SPR-4522: Design of Educational Material & Public Awareness Campaigns for Improving Work Zone Driver Safety

The overall goal of this project is to improve work zone driver safety in Indiana through driver education and public awareness campaigns. This project will build on the findings of the public opinion survey under SPR 4441 and inputs from Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) Statewide Safety and INDOT’s back of queue Task Force. The project goal is broken down into two specific objectives: (1) prepare educational materials to be incorporated into driver’s education or training curriculum prior to taking driving test and getting a driver’s license issued, and (2) design a public awareness campaign.
