Author/Presenter: Theiss, LuAnn; Ullman, Gerald L.
Abstract:

This report presents proposals for temporary traffic control strategies aimed at reducing worker safety risks due to distracted driving in work zones. Development of these proposals was based on state-of-the-practice review and field evaluation of selected strategies. These proposals will be of interest to transportation agencies and contractors seeking to apply new technologies for promoting safety in work zones for both drivers and workers.
