Notes for traffic control: Every contractor working in the City right-of-way shall be required to obtain a Street/Lane/Alley/Sidewalk Closure Permit from the Public Works Department Traffic Engineering Section, Room 325, two working days in advance and provide signing diagrams for all closures. Required closure fees must be paid before pernuts are issued. Each occurrence of working in the right-of-way will require a separate permit.
