Proceedings of a conference held on September 28 - October 1, 1986 that assessed the state of practice of corridor traffic management during major highway reconstruction. The objectives of the conference were: to provide an educational forum for exchanging technical information on planning, implementing, and managing highway reconstruction to minimize traffic disruption; to ensure that project planners consider contract administration items that can minimize traffic impacts without affecting construction quality; to promote TSM actions as means of managing travel demand and easing congestion; and to identify recommendations or related research to address issues discussed at the conference.
