Submit new inquiry for this projectInquiry #1: Reference is made to sheet CS-1 of the project plans. We are seeking clarification for the installation of construction area signs at ramps. Since there are no dimensions given for panels or wood posts and the absence of notes regarding their installation method, it is difficult to estimate accurate costs of labor, equipment and materials. Is it possible to provide sign panel dimensions, and if the panels are stationary mounted, wood post dimensions? Thank you.

Inquiry #3: The Departments attention is directed to the cross sectional drawing of the recessed MMA traffic stripe. Water, Ice, Snow, Dirt, Sand and other debris, will accumulate on the surface of the traffic stripe rendering reflectivity ineffective. With the Departments current interest in providing the traveling public with highly reflective wet night traffic stripes, it is suggest to revert back to a "flush-fill" thermoplastic traffic stripe that will shed water and reduce accumulation of debris that restricts retroreflectivty.
