4 Evaluating Roadway Construction Work Zone Interventions Doug Ammons, Steve Berardinelli, Jennifer Beaupre, Dave Fosbroke, Chris Griffin, Robert Hammer, Mat Hause, Scott Hendricks, Gary Mowrey, Brad Newbraugh, Kara Perritt, John Powers, Stephanie Pratt, Justin Tolpa, Todd Ruff, Bill Schiffbauer

5 Project Organization Roadway Work Zone Intervention Evaluations Morgantown, WV Pittsburgh, PA Spokane, WA Worker Exposure Measurement HASARD Proximity Warning Devices Blind Area Determination Work Zone Analysis System Detection Zones Internal Traffic Control Plans Site Access / Partnering Case Definition HSRB/OMB/Photo Release Research Staff Safety State Transportation Departments Construction Companies Engineering Consultants Labor Unions Construction Trade Associations Equipment Manufacturers FHWA, OSHA

6 The Problem Preventing workers from being run over by construction trucks and equipment.

7 The Project Goals Limit exposure of workers-on-foot to construction traffic. Focus on blind areas around construction vehicles and equipment. Develop exposure monitoring system(s) Evaluate injury prevention measures

8 The Interventions Proximity Warning Systems Internal Traffic Control Plans

9 Proximity Warning Systems Evaluate off-theshelf technology including: Radar Sonar Cameras Tag-based systems

10 Camera Systems

11 Radar Sonar Sensors

12 Camera and Radar Camera Radar

13 Proximity Warning Systems: Data collection methods Video Alarm overlay Alarm data Warning system alarms

20 Background: Worker Deaths in Work Zones 910 worker deaths in work zones from (91%) were vehicle or equipment-related (traffic vehicle, construction vehicle, or both)

21 Worker Fatalities in Roadway Construction Trend from (n=910) 100 Deaths Year Source: Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries, special research file (excludes NYC)

22 Worker Fatalities in Roadway Work Zones, by Vehicle Type and Year, (n=797) Deaths Construction vehicle Traffic vehicle Both Year Source: Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries, special research file (excludes NYC)

28 Blind Areas

29 Definition of Blind Area A blind area is the area around a vehicle or piece of construction equipment that is not visible to the operators, either by direct line-of-sight or indirectly by use of internal and external mirrors.

30 Vehicle Blind Spots Running over people Running over materials Striking other equipment and vehicles Rollovers Contact with utilities

31 Area of fully obstructed view

32 Non-Construction Vehicle Blind Spot Measurements

58 Internal Traffic Control Plans

59 Why Develop an Internal Traffic Control Plan? Coordinate vehicle/equipment movement inside the work zone Limit exposure of workers on foot to construction traffic Reduce hazards for equipment operators

60 Definition of Internal Traffic Control Plans (ITCP) STRATEGIES TO CONTROL THE FLOW OF CONSTRUCTION WORKERS, VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT INSIDE THE WORKZONE

61 Traffic Control Plans

62 TCP ITCP PARALLELS TCP TYPICAL ITCP MODEL RESPONSIBLE PERSON REQUIRED BY MUTCD COMPETENT PERSON CONCEPT

63 PRINCIPLES OF SAFE CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC CONTROL Reducing the need to back up equipment Limiting access points to work zones Establishing pedestrian-free areas where possible Establishing work zone layouts commensurate with type of equipment

64 PRINCIPLES OF SAFE CONSTRUCTION TRAFFIC CONTROL Providing signs within the work zone to give guidance to pedestrians, equipment and trucks Designing buffer spaces to protect pedestrians from errant vehicles or work zone equipment

65

66

67 ITCP COMPONENTS NOTES PAGE LEGEND WORK AREA DIAGRAMS

68 SAFETY POINTS 1. Truck spotter stays at paver 2. Stage trucks to minimize backing 3. No walking behind backing trucks, in front of paving machine, across hot mat, or over trailer tongue. PERSONNEL Truck Drivers Truck Spotter Paver Operator Roller Operators Inspector Superintendent Test Personnel NOTES PAGE SAFETY POINTS PERSONNEL EQUIPMENT EQUIPMENT Oiler Trucks Dump Trucks Pavers Rollers

69 Detailed Notes

70 Safety Points No workers in traffic zone Spotter uses hands free radio to talk to trucks No workers on foot between a backing truck and the paver Truck spotter remains at paver until truck stops Inspectors remain away from paving train and notify spotter before obtaining samples

76 Paving Model Plan Site #2 Ingress

77 Paving Model Plan Site #2 Egress

78 STEPS IN PREPARATION OF ITCPS Review TCP and other contract documents Determine site-specific ITCP needs Draw work space Add pedestrian and equipment paths Locate staging areas Prepare notes and plan

79 Internal Traffic Control Plans Questions Can the need for backing be reduced or eliminated? Can the number of vehicle access points into the work space be reduced? Can pedestrian-free zones be established? Can the work space accommodate the equipment being used? Do any physical features of the site place operators at risk?
