Specifications include, but are not limited to: The purpose of this contract is to provide for the expeditious removal of disabled or accident vehicles, and small non-hazardous debris, from the Reading Area Freeway thus reducing the traffic delays and congestion that result from those breakdowns, accidents, and spills. Rapid removal is made possible by the presence of Service Patrol Vehicles (SPV) located on the Freeway during the hours of peak traffic. The continuous service patrol vehicle facilitates a much quicker response time to non-recurring incidents such as breakdowns and accidents, thus reducing total time needed to clear the incident from the highway and restore normal traffic flow. All Freeway patrol services will be provided FREE OF CHARGE to the motorist. The Department will contract with a private towing company to provide the specialized services and will pay the contracted company at the per service patrol vehicle per hour rate established in the contract.
