Abstract:This white paper summarizes the results from three training classes on queue analysis in work zones. Accurately predicting the mobility impacts of work zones will enable designers to identify effective countermeasures to improve mobility and safety in work zones. The course provides hands-on training on basic analytical methods (queue analysis methods) to compute work zone performance measures such as capacity, speed, queue length, delay, and users’ costs. The capabilities and limitations of WorkZoneQ-Pro and the Highway Capacity Manual procedure for work zones are discussed, and basic guidance on how to use them is presented. The first and second courses were in-person and lasted 1.5 days. The third course was virtual and lasted only one day with reduced content. The evaluation results indicate that the participants very much liked the trainings and learned a lot. The in-person classes had slightly higher scores than the virtual class. The average scores were 4.4–4.9 (out of 5) for the in-person classes and 4.2–4.9 (out of 5) for the online class.
