Samenvatting
A practice used during long-term construction activities on divided highways is to allow two-lane, two-way traffic operations (TLTWO) on one roadway while the other roadway is completely closed to traffic. Federal, state, and local officials have become increasingly concerned in recent years about safety problems in TLTWO work zones. This report presents the results of operational and accident studies of 36 construction sites employing either two-lane, two-way operations or lane closure traffic control.
