  • Abstract:
    The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has led the development of a number of traffic incident management plans and programs throughout the state. These programs address procedural and coordination aspects of managing unplanned events on the highway that impact the flow of traffic. These incidents range from environmental events to stalled vehicles to multi-vehicle crashes to hazardous materials incidents that may impact the shoulder or close the entire highway. It is the intent of the Colorado Department of Transportation to ensure work zones are safe and minimize the impact and delay to motorists. Planning for traffic incidents that occur within work zones is a critical component of reducing delay and increasing the safety and reliability of the highway system. Traffic incident management plans should be developed in a collaborative effort with the emergency response and public safety community and incorporated in the overall work zone management plan. agencies. Each construction project presents unique problems for emergency responders and the management of incidents that occur in the work zone. The intent of these guidelines is to guide and assist the development of programs that meet the needs of the contractor, CDOT, emergency responders, and the motoring public. Figures, appendices, 55p.
