CTDOT CONNECT DDE GUIDE VOLUME 13 - CONTRACT PLANS PRODUCTION


   M.1.3 Additional Location Plan Sheets


The location plan depicts the approximate area(s) of the project location(s). In most cases the location plan(s) will fit on the title sheet. Additional space will be needed for the Location Plan(s) when a project has multiple locations, towns or is extra-long. The additional location Plans will be placed on contract sheets directly after the Title Sheet as part of the General Subset for the project.

  1. To house the needed Location Plans, create additional 2D Sheet Models in the General Subset dgn.
  2. Place the regular Contract Border Cell to line up with the transient shape.
  3. Reference in the TRU map(s) for the project.
  4. Move, scale, clip to show the location of your project area. Turn off un-needed levels. Clip this Reference file and annotate as needed. The location map should be scaled so road names etc. can be read.
  5. Place a Circle to mark the project location.
