TTC Template Sheets for Stationary Work Zones
Temporary Traffic Control Plans for MnDOT projects follow a general format of style and information. The Metro TTC Typical Sample Plan (linked below) may be used as reference for designing a TTC Plan for a MnDOT project, although each MnDOT District may have slightly different formats developed. The template sheets listed on this page may be added to a TTC Plan as needed for a particular project. The template sheet files (DGN format) may be imported into any TTC plan, but each template must be edited to comply with project specific construction situations. DESIGN NOTES are included on most template sheets and the designer should use them to make appropriate design considerations. When the final traffic control sheets are placed into the construction plans, all variables should be determined and entered on the sheet(s) directly and all the designer notes and charts should be removed from the sheets.
Downloadable files
PLEASE NOTE: the CADD files were created in Microstation Version 7 format; levels, colors and some legend symbols may not be up to current CADD standards. These templates will be updated on a continuous basis. It is recommended that a designer retrieves the most current version of any sheet template before beginning the "Temporary Traffic Control Plan" design process.
