摘要: |
The FHWA's Office of Program Quality Coordination (OPQC) conducted a quality improvement review entitled Meeting the Customer's Needs for Mobility and Safety During Construction and Maintenance Operations between December 1997 and June 1998. As part of this review the OPQC review team (hereafter refer to as the Review Team) prepared a Model Work Zone Traffic Management Program to assist all transportation agencies in their continuous improvement efforts. This model program was developed by combining traffic management concepts reported in research studies and papers with the effective techniques currently being used by States to minimize motorist delays and enhance work zone safety. During the scanning portion of this review, the Review Team discussed these traffic management concepts and techniques with transportation officials in order to validate them. The Review Team concluded the key ingredients listed below are essential to any Traffic Management Program (TMP) if it is to be effective in minimizing motorist delays and enhancing work zone safety. While the model is idealistic, it is presented to provide transportation agencies with an effective tool for benchmarking. |
