Human Science and Professional Approaches to Improve Road Worker and Driver Safety on Workzones
On the French national road network, over the past ten years, from one to two road workers are killed and thirty injured during interventions every year. The number of killed and severely injured is … [Read more...] about Human Science and Professional Approaches to Improve Road Worker and Driver Safety on Workzones
Investigating the Contributing Factors to Crashes With and Without the Presence of Work Zone Workers Using Machine Learning Techniques
As the nation’s roadways continue to deteriorate, the presence of work zones on US highways is anticipated to increase, highlighting the crucial need for the safety of both work zone workers and road … [Read more...] about Investigating the Contributing Factors to Crashes With and Without the Presence of Work Zone Workers Using Machine Learning Techniques
Investigating Patterns and Causes of Struck-By Accidents in Roadway Construction Projects
Struck-by accidents involving vehicle intrusions and heavy equipment in construction work zones, particularly utility systems, highways, streets and bridge projects, pose significant safety risks. … [Read more...] about Investigating Patterns and Causes of Struck-By Accidents in Roadway Construction Projects
Analysis of Traffic Accidents in Construction Zone Reconstruction and Expansion Based on Text Mining
