Request for Proposal #06/18 Gasoline Alley Entrance Sign
Addendum #1 - Request for Proposal #06/18 Gasoline Alley Entrance Sign 1. The concept “over the road” sign was sent to Alberta Transportation. Their comments can be summarized below: - A guideline for welcome signs published online at: http://www.transportation.alberta.ca/Content/docType233/Production/24Welcome_Sign.pdf - The brick base (shown on our sample sign) does not appear to be on breakaway. Please ensure that the base is outside the clear zone. To help with the clear zone assessment, the posted speed limit is 60km/hr at this location. - The entrance feature height needs to provide enough clearance for the tallest size vehicle that is approved to use the C-D Road. It should be designed to the same height as the overhead signs on provincial highways, which appears to be a 6m clearance requirement. Please refer to Page 32, Table 3.9 – Vertical Placement of Signs, Overhead Sign Type – On Dedicated Overhead Support such as a Sign Gantry: http://www.transportation.alberta.ca/Content/docType233/Production/Guide_info.pdf - The drawing does not illustrate any landscaping but if landscaping is proposed, it should consist of small shrubs and bushes (less than 100 mm base and 4 foot height at maturity) and it should be outside the clear zone. - Does the proposed entrance feature block the line of sight along the C-D Roadway? The brick base on the west side of the C-D road would have to meet clear zone requirements from both the C-D road and Hwy 2. The clear zone from Hwy 2 is over 10m with so taking into consideration all the requirements, Alberta Transportation wants to acknowledge that there’s a risk that the overhead banner sign may not be physically feasible or able to meet all the requirements. -
