Resource Abstract:

Safety in street and highway work zones is an area of emphasis for the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Many improvements in work-zone safety are being implemented. One of these improvements is the increased use of speed limits to control vehicle speeds through street and highway work zones. Proper and uniform application of these speed limits should improve the safety of the highway worker and the traveling public.
