About
Work zones are a necessary part of the life cycle of our roads and streets. They are characterized by traffic pattern changes, narrowed rights-of-way, the presence of construction workers, and work vehicles frequently entering and leaving construction areas. The key function of work zones is to separate active construction from traffic, so there is a safe area for workers and traffic has a safe route around the work activity.
What Is Our Mission?
The Work Zone Management Program's mission is to mitigate the safety and mobility impacts of work zones. We are working to improve work zones every day, in every way.
