4 MILES PER HOUR & STOP TIME 30 MPH = 44 Feet per Second 50 MPH = 73 Feet per Second 60 MPH = 88 Feet per Second 70 MPH = 103 Feet per Second 100 MPH = 146 Feet per Second
5 PERCEPTION / REACTION TIME Mental Process 1. Sensation something in the road! 2. Perception/recognition recognize, identify! 3. Situational awareness speed, time to impact, consequence, escape route! 4. Response selection decide what to do! Elapsed time; 1.5 to >2.5 seconds
6 PERCEPTION / REACTION TIME Average Movement Time Foot to brake 0.2 second Device Response Time Braking begins 0.1 second Total elapsed time (best case) before vehicle begins slowing seconds
7 PERCEPTION / REACTION 55 mph (80.67 ft/s) + Stopping Distance Time before braking begins 1.8 sec. ( ) x ft/s = Distance Traveled ft. + Stopping ft. TOTAL DISTANCE TRAVELED ft

10 PERRP: PERRP s Mission: The role and mission of PERRP is to ensure public employees in Ohio have safe and healthy working conditions. Public employers must furnish to each public employee a workplace free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm. This fundamental requirement is the foundation of the Public Employment Risk Reduction Act (the Act) which is also referred to as House Bill (HB) 308 and was enacted
11 Primary Reasons for Enforcing the Improve worker safety Work zones are one of the primary locations of public employee fatalities Minimize delay for motorists Manual FHWA

13 Four Little Words Should (Voluntary) Shall (Mandatory) Must (Mandatory) May (Voluntary) If a standard has a mandatory (shall or must) provision, then there are no options. If a standard has a voluntary provision (should or may) then the employer must consider those provisions to be minimum expectations, however, they can modify them to fit their circumstances.
14 Ohio Fatalities in Motor Vehicle Traffic Crashes and Work Zones Highway Crashes WZ Crashes Total , , , , , , , , , , Not available 186 people died in vehicle crashes in Ohio work zones in the eleven-year period from 2002 to 2012 (the most recent information available).
15 Importance of Protection Effective Temporary Traffic Control" saves lives Worker fatalities in Ohio workzones Worker fatalities nationally in workzones Source: workzonesafety.org
16 According to ODOT (2003 to 2012): 7 ODOT employees have been killed in construction zones in Ohio in the last decade from 2003 to ,945 vehicle crashes occurred in Ohio work zones in that same 10-year period 20,590 vehicle crashes occurred in Ohio work zones when workers were present 19,988 of the total vehicle crashes were rear end collisions The top three causes of work zone crashes are: Following too closely Failure to control Improper lane changes Excessive speed has directly resulted in more than 1,500 work zone crashes since 2003 Across the nation, you are more likely to be injured or killed in a work zone on a dry and sunny August afternoon than any other time of year
17 What Is a Temporary Traffic Control Zone? A TTC zone may include: o Work zone o Roadway incident o Special event FHWA FHWA

27 Transition Area Drums & Cones 36 lit/reflective drums 28 & 42 reflective cones. 27
28 Drums and Cones Standard requires uniformity for color of all drums If drums, cones, or tubular markers are used to channelize pedestrians, they shall be located such that there are no gaps between the bases of the devices, in order to create a continuous bottom. The height of each individual drum, cone, or tubular marker shall be no less than (36 in) to be detectable to users of long lanes.
29 Cones Cones shall be: Predominantly orange Made of a material that can be struck without causing damage to the impacting vehicle. For daytime and low speed roadways, cones shall be not less than 18 in in height. When cones are used on freeways and other high-speed highways or at night on all highways, or when more conspicuous guidance is needed, cones shall be a minimum of (28 in) in height. For nighttime use, cones shall be retro-reflectorized or equipped with lighting devices for maximum visibility.

37 Example of 45 MPH Traffic Control Zone -Signs 350 apart -Transition cones minimum -Cone spacing 40 along taper and 45 after taper -Buffer space 220
38 Termination Area Optional but strongly recommended. Well worth the short additional time that it takes to install. Why wouldn t you get your crews into this simple, wise habit? 38

55 Duration of Work Short Term: 0 15 minutes. Truck emergency flashers and beacon lights minutes. Truck emergency flashers, beacon lights, correct size and amount of cones placed around work zone and a minimum of one correctly placed advanced warning sign. Correct arrow board strongly recommended - consider the location, crew/public safety, traffic volume, liability etc. 55
56 Duration of Work Intermediate Term: 60 minutes 3 days Truck emergency flashers, beacon lights, correct size and amount of cones placed around the work zone and all correctly placed advanced warning signs on all affected streets. Correct arrow board as required. 56
57 Duration of Work Long Term: Beyond 3 days. Permanently mounted, correct advanced warning signs on all affected streets. Truck emergency flashers, beacon lights, correct size and amount of cones placed around the work zone. Correct arrow board as required. 57
58 WORK DURATION Five Categories: Long-Term Stationary Intermediate-term Stationary Short-term Stationary Short Duration > 3 days > 12 hrs to 3 days includes overnight 1 hr to 12 hrs < 1 hr Mobile moves intermittently with stop times < 15 minutes or moves continuously
59 Mobile Work Often involve frequent short stops for activities Such as litter cleanup, pothole patching, or utility operations, and are similar to short-duration operations NCOSHA
60 60 They Do Help!
61 Mobile Work o TTC zones may include: Warning signs, high-intensity rotating, flashing, oscillating, or strobe lights on a vehicle, flags, and/or channelizing devices Flaggers A shadow vehicle equipped with an arrow panel or a sign following the work vehicle Appropriately colored and marked vehicles with signs, flags, high-intensity rotating, flashing, oscillating, or strobe lights, truck-mounted attenuators, and arrow panels or portable changeable message signs may follow a train of moving work vehicles
62 Work Zone Safety Maintenance of a Work Zone Cover or remove signs when not in use! Clean all traffic control equipment. Drive the zone after set up and through out the day - consider who may be coming through your set up at any time! Recognizing problems: skid marks, auto parts, damaged traffic control devices. 62 Always use Common Sense and Good Judgment!
63 Worker Safety Consideration - Training All workers should be trained on: Working safely adjacent to vehicular traffic Work zone traffic control techniques Device Usage Safety devices Traffic control devices Placement of traffic control devices Relevant OSHA Regulation 29 CFR , Safety Training and Education
