Current through Register Vol. 24-06, March 15, 2024
For all CAPA-funded projects that involve structural
resurfacing, the existing road must meet the following minimum width
standards:
| Shouldered roadway sections: |
| Current ADT |
Lane width |
Shoulder width |
| 0 to 100 |
9 feet |
2 feet |
| 101 to 400 |
10 feet |
2 feet |
| 401 to 4000 |
10 feet |
2 feet |
| Over 4000 |
11 feet |
4 feet |
| Curbed roadway sections (minimum lane width):
|
| Current ADT |
Two-way undivided |
One-way & two-way divided |
| All |
10 feet |
9 feet |
All roadways built to less than the above standards for which a
county proposes to perform structural resurfacing must be widened with other
than CAPA funds.
Use of county arterial preservation account funds shall be
limited to the following three groups of activities:
(1) Implementation of computerized systems to
include:
(a) Acquisition of computer hardware
and software that may be necessary to operate a computer-based pavement
management and maintenance management systems.
(b) Pavement management system training not
otherwise provided by the county road administration board. This can include
software usage, pavement condition surveying, and other specialized training
directly related to the operation and maintenance of a computer-based pavement
management system.
(c) Payment for
related services such as data entry, pavement condition surveys, and rental of
specialized PMS-related equipment such as road raters.
Acquisition of equipment other than computer hardware as
described in (a) of this subsection is not eligible.
(2) Direct and attributable
indirect costs associated with paved surface preservation and rehabilitation
activities on existing roadways, and maintenance management activities related
to all county arterials, including the following:
(a) Nonstructural resurfacing projects. These
include thin asphalt concrete overlays (one-inch or less); bituminous seal
coats (single and double); slurry seals, sand seals, and fog seals; associated
tack coats, paving fabrics, and prelevel-ing; and associated surface grinding
and planing.
(b) Structural
resurfacing projects. These include thick asphalt concrete overlays (greater
than one inch); portland cement concrete overlays; associated tack coats,
paving fabrics, and preleveling; associated surface grinding and planing; and
hot/cold bituminous road mixes.
(c)
Associated activities. These include crack sealing (bituminous and portland
cement pavements); full-depth, structural patching done in preparation for
structural or non-structural overlays or seals; portland cement pavement joint
reconstruction, undersealing, panel jacking and panel replacement; and other
related activities as are directly attributable to nonstructural and structural
resurfacing projects.
(d)
Maintenance management activities. These include creating maintenance
management reports and training in maintenance management per the requirements
listed in chapter 136-11 WAC.
(3) Resurfacing work associated with the
reconstruction and/or widening of existing paved arterials. This participation
is limited as follows:
(a) The present roadway
is a paved county arterial as defined by WAC
136-300-050;
(b) The county's approved pavement management
system has identified the existing pavement as requiring resurfacing within two
years of the expected reconstruction/widening project completion
date;
(c) The
reconstruction/widening project will bring the roadway to at least the lane and
shoulder width standards and non-CAPA funding requirements of this
section;
(d) The CAPA participation
will be limited to the resurfacing portion of the project as described in this
section.
