Common use of Graffiti Control Clause in Contracts

Graffiti Control. The majority of SR 1 within both Santa ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and San ▇▇▇▇ Obispo Counties is located in predominantly rural countryside and therefore the highway facilities are not subject to frequent graffiti. The portion of the Route in the vicinity of the project, including the structure that crosses over the Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ River, however, is located at the north end of the City of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and that structure has been prone to a significant amount of graffiti. The existing structure is supported on 23 pier walls each approximately 34 feet wide. These flat smooth walls are all covered in graffiti. The proposed new structure would be subjected to less graffiti due to the type of support system used to hold up the bridge. The new bridge would be constructed on top of round 4 feet diameter columns instead of the flat pier wall type support system. It is anticipated that these support columns would be subjected to less graffiti than the existing support system due to the reduction in surface area.
