摘要：	The different aspects that should be considered in making decisions on nighttime construction operations are identified and investigated in light of the current state of knowledge and practice. A state-of-the-art review was conducted of the current practices in nighttime operations by highway agencies, the main advantages and disadvantages, and the effect of nighttime shifts on factors such as traffic, construction, society, and the environment. Surveys were sent to state Departments of Transportation, Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) districts and IDOT contractors. The surveys involved questions about nighttime construction operations in practice and the factors affected by scheduling work during nighttime. An Excel software package that can be used by personnel to make an informed comparison between day shifts and night shifts was developed. This software is to complement other important information available to decision makers in making decisions on nighttime construction operations.
