For paving on Local roadways other than NHS and NJDOT jurisdiction on mainline travel lanes equal to or greater than 2,500 feet length and any lane within the project of at least 1,000 feet length, the Department may evaluate the ride quality of the final riding surface of the mainline travel lanes using IRI. Local roadways are defined as municipal and county roads that are not designated as part of the NHS. The Department will use the measured IRI to calculate the pay adjustment (PA) using pay adjustment equation (PAE) type PA4 as specified in Table 401.03.07-7. 1. Smoothness Measurement. The Department will test the longitudinal profile of the final riding surface for ride quality with a Class 1 Inertial Profiling System according to NJDOT R-1. If project conditions preclude the use of the Class 1 Inertial Profiling System, the Department will use a Class 1 Walking Profiler or lightweight profiler. 2. Quality Control Testing. Perform quality control testing during lift placement to ensure compliance with the ride quality requirements specified in Table 401.03.07-8. 3. Preparation for IRI Testing. Notify the RE when all paving is complete and the RE will request IRI testing by independent testing agency. Provide traffic control when the independent testing agency performs IRI testing. Perform mechanical sweeping of the surface before IRI testing. To facilitate auto triggering on laser profilers, place a single line of temporary pavement marking tape perpendicular to the roadway baseline at the beginning and end of each lane, shoulder, and ramp to be tested or as per direction of the independent testing agency. Submit the actual stationing for each temporary pavement marking tape location to the RE. 4. Quality Acceptance. The Department will determine acceptance and provide PA based on the following: a. Pay Adjustment. The acceptable IRI for the roadway pavement will be the target IRI (T) from Table 401.03.07-8 rounded to the nearest whole number for which full payment will be made and will be determined using the latest available current average IRI (C) data. The number of lots for final pay adjustment will be reduced by the number of lots excluded for each segment shown in Table 401.03.07-7.

available current average IRI (C) data. The number of lots for final pay adjustment will be reduced by the number of lots excluded for each segment shown in Table 401.03.07-7. Lots excluded from final PA will be those with the highest recorded IRI numbers for respective roadway and bridge deck segments. A single average IRI value and the corresponding PA for each 0.01 mile lot will be reported. IRI units are in inches per mile.
