  • Abstract:
    This handbook provides a broad, easy to understand

    reference for temporary traffic control in work zones,

    addressing the safe and efficient accommodation of all road

    users: motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, and those with special

    needs. When impacting a pedestrian facility, provide ten

    calendar days advance notification to the local jurisdiction and

    the National Federation of the Blind of Iowa (www.nfbi.org).

    The information presented is based on standards and

    guidance in the 2009 Edition of the Manual on Uniform

    Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). References to the

    MUTCD sign designations in this handbook are shown in

    parentheses, e.g. (W20-1).

    Not all the recommendations in this handbook will apply

    to every circumstance faced by local agencies, and each

    unique situation may not be addressed. Modifications of

    the typical applications in this handbook will be required to

    adapt to specific field conditions. Therefore, use engineering

    judgment, seeking the advice of experienced professionals

    and supervisors in difficult and complex interpretations.

    This handbook can be used as a reference for temporary

    traffic control in work zones on all city or county roadways.

    However, always check contract documents and local agency

    requirements for any pertinent modifications
