Abstract:The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Office of Operations has issued the attached Guidance, dated October 17, 2018, on the Use of Rolling Roadblock Operations by State and local transportation agencies receiving Federal-aid highway funding. While agencies around the country reference the rolling roadblock technique by a variety of names (including traffic breaks, temporary road closures, pacing operations, and traffic pacing), the term "rolling roadblock" is used here to encompass all similar traffic control techniques used during, but not limited to, highway construction, maintenance, or utility work. This Guidance is issued in response to National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) recommendations following an investigation into the cause and contributing factors of an October 2016 crash between a motorcoach and combination vehicle near Palm Springs, CA resulting in the death of 13 highway users.
