Eight-hundred fifty-seven fatalities occurred in work zones in the United States in 2020. One work zone fatality occurs for every 4 billion vehicle miles of travel and for every $112 million of roadway construction expenditures. This document is supplemental to NCHRP Research Report 1142: Innovative Approaches to Enhancing Safety and Efficiency in Work Zones: A Guide and seeks to identify best practices in leveraging technology to help the traveling public navigate roadway maintenance or construction work zones.
