public safety.  The guidance that we give our personnel in this category is that we generally start with Verbal Warnings (VW).  If the Contractor does not correct the issue, we expect our personnel to next issue a Deficiency Warning Letter (DWL) for the same issue.  If after this DWL the Contractor has still not corrected the problem, our personnel are expected to issue a Deficiency Letter (DL).  That is the typical process, however there are times in which the VW and DWL will be omitted and issue goes directly to DL if it is a serious concern over safety compliance.
