The objective of this research is to develop an evaluation methodology to test whether intelligent transportation systems (ITS) investment is a valid solution for work zone traffic mitigation. The methodology considers what performance is required of the proposed ITS deployment to balance the cost of the deployment. The evaluation process uses micro-simulation to analyze the network-wide effects causd by the construction work zone via defined relevant performance measures.
