City, county, and state regulatory agencies frequently require a traffic control plan (TCP) to be submitted and approved before working in a public right-of-way. D&H Flagging has created over 8500 TCPs that cover all contractor requirements, from a simple sidewalk closure to entire freeway system closures and detours. Additionally, we guarantee that our TCPs will be approved by your permit reviewer with no extra cost to you.

​

• Typical turn-around time is 2-3 business days (dependent on current work load – please call and verify with our Planning department)

• Rush TCP requests may be accepted with the addition of rush fees

• Additional fees may be applied if revisions or additional phases are needed due to changes from your original work zone requirements.

 

Important: D&H Flagging does not file for permits. We simply provide the TCPs you are required to have when submitting your permits.

​

D&H currently offers TCP creation services for Oregon and Washington (excluding Seattle – SDOT).  Many reviewing agencies ask for two weeks to fully review a permit with attached traffic control plans. We recommend that you submit your TCP request to D&H at least three weeks before your planned start of work date. This will allow adequate time for your permit and TCPs to be created, submitted, reviewed, and approved.

​

Special note for PBOT and City of Portland:

​

As a reminder, PBOT granted D&H Flagging an exemption from using their PBOT Basemap for the creation of traffic control plans. All D&H site-specific traffic control plans are drawn in-house and will not appear on the PBOT Basemap; however, our planning department utilizes the PBOT Basemap to create workspace diagrams.

​

What’s the difference between a site-specific traffic control plan and a workspace diagram? A site-specific traffic control plan is a detailed drawing of the road, work zone dimensions, all traffic control devices, and instructions. A workspace diagram is a simple drawing of the work zone dimensions only. The workspace diagram will be matched with the appropriate standard plan from the PBOT manual. Both site-specific traffic control plans and workspace diagrams are submitted to PBOT for review and approval.

​

PBOT has provided a flow chart that outlines the criteria related to both options: https://www.portlandoregon.gov/transportation/article/672884

​

Our planners will be able to help you determine which form of plan is appropriate for your project, given PBOT’s latest requirements.
