IN-PERSON TRAINING: Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety in Work Zones

Commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) contribute disproportionately to serious work zone crashes, and understanding their operational needs is critical for designing and managing safer work zones. This training provides a comprehensive overview of CMV-related crash trends, operational challenges, engineering strategies, and coordinated approaches that strengthen safety and mobility. In this interactive full day training, participants will explore the Safe System principles, the Safe System Roadway Design Hierarchy, contributing risk factors, Transportation Management Plan components, enforcement strategies, educational outreach, smart work zone technologies, and the full CMV Safety in Work Zones Checklist. The training is designed to equip practitioners with practical, immediately applicable tools to improve CMV safety throughout the entire project lifecycle—from planning through project closeout.
