Temporary Traffic Control — Layout Selection by Maintenance Activity

Author/Presenter: Kuehl, Renae; Jackels, Jon; Marti, Michael
Abstract:

The intent of this document is to help local agencies identify the appropriate work zone layout based on the maintenance activity that will be performed. This document focuses on low volume roads only and includes both a rural and urban guide that are intended to be used as supplemental guidance to the Temporary Traffic Control Work Zone Layouts Field Manual (dated January 2014). The information presented here does not replace or override anything within the field manual. Agencies must follow the standards and guidance contained in the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MN MUTCD), including the Field Manual. This document also includes a copy of a letter that was written and submitted to the MUTCD Committee in April 2016, requesting changes for low volume roadways. A summary of training opportunities is included as well.
