Debra Kennaugh, PE
Principles of work zone maintenance of traffic include safety prioritization, avoiding inhibiting traffic, guiding motorists in a clear and positive way, routine inspection of traffic control elements and constant attention to roadside safety
 
Requirements for maintenance of traffic devices must fulfill a need, command attention, convey a clear and simple meaning, command respect of road users and give adequate time for proper response
 
Components of maintenance of traffic plans are discussed as they include numerous design components
 
Work zone devices consist of various traffic control devices including, but not limited to advance warning signs, channelizing devices, arrow panels and changeable message signs
 
Maintenance of traffic planning consists of the development of a specific set of sheets detailing traffic control during the construction phase
 
Transportation management plan design should be developed in distinct phases to accommodate all aspects of the roadway construction
