Right of Way Improvement Standards
RIGHT OF WAY IMPROVEMENT STANDARDS PHILADELPHIA STREETS DEPARTMENT David J. Perri, P.E. Commissioner Michael A. Carroll, P.E. Deputy Commissioner of Transportation Stephen Lorenz Chief Highway Engineer June 2015 Last Rev: N/A Forward Over the past several years, the Streets Department has undergone some transformative changes. From the Great Recession of 2008, we have entered into a time of major construction and development. With this “New Boom”, demands for a better understanding of the technical and regulatory requirements of the Department have grown dramatically. These demands have occurred concurrently with an increasing need for enforcement of Federal, and State laws, as well as a series of laws and initiatives adopted by the City of Philadelphia. In addition to seeking to fulfill the obligations defined within the Philadelphia Home Rule Charter, and the Philadelphia Code, the Streets Department has recognized the need to ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (1990), and the Underground Utility Line Protection Act, PA Act 287 (1974, and as revised), all within a framework defined greatly by Philadelphia Code §11-900 (Complete Streets). The purpose of these Right of Way Improvement Standards is to gather the standard requirements of the Streets Department into a single source. Much of the content of this publication derive from established Streets Department resources, as well as standards established, or influenced, by our sister departments, and partners with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the U.S. Government. As a living document, this Standard is subject to periodic revision, as the needs of this great City continue to grow, and new practices and technologies within our street network become available.

Philadelphia and the First Era Oj Postwar Highway Planning, 1943-1956
The Expressway "Motorists Loved to Hate": Philadelphia and The First Era oj Postwar Highway Planning, 1943-1956 T EXACTLY 12: io P.M. on November 25, 1958, Mayor Rich- ardson Dilworth of Philadelphia radioed the city policemen Astationed at the Vine Street entrance ramps to the new $100 million Schuylkill Expressway and ordered the patrol to dismantle the wooden barriers blocking access to the untraveled ribbon of concrete roadway. To the sounds of music provided by the police and firemen's band, a line of traffic rolled across the gleaming Vine Street Bridge and onto the recently finished section of express highway linking downtown Philadelphia to the Valley Forge Interchange of the Penn- sylvania Turnpike. First started in 1950, the twenty-mile highway had taken eight years to complete.1 Probably because many of those motorists who braved the expressway that first day found the maze of access ramps confusing, traffic on the new roadway snarled immedi- ately. More was involved than novice confusion. Less than a year later the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin carried a story about the "Schuylkill Clogway,"2 and "Peak-Hour Nightmare."3 When vehicles were not stalled for hours on what irate commuters complained was the "largest parking lot in the world,"4 they were, according to other critics, careening into walls and up and over unpro- tected embankments. Very soon the highway "motorists loved to hate," was popularly reviled as the "Surekill Expressway."5 A decade later, hoping to relieve congestion, planners seriously considered building a 1 Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Nov. 25, 1958, p. 9; David Hackney, "Schuyllrill: A Bummer from the Day It Opened," ibid., July 2, 1979.

Operational Study-Schuylkill Expressway
Operational Study-Schuylkill Expressway ROBERT H. PEARSON and MICHAEL G. FERRERI, Traffic Engineers, Simpson and Curtln, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania la February and March of 1960, a study was made of traf• fic operations on the SchuylMll Expressway in Philadelphia to determine design deficiencies and the necessary remedies. Studies included mechanical and manual volume counts, lane distribution, vehicle classification, radar speed distribution, travel time, delays to ramp vehicles, gap acceptance and rejection at ramps, a review of accident experience, and a motion picture analysis of peak-hour Expressway conditions. Ramp capacity studies were made at several on-ramps which have little or no acceleration lanes (0 -150 ft) and are con• trolled by stop signs. The data were recorded in sufficient detail to yield: (a) frequency and time length of gaps in the Expressway shoulder lane, (b) the time length of each accepted and rejected gap, (c) the time length of gaps accepted by a queue of vehicles, (d) the speed of each shoulder lane vehicle, (e) total delay to each ramp vehicle, and (f) the delay to each ramp vehicle while waiting as the first vehicle in line. Data were recorded in peak hours with ramps under constant pressure. Informa• tion was obtained manually using stop watches. Using this information, a high coefficient of correlation was obtained for a curve of ramp capacity as a function of shoulder lane volume. Several other variables were examined to determine their effect on ramp capacity. During peak hours, movies were taken at critical locations along the Expressway and at on-ramp merging areas. These movies showed the mei^ing problems, build-ups of congestion, and the subsequent reductions in capacity.

Planning for Growth Benjamin Franklin Parkway
CENTER CITY: PLANNING FOR GROWTH BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PARKWAY The proposals for enhancing the Benjamin Franklin Parkway have emerged from over five years of collaborative work with the Parkway Council Foundation, the Fairmount Park Commission, the Philadelphia Art Commission and the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society. In 2003, a new conceptual master plan was prepared by the Olin Partnership. Additional design and traffic engineering work was done by Brown & Keener Bressi, Cope Linder Architects, Lager Raabe Skafte Landscape Architects, Kise Straw & Kolodner, Urban Engineers, Cloud Gehshan Associates, The Lighting Practice and Grenald Waldron Associates. The advancement and implementation of these enhancements is anticipated soon. B.

Philadelphia, Schuylkill Expressway
Philadelphia, Schuylkill Expressway WERNER EICHORN and Lois M. Moisco PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Designed as one of a network of expressways ringing the metropolitan Philadelphia area, Interstate 76,—or the Schuylkill Expressway, as it is more commonly known— was fully opened to traffic in 1961, 10 years after construction began. In the ensuing 25 years, 1-76 came to stand virtually alone, as community opposition halted construction of almost all of the remaining proposed highways. For most of its 21-mile length from the Pennsylvania Turnpike in Montgomery County to the Walt Whitman Bridge in Philadelphia,, 1-76 is a four-lane, limited access highway, with some short stretches of six or eght lanes. The highway carries between 80,000 to 143,000 vehicles daily. Much of the highway passes through difficult terrain composed of steep rock cuts, high embankments, and wide, deep gullies. These restrictions, along with other constraints imposed by an adjacent railroad, parkland, and residential properties, are responsible for the variation in width and lack of progress by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation to widen the highway to provide additional expressway capacity. In about the mid 1970s, it became obvious that both the expressway pavement and the bridges in the 17.7-mile section between the Turnpike and University Avenue in Philadelphia were rapidly deteriorating, making any further interim remedial action ineffective. Of the 50 bridges within these limits, 38 required redecking, including the 1500-foot Pencoyd Viaduct, which crosses a Conrail freight line and the Schuylkill River. Because of the highway's importance and urgent need for rehabilitation, Secretary of Transportation Larson committed the department to reconstructing the expressway as quickly as possible with the least amount of disruption to motorists.
