If necessary, base failures or edge repairs shall be the responsibility of the County unless damage is caused by the Contractor’s operations. Coordination with the County maintenance forces may be required.
The Contractor shall provide all signs and traffic control devices necessary to safely maintain traffic around and through the work zone areas. Signing for lane closures shall be in accordance with the Standard Drawings and the current edition of the MUTCD.
