  • Abstract:
    For 25 years, National Work Zone Awareness Week (NWZAW) has heralded the start of the spring construction season. This April, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and its stakeholders are sponsoring activities to bring nationwide attention to this topic. This week is an annual reminder that work zone safety and mobility for all road users—including motorists and vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, bicyclists, and highway workers on foot—continues to be a relevant issue. Work zones and highway workers are integral to upgrading and maintaining our transportation system. Work zone safety is a critical component of national efforts like the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Roadway Safety Strategy and Vision Zero to reduce serious injuries and deaths. Nationally, for the first time in several years, the rate of work zone fatalities decreased from 2021 to 2022, by 7 percent. All road users can be more vigilant in work zones to improve safety: Work zones are temporary. Actions behind the wheel can last forever.
