The following CADD drafting standards outline the general practices that shall be
used in preparing Traffic Signal Plans for Los Angeles County Public Works. The
purpose of the standards is to promote uniformity in the preparation and drafting
of these drawings. These standards are not intended to be a source for design
considerations. Sample plans shall be utilized as a reference for description
purposes and acceptable quality of plan work is illustrated by the samples. All
plans must be prepared using MicroStation version V8i or higher.

1.0 DRAFTING PRACTICES

1.1 Line Styles and Lettering Types

Line Styles: Appendix A shows the recommended line styles,

colors, and weights to be used.

 All existing equipment, signing, striping and markings

shall be shown dashed.

 All proposed equipment, signing, striping, and markings

shall be shown solid.

Lettering: Table 1 shows the recommended text format to be used

for each text type.

 Use upper case lettering for all instructions to the

contractor.

 Information or notes not pertaining to work by

contractor shall be in lower case lettering.

 Lettering shall be oriented on the plan in such a

manner to be legible from the lower right corner.

 Line spacing should be at least half of the height of the

text that is being inserted, unless otherwise noted.

NOTE: All height and width values are given as a scale factor. Multiply the value by the
scale to compute actual height.

1.2 Symbols

Appendix B shows the recommended standard symbols to be used.

• All existing signal equipment shall be shown as a thin,

(weight = 1), dashed line.

• All proposed signal equipment shall be shown as a

thicker, (weight = 3), solid line.

1.3 Dimensions and Leader Lines

Dimensions: Straight lines shall be used for dimensions and shall

be referenced to fixed points (i.e., BCR’s, curbs, etc.). Do not
reference dimensions to any objects that can be removed or
relocated. Dimensions and text shall be oriented on the plan in
such a manner to be legible from the lower right corner.

Table–2 shows the typical items that require dimensions and how
they should be dimensioned:

Curb Markings (i.e. Red Curb) BCR / ECR, Along Curb
*Typically, pole locations are indicated on the pole schedule.

Leader Lines: Leader Lines shall be used to reference a notation

or construction note to an object or item on the plan. Avoid crossing
leader lines with dimension lines and other leader lines.

Curved Leader Lines: Curved leader lines can be used to call out
more than one item at once. Use a straight-line bracket for notes
with two or more lines.

First Line
Second Line

3-point Leader Lines: A 3-point leader line can be used in

conjunction with a construction note call out box.

Call Out Boxes: Call out boxes shall be 6 X 6 on a 20 scale and

have a number that references a Construction Note.

1.4 Sample Plan Sheet

Appendix H shows sample plans that will be used as reference in

the layout of new traffic signal plans, modified/clouded traffic signal
plans, signing and striping plans, and utility plans.

2.0 PLAN LAYOUT

Before a traffic signal plan is drafted, it is necessary to make a preliminary

evaluation of the arrangement of the intersection. The process of plan
layout is described in this section. All the traffic signal elements should be
considered when preparing a plan. The sample plans provided in
Appendix H show each item and their recommended locations. An
electronic copy of each of the items can be obtained from the County.

2.1 Base Plan

2.1.1 Plan Sheet

All plans and traffic signal modification drawings shall be

prepared on a 2 feet by 3 feet size sheet with 1” minimum
margins (See Appendix H - Sample Plans).

2.1.2 Scale

All traffic signal plans shall be drawn at a scale of 1” = 20’.

All traffic signal modification drawings shall be drawn

proportionally but may also be drawn at a scale of 1” = 20’.

All signing and striping plans shall be drawn at a scale of

1” = 40’.

2.1.3 North Arrow

The North arrow should be placed in the upper left-hand

corner of the plan and to the right of the Signal Phase
Diagram. The north arrow shall point either straight up or
towards the left as shown below.

4
 2.1.4 Intersection Orientation

The intersection should be centered on the plan sheet.

Streets should be oriented on the plan in such a manner as
to cause the north arrow to point up or towards the left. The
major or main street should be placed horizontal on the
sheet.

Show street center lines, street names, County-City

boundaries, curb lines (or edge of pavement if no curb exists
or is being proposed), Right-of-Way lines, BCR, ECR, and
existing/proposed access ramps. Cross gutters and local
depressions shall only be shown if necessary to justify
proposed design, especially in placement of detector loops.

2.1.5 Title Block

The Title Block shall be placed on the bottom right corner of

the plan. The Title Block should include all information as
seen in Figure 2.1.A.

operation of the traffic signal at the intersection.

The Phase Diagrams should be drawn as shown in figure

2.1.E. The phase diagrams should be placed at the upper
left-hand corner of the plan and shall be labeled as either
Existing or Proposed. If a change in operation is

the Existing and/or Proposed Signal Phase Diagram as
illustrated on the sample plan in Appendix H.

2.1.17 Pole Schedule

The Pole Schedule shows the inventory of the poles and

pole equipment being used at an intersection. Each item
shall be labeled whether it is Existing (E), New (N), or
Relocated (R). When there is a majority of one type of
equipment (Existing, New, or Relocated), the following can
be written below the pole schedule instead of labeling each
item: “All equipment is existing unless otherwise noted.”

All abbreviations or symbols used in the pole schedule shall

be identified below the pole schedule.

The Pole Schedule shall be placed at the lower-left of the

plan as illustrated in the sample plan in Appendix H. The
pole schedule should be in the format as shown in Figure

Appendix C shows typical General Notes used by the

County. These notes can be modified, or additional ones
created, to reflect the work to be performed.

2.1.21 Construction Notes

Construction Notes should be placed at the bottom right-

hand side of the plan as illustrated on the sample plan in
Appendix H.

Construction Notes shall be used to describe specific work to

be performed. All Construction Notes shall have a number
in a call out box assigned to the note and listed in numeric,

street lighting pull-boxes (slpb) shall be labeled.

Conductor Schedules are not required for intersections in

County jurisdiction, however, other agencies may require
them at shared intersections or 100% City intersections (this
may depend on who maintains the intersection). If required,
the agency’s guidelines for the conductor schedule may
need to be followed.

2.2.4 Signing, Striping, and Markings

All existing and proposed signing, striping, and pavement

and curb markings shall be shown and labeled in
conformance with County legend and abbreviations. See
Appendix A for Striping Line Styles.

the installation or modification of signal and/or lighting
equipment. These include box culverts, catch basins, catch
basin connector (outlet drain) pipes, water valves, manholes,
Edison vaults, telephone vaults, pull-boxes, etc. The vaults
should be shown with the full subsurface dimensions with
surface access shown either square or round. Show storm
drain mains or laterals if they are in the area of any proposed
conduits, including those crossing the roadway.

2.2.6 Underground and Overhead Utilities

medium and high-pressure gas lines), Edison underground
and overhead lines, telephone ducts and cables, cable
company conduits, sewer lines, and/or any utilities that may

signal and streetlighting conduits or cables.

All utilities shall be called out as to size, material, type, utility

owner and offset, and located on plan in their proper place
with respect to centerline, curb line, or property line. High

electrical lines shall be called out. Utilities which are

13
 abandoned shall be called out, and any single utility wider
than 2 feet shall be shown using two lines separated to
indicate the outside extents of the facility. Projects that
occur within Caltrans’ jurisdiction or that use federal (FHWA)
funding shall identify and call out utilities per Caltrans’
requirements for such.

For intersections with extensive utilities, a separate utility

plan may need to be prepared as illustrated on the sample
utility plans in Appendix H.
