Guides for Choosing Work Zone Layouts for Low-Volume Roads

What Was the Need?
The Temporary Traffic Control Zone Layouts Field Manual is a valuable tool that MnDOT offers to help improve work zone safety for both workers and drivers. The field manual describes appropriate work zone layouts, including the safety devices that are needed, for a wide range of work zones. Users of the manual decide which layout is appropriate for a given situation depending on a variety of factors, including number of lanes, the duration of the work zone, the location of the work, or features such as intersections and grade crossings.
