Roads – Flexible Paving Structure

TYPICAL PAVEMENT CROSS SECTIONCITY OF WOODLAND PARK ENGINEERING SPECIFICATION


Roads - Pavement Quality Index


Pavement quality is rated with a number called the Pavement Quality Index. This number is a function of:

o Roughness-Riding Comfort Index (RCI) the traveling public’s opinion of pavement bumpiness. Function of rating panels of citizens (established nationally) vs. the number of bumps experienced by wheel path of tires over a given section of road. (0-100) with 100 being a completely smooth surface.

oSurface Distress – Surface Distress Index (SDI) Measure of physical pavement surface cracking, deformations, and surface defects per 100 ft. of pavement. (0-100) with 100 being a completely consistent surface.

o Structural Adequacy Index – (SAI) Nondestructive test using Falling Weight Deflectometer to apply dynamic loads to pavement and measure the deflection to measure structural adequacy. (0-100) with 100 being the most structurally sound surface for that given type of street design.

Roads – Pavement Quality IndexAs of October 2018, Our Current PQI Average in Woodland Park is 56 which is considered Fair by state standards. Colorado Asphalt Pavement Association (CAPA) annual report shows that weighted average PCI in the state is 70, which means we have some catching up to do! But not to fear, we have a plan…Goal is to achieve average PQI of 70 over 10 years


Roads – Choosing a Treatment


Roads – Crack Sealing


Roads – Fog and Chip Seal


Roads – Full Depth Reclamation


Roads – Routine MaintenanceFREQUENT ROAD MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS


o Paint Striping – Repainting lines, turn arrows, storm drain entrances, and crosswalks

oShouldering – Regrading shoulders to ensure drainage works appropriately

oStreet Sweeping – Cleaning streets for safety and storm water quality

oPot Hole Repair – Cleaning and patching potholes to protect against further road degradation

Snow Plowing

PRIORITY LIST

1. Bus Routes and Sidewalks to Area Schools

2. Primary Roads and Public Parking Areas

3. Secondary Roads

4. Alleyways and cul-du-sacs

5. Continue Sanding, Widening, and “Slushing” as needed

*Remember City begins (full-crew call out) snow-plowing process once 4 inches of snow has accumulated, or as conditions may require


Snow Plowing –YOU Can Help!CITY OF WOODLAND PARK MUNICIPAL CODE (12.02.020)


o“It shall be unlawful for any person to knowingly or unknowingly shovel, plow, dump or otherwise transfer snow by any means whatsoever from any real property onto a street, road, alley, public way, right-of-way, easement or any other real property owned, leased or occupied by the city”

oUp to $300 fine!

Snow Plowing –YOU Can Help!WHAT YOU CAN DO TO GET SNOWPLOWING DONE EFFICIENTLY:

oMove all vehicles from roadway the night before the storm

oWhen following a plow, drive with lights on and stay far enough back to remain clear of flying snow and sanding materials

oRemind children not to play in street

oBe understanding of how “windrows” or berms may be formed across driveways, and that while crews try to keep them to a minimum, removal is still homeowners responsibility


Drainage – Hydrologic Cycle ImpactWHAT HAPPENS WHEN PARCEL OF LAND IS DEVELOPED?


Drainage – Being a Good Neighbor

FULL SPECTRUM DETENTION MANAGING RUNOFF QUANTITY

oDrainage Criteria Manual – Requires 75% of 2-yr storm + 100% of the 5 year storm + 100% of the 100-yr storm

oMultiple levels and combinations of on-site and sub regional detention facilities

oEncourage attention to storm water volume reduction

oAllow a broad spectrum of detention methods



LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT (LID) IMPROVING WATER QUALITY

oUse of (LID) and bio-retention facilities

oActive street sweeping program

oUnderstanding Pollutants – Trash, Pet Waste, Automotive Oil, Grease from Dumpsters, power washing, all pollute our downstream waters

oPublic Outreach and Engaged Citizens –YOU are the ones who make the difference!



EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROLEROSION AND SEDIMENT REQUIREMENTS

oDetailed in City Code, Engineering Specs, and Drainage Criteria manual

oNational Pollution Discharge Elimination System, EPA Clean Water Act (1988)

oDiscussed at each & every pre-construction meeting

oBest Management Practices (BMP’s) are actively inspected and maintained

oProtects neighbors, City storm water system, and environment



FOUNTAIN CREEK DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS FLOOD CONTROL

oUnderstand & be sensitive to your downstream neighbor’s concerns

oRoutine structure inspection and maintenance

oStorm water capital fees charged to new developments within the city to pay for storm water management master plan, expansion of flood delimitation maps and studies, repair and maintenance of city facilities, etc.



“STORM DRAIN’S FULL CLARK!” PARTNERSHIP AND LEADERSHIP

oCity-wide Storm water Master Plan Development

oWorking with Teller County, El Paso County, USFS (Our Largest Adjacent Land Owner) and CDOT

oRevising our City Standards and recommendations, changing work habits, and educating public before implementation of regulatory mandates (MS4)
