Abstract
- A work zone is an area of roadway with construction, maintenance, or utility work activities. A work zone is typically marked by signs, channelizing devices, barriers, pavement markings, and/or work vehicles. It extends from the first warning sign or rotating/strobe lights on a vehicle to the end road work sign or the last temporary traffic control device. As road reconstructions are an opportunity to eliminate or mitigate the risk of unsafe situations with relatively small and short-term investments, it is necessary to enable the preparation of road works in the most efficient way possible, with maximum safety for all road users in road work zones, both drivers and workers. For users who are not familiar with the network, the work zone can be a potential place for accidents. The marking of the work zone on the road is carried out with the help of vertical, horizontal and light traffic signals, and its provision is carried out with appropriate equipment. Managing traffic during construction is necessary to minimize traffic delays, maintain motorist and worker safety, complete roadwork in a timely manner, and maintain access for businesses and residents. Effective work zone traffic management includes assessing work zone impacts and documenting strategies for mitigating the impacts in a transportation management plan. Work zone traffic management strategies should be identified based on the project constraints, construction phasing/staging plan, type of work zone, and anticipated work zone impacts. Once these strategies are implemented, they need to be monitored to ensure they effectively manage work zone impacts. The aim of this paper is to define the traffic regime, i.e. the traffic signaling and equipment during the rehabilitation and repair of state road R1301, section Ohrid - Sveti Naum, subdivision Konjsko - BC Sveti Naum.
