Download or read book Work Zone Impacts Assessment written by United States Department of Transportation and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Guide is designed to help transportation agencies develop and/or update their own procedures for assessing and managing the work zone impacts of their road projects throughout the different program delivery stages. Understanding work zone impacts is critical to developing effective work zone transportation management plans (TMPs) that provide for safety, mobility, and quality in maintaining, rehabilitating, and rebuilding the nation's highways. The primary intended audience for this Guide is transportation agency staff, including technical staff (planners, designers, construction/traffic engineers, highway/safety engineers, etc.); management and executive-level staff responsible for setting policy and program direction; field staff responsible for building projects and managing work zones; and staff responsible for assessing performance in these areas. This document also provides support to agencies in their efforts to implement the recently updated work zone regulations. In September 2004, the FHWA published updates to the work zone regulations at 23 CFR 630 Subpart J. The updated rule is referred to as the Work Zone Safety and Mobility Rule (Rule) and applies to all State and local governments that receive Federal-aid highway funding. Transportation agencies are required to comply with the provisions of the Rule by October 12, 2007. The changes made to the regulations broaden the former Rule to better address the work zone issues of today and the future. The Rule provides a decision-making framework that facilitates comprehensive consideration of the broader safety and mobility impacts of work zones across project development stages, and the adoption of additional strategies that help manage these impacts during project implementation. The Rule requires agencies to develop an agency-level work zone safety and mobility policy to support systematic consideration and management of work zone impacts across all stages of project development. Based on the policy, agencies will develop processes and procedures to support implementation of the policy. These include procedures that address work zone impacts assessment, work zone data, work zone training, and process reviews. The Rule also calls for the development of project-level procedures to help agencies assess and manage the work zone impacts of individual projects. While the Rule does not require a specific work zone impacts assessment process/procedure, it recommends that agencies develop and implement systematic procedures to assess work zone impacts in project development, and to manage safety and mobility during project implementation. This document is the last of four guidance documents developed on the Rule, and provides a general approach for conducting work zone impacts assessment and management, as well as many examples of the approaches currently being used by transportation agencies.

Download or read book Development of a Systematic Approach for the Inclusion of Accident Risk Factors in the Calculation of Road User Costs for Construction Zones written by Ana Maria Elias and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Construction sites or work zones create serious disruptions in the normal flow of traffic resulting in major inconveniences for the traveling public. These traffic problems affect the motorists by considerably increasing their travel time because of delays, and even their travel distances in the case of forced detours. The speed changes and detours also impact the operating expenses of the vehicles. Furthermore, and most importantly, these work zones create safety hazards that require special consideration. Reducing construction time, and therefore reducing the amount of extra costs generated, has become a major issue for state highway agencies throughout the United States. Most of the innovative contracting practices for highway construction projects specifically address the reduction in construction time as a means to minimize the negative effect that road work areas have on the motorists and on the general public. Additionally, current legislation and programs, at both state and national levels, are continually emphasizing the need for a better understanding of work zone problems as a means to address the issue of work zone safety. This reality, coupled with the fact that every year more miles of highway are being temporarily closed for rehabilitation and maintenance purposes, makes the analysis of safety at construction sites a very serious matter. This research endeavor represents a comprehensive study of the different problems and variables associated with the development of a new practical approach to address the issue of highway safety in construction zones. Since empirical models require sample sizes which are rather unattainable due to the intrinsic scarcity of construction zone accident data, the problem was studied from the point of view of risk analysis. Monte Carlo simulations were used to develop risk factors. These factors are meant to be included in the calculations of additional user costs originated at work zones, in an effort to optimize length and duration of closures for highway reconstruction/rehabilitation projects. In this way, it will be possible to effectively assess the danger that work zones represent for the traveling public, and therefore, help to minimize their adverse effect on highway safety.
