| 项目名称： | RES2023-23: Strategies for Improved Driver Behavior Within Work Zones |
| 摘要： | Work zone (WZ) has long been identified as a potential contributor to traffic fatalities and delays. Despite significant technological advancements that have improved WZ operations, societal concerns about safety and mobility near WZs persist, and Tennessee highways are no exception. The gravity of the problem and the critical nature of instituting solutions to reduce WZ fatalities is evident from the most recent year's WZ crash statistics (2021) of Tennessee, where 3,784 crashes were reported, out of which 12.5% of crashes involved a distracted driver. However, knowledge is scarce on what control/enforcement measures should be implemented, their associated benefits, and drivers' attitude towards these measures. Furthermore, there is insufficient evidence on how the design and positioning of control/enforcement measures influence driver behavior. |
