SPR-3901: Synthesis Study: Best Practices for Maximizing Driver Attention to Work Zone Signs (End of Queue Warning Devices)

Methods for attracting driver's attention either within or in advance of those work zones will be the study focus and the intent will be to provide a database that will comprehensively review solutions that will alert drivers entering work zones from previously conducted studies. The document will potentially assist INDOT in identifying and selecting candidate solutions for improving driver alertness for future implementation and evaluation in construction work zones.
