Street Works Manual

Abstract:

The Street Works Manual provides new policies governing work on city streets, and clearly presents procedures for notice, approval and execution of such work. These new policies and the manual’s presentation of permit procedures are designed to deliver higher quality street surfaces, fewer transportation capacity reductions, and a more efficient construction environment to the people and businesses of New York City. The manual is intended as a resource for all parties that perform work in New York City streets, from utilities and contractors installing, replacing and repairing underground infrastructure to developers replacing roadways and sidewalks adjacent to building sites and homeowners performing their own sidewalk repairs.
