| RECENT POLICY CHANGES IN THE EPG | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
MoDOT has made great strides to build a good transportation system and increase taxpayers' trust in its ability to deliver what was promised. Innovative concepts, such as Practical Design and design-build, were used to deliver those commitments and have made MoDOT a leader in the transportation industry. These forward-thinking, innovative concepts are reflected in the ENGINEERING POLICY GUIDE (EPG). This document provides a single reference for all engineering and engineering-related guidance by combining the former Right of Way, Design, Bridge, Construction, Traffic and Maintenance manuals. MediaWiki, the engine behind the Wikipedia on the World Wide Web, is the software delivering the EPG. Over 20 million hits on the EPG endorse this format to be easy to navigate and pleasing to read. A small HELP ARTICLE is included to assist with helpful hints on how to use the EPG as well as other points of interest.

Bridge Memorandums 1/24/14: Bridge Memo guidance has been expanded and clarified in both EPG 751.1.2.17 Bridge Memorandums and 751.1 Preliminary Design#751.1.3.1 Overview. Concrete Mix Design Creation QRG 1/22/14: This QRG was updated to reflect previous spec and organization changes. 1/21/14: Guidance for the MOU process has been updated to reflect that all MOUs are now federally funded. EPG 806.8 Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) 1/13/14: Best management practices (BMPs) have been both altered and removed. MoDOT will no longer utilize the nomenclature "Type I" and "Type II" ditch checks, but will utilize "Rock Ditch Check" and "Alternate Ditch Check". Please familiarize yourself with the newly revised SWPPP guidance. EPG 950 Automated Traffic Enforcement 1/10/14: There have been numerous clarifications in this article as well as the addition of new guidance for established practices (such as EPG 950.2.2 Automated Speed Enforcement by a Law Enforcement Officer). MAP-21's Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) 1/9/14: New LPA guidance, EPG 136.3.18 Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP), is now available. TAP includes the pre-MAP-21 programs of Transportation Enhancements, Recreational Trails, Safe Routes to School and Scenic Byways. Driving Pile to Rock 1/7/14: Driving pile to rock criteria has been clarified. Much of EPG 702 Load-Bearing Piles has been re-written to reflect the requirement of pile point reinforcement on all piles driven to bear on rock and the elimination of the 75% hammer efficiency requirement for single acting diesel hammers. EPG 751.36.2 Steel Pile was also revised to reflect this established practice. 1/7/14: Additional guidance is now available for IRI data entry in EPG 106.3.2.59.3.1 Segment Smoothness. LEFT TURN YIELD ON FLASHING ARROW Sign 1/7/14: Guidance in EPG 903.5.30 Traffic Signal Signs has been updated to show this sign is no longer a special sign but is now identified as R10-27a. 1/3/14: New waterjetting guidance to reflect established practice has been added to EPG 751.36. Flourescent Yellow-Green Signs 1/3/14: In Table 903.2.20.2 Common Uses of Sign Background Colors, flourescent yellow-green was removed as a color choice from pedestrian and bicycle warning signs. MoDOT reserves yellow-green for school signs only to make school signs stand out. Cast In Place Standard Detailing Notes 1/3/14: In A1.2, a note was added for CIP steel pipe pile design stresses. In G5 and G6, CIP pile and as-built foundation notes were updated. EPG 751.1.3.3 Railing Type, Height and Guidelines for Curb Blockouts 12/31/13: EPG 751.1.3.3 was re-titled and re-written to reflect current practice. A handy new table, Common Bridge Rails is also now provided. 12/26/13: A new JOC that combines the use of guardrail and guard cable has been added. Bridge Numbering Guidelines with Examples 12/20/13: Guidance about the bridge numbering system has been revised to match current practice. 12/17/13: Numerous sign dimensions have been revised in this table. 12/16/13: Aesthetic enhancement guidance was clarified to encourage form liners and concrete stains. Milestones QRG 12/5/13: This QRG has been updated. EPG 133.4.6 Statewide Winter Road Condition Report 12/5/13: Guidance of the road condition terminology has been clarified. 12/3/13: The new Guardrail and Guard Cable JSP templates are now available in the template listing. EPG 643.2 Local Utility Adjustments - Public and Private 12/3/13: Guidance in several locations of this article was updated to reflect that pre-audits are no longer conducted for consultant or utility contracts. 12/2/13: References to limestone and other rock were clarified. Compressive strengths were identified in the guidance. 12/2/13: Six QRGs (Change Order Reports, Change Orders - Zero Dollar, Change Orders, Change Orders – Mobilization and Contract Bond, Change Orders – Time Adjustment, Change Orders – Value Engineering) were updated. An additional QRG was retitled Cognos Access for SM. Updated QRGs 11/26/13: Two QRGs (Contractor Payment Estimates and Stockpiled Materials) were updated to reflect the move from Lotus Notes and the upgrade to Cognos 10. EPG 236.5.28.3 Compensation for Changes in Access 11/26/13: Guidance now outlines when an appraisal is required for a break in access and a noncontiguous access shift. An appraisal is required only when there is a change in the highest and best use of the property receiving the access. Flexibility is now provided when negotiating the amount charged for a break in access and noncontiguous access shift. |
