The Federal Highway Administration (FHwA) has expressed concern about construction zone safety for over 11 years, but this concern has not always been reflected in the safety provisions made by state highway agencies. Unsafe conditions existed at all of the 26 construction sites visited in seven states. Designs for worksite safety varied widely from state to state and from project to project. Although FHwA has taken some actions to improve driving environments, these actions do not fully address the problems observed. By developing additional guidance on how and when to use traffic control devices, by improving field office inspection procedures, and by providing training, FHwA and the states can greatly improve the safety of motorists, pedestrians, and work crews in highway construction zones.

This study addresses the adequacy of traffic safety in work zones. The specific safety issues discussed in this study are: the usefulness of work zone accident data; the hazards of two-lane, two-way operations without positive separation of traffic on a normally divided highway; the use of truck-mounted attenuators in moving/maintenance operations and at long-term construction sites; the placement of flaggers; the need to identify design changes in work zones that will aid drivers with degraded sensory perceptions resulting from aging, inattentiveness, or impairment; the lack of compliance with existing guidelines for work zone traffic control devices and procedures; and the need for a national work zone safety program. Recommendations concerning these issues were made to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Federal Highway Administration, and the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.

One of the ways a state department of transportation or other transportation agency can address work zone safety and other impacts is to develop and implement a Transportation Management Plan (TMP). The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Research Report 945: Strategies for Work Zone Transportation Management Plans provides a practitioner-ready guidebook on how to select and implement strategies that improve safety and traffic operations in roadway construction work zones. Supplemental materials to the report include NCHRP Web-Only Document 276: Evaluating Strategies for Work ZoneTransportation Management Plans; fact sheets on ramp meter, reversible lane, and truck restrictions; and guidebook appendices.
