The full closure strategic analysis was conducted to create a decision process whereby full roadway
;
closures for construction and maintenance activities can be evaluated and approved or denied by CDOT
;
Traffic personnel. The study reviewed current full closure practices in Colorado and throughout the
;
country, gathered stakeholder input, and employed an iterative development process to reach a systematic
;
decision tool that can be applied to judging the merits of full closure scenarios. A number of case studies
;
were created to more fully understand the methodology and adjust the tool to best match real-world
;
scenarios. Project deliverables include a technical report and a series of electronic forms that can be used
;
by CDOT to work through the process.
;
Implementation
;
Currently, CDOT Staff considers full closure opportunities on a case-by-case basis, applying engineering
;
judgment and various factors to weigh the decision. This analysis provides a uniform decision process that
;
CDOT Staff can use to efficiently and effectively evaluate and approve full closures. Use of the decision
;
tool is anticipated to broaden the consideration and use of full closures for highway work and ensure that
;
they are successfully implemented.
