Re: Sparrow Hill — Complimentary Pre Inspection prior to final asphalt layer
Dear Mr. Redinger:
(804) 786-2701
Fax: (804) 786-2940
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has completed a complimentary site inspection of the above -mentioned project. The site
conditions had deficiencies that would prohibit the application of the topcoat until corrective
actions have been satisfactorily completed. The following items are in need of repair/replacement
prior to final asphalt layer.
1. First inlet on right appeared to have a blocked cross -drain outlet into structure. Please
verify this cross -drain is not damaged and/or blocked prior to final topcoat.
2. Many areas of CG-6 are damaged throughout the project and need to be replaced prior to
top layer of SM-9.5A. Final inspection will verify the conditions of all CG structures.
3. Many of the CG-9 entrances are damaged and need to be replaced prior to top layer of SM-
9.5A. Final inspection will verify the conditions of all CG structures.
4. All valve locations for fire hydrants are subsiding, will need excavation, and repaired per
WP-2 utility detail.
5. Base mix has been installed to gutter pan depth in many areas and will need to be milled
prior to application of top layer of SM-9.5A. Final inspection will verify the conditions of
all CG structures.
6. CG-12 do not appear to be constructed according to road and bridge standards. Truncated
dome surface does not extent the full width of the structure. Details for correct installation
can be found in section 204 of the R&B Standards:

7. Valve box in CG-6 at end of cul-de-sac by fire access lane needs to be removed and
relocated out of the CG structure and CG-6 repaired. Final inspection will verify the
conditions of all CG structures.
8. Re -inspection is recommended prior to placement of SM-9.5 top layer of asphalt.
In an effort to help facilitate the final acceptance procedure, the following items were also noted
for correction. These items should be completed prior to requesting a final road acceptance
inspection:
1. CG-6 with gutter does not extend to edge of pavement on exit side of subdivision entrance.
2. Stop signs do not have adequate post 16" above stop sign for Route number signs per
standards
3. E-911 sign is too short and will need to be a minimum 7', Check with County requirements
for E-911 signs.
4. Several areas of sidewalk are missing.
Areas needing repair/replacement were marked with white paint in the field on May 13, 2020
Due to the level of current contractor activity in the project area, additional repairs may be required
prior to final acceptance.
