Abstract:

The main goal for this research was to evaluate the effectiveness and practicality of deploying and operating selected WZIA systems in California work zones. The objective was to provide recommendations and guidance to Caltrans on implementing such systems in real-world conditions through field observations and feedback provided by the Caltrans maintenance staff. Selected WZIA systems were procured and tested in active work zone conditions after two crews of Caltrans maintenance workers were provided an opportunity to train with the systems. Worker feedback on the performance and effectiveness of the systems was collected before and after testing in active work zone conditions. The selected WZIA systems were tested in a variety of active work zone conditions to ascertain their capabilities and practicality related to deployment, operation, retrieval, and overall effectiveness in improving work zone safety, while considering potential for worker exposure to traffic during deployment and operation besides other practical considerations. Based on the outcomes of this research, some general guidance and recommendations related to the use of WZIA systems were also developed that can highlight and ensure best practices for future use and implementation of WZIA systems.
