DEC Unpaved Forest Road Handbook
This is a great resource from the NY Department of Environmental Conservation on designing, surveying, and building “Public Forest Access Roads” (PFARs): https://extapps.dec.ny.gov/docs/lands_forests_pdf/sfunpavedroad.pdf
While these roads are build for 18-wheeler log trucks, we want to make similar roads able to accommodate a tractor and wagon (forestry). This will allow access also by ATV and brush-fire truck (program and safety).
Important pages:
- 10 design considerations on pg 3.
- Table 1 road specs on pg 4.
- Figures 3-7: profiles for road cuts (side-to-side)
We’ll be using the instructions on pages 8-9 for “Reconnaissance Survey” for the Wednesday PM activity.
