Effectiveness of Work Zone Transportation Management Plan (TMP) Strategies

The objectives of this research are to produce (1) a guidebook to assist work zone practitioners on selecting the most effective and cost efficient transportation management plan (TMP) strategies to implement in a particular construction setting, and (2) a compilation of relevant but unpublished reports prepared by transportation agencies that evaluated the effectiveness of various TMP strategies. The guidebook at a minimum should reflect road type, project type, traffic conditions, and geographic conditions, and it should be presented in a user-friendly format that may include matrices and/or fact sheets. The compilation of relevant reports should provide the full text of each document collected.
