Book Description
Research was performed to determine total costs (construction and road user costs) and safety impacts associated with traffic control through work zones on rural four-lane, divided highways using single lane closure (SLC) versus two-lane, two-way traffic operations (TLTWO). An informational guide for use in selecting cost-effective traffic control strategies for proposed construction projects was also prepared. Construction data were collected from 51 construction projects in 11 States, and traffic capacity delay studies were conducted at 25 projects in 10 States. Guidelines are presented in this report for selection of the best traffic control alternative between SLC and TLTWO. A simplified procedure to estimate road user costs for SLC and TLTWO traffic control strategies is also included. This guide is Volume II of a two-volume series. Volume I (FHWA-RD-89-209) is the final report.

Book Description
This guide is designed to provide direction on the monitoring of traffic characteristics. It begins with a discussion of the structure of traffic characteristics monitoring and traffic counting. The next two sections cover vehicle classification and truck weighing. The last section presents the coordinated record formats for station identification, traffic volume, vehicle classification, and truck weight data.

Book Description
This document presents a synthesis of current information and operating practices related to roadside safety and is developed in metric units. The roadside is defined as that area beyond the traveled way (driving lanes) and the shoulder (if any) of the roadway itself. The focus of this guide is on safety treatments that minimize the likelihood of serious injuries when a driver runs off the road. This guide replaces the 1989 AASHTO "Roadside Design Guide."
