| 摘要： | Work zone safety continues to be a high priority issue for traffic engineering professionals and highway agencies. Based on the Fatal Accident Reporting System (FARS), work zone fatalities climbed to an all time high in 1994. The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act specifically required the Secretary of Transportation to develop and implement a work zone safety program that will improve work zone safety at construction sites and to develop uniform accident reporting for fatalities, injuries and certain specified accident types which include work zone accidents. This study developed specific recommendations toward that goal: 1) uniform definitions of "work zone type" and "work zone crash" should be developed and implemented; 2) methods for determining exposure in work zones should be developed; 3) "smart" data collecting and reporting software should be considered in developing new accident reporting technologies and 4) a more detailed understanding of the relationships between work zone designs and crashes is required. |
