12 <strong>VRIOGS</strong> <strong>012.2.1</strong> REVISION A<br />

e) Cable route markers shall be placed beside the trench and not directly over it. And<br />

shall remain close to fences or fixed objects where possible and be positioned so<br />

that they are unlikely to damaged by track maintenance or other vehicles. The cable<br />

route markers shall not obstruct footpaths, walkways or vehicle access ways.<br />

f) The Constructor shall prepare a plan in tabulation format to record the offset<br />

distance of the centre line of the buried cable trench to the inside running edge of<br />

the nearest rail. The plan shall be issued prior to the commencement of trenching<br />

operations and offset distances shall be recorded as the work progresses. The data<br />

shall be transferred to the final signalling drawings for incorporation into the final “as<br />

in service and constructed” signal book of drawings. Measurements shall depict the<br />

depth of the installed cabling. The location of all cable joints shall be recorded in the<br />

exact same manner as for the cable route, and shall be shown in a tabulation format<br />

and also on all cable running plans.<br />

g) In station and yard areas the cable route markers shall be mounted on posts with<br />

500 mm protrusion above ground (or on an adjacent fence line where available). In<br />

all other areas markers shall be mounted on posts with 800mm protrusion above<br />

ground.<br />

h) In station or yard areas they shall not obstruct footpaths, walkways or vehicle<br />

access ways.<br />

i) Cable route markers shall be placed close to a fence or other fixed structure and in<br />

such a position that they are not likely to be run over by track maintenance or other<br />

vehicles.<br />

j) Cable route marker signs may be installed on Overhead Wiring Structures where<br />

approved. The bonding agent used to attach the marker to the structure shall not<br />

cause deleterious effects to the structure or its protective coating and shall be a type<br />

approved product.<br />
