On-site construction activities can result in significant mobility and safety impacts to road users. The presence of work zone can also result in inconvenience to local business and community, noise and environmental impacts. Minimizing the adverse impacts of work zones has become a higher priority especially since the inception of the FHWA Rule on Work Zone Safety and Mobility (23 CFR 630 Subpart J). Work zone road user costs (WZ RUC) provide the economic basis for quantifying these adverse impacts which can then be used for effective decision-making to improve work zone mobility and safety. This report provides practitioners with information on WZ RUC analysis concepts and their applications using case studies drawn from real world projects. WZ RUC primarily refers to monetized components of mobility and safety impacts; increasingly, non-monetary and qualitative components, such as environmental, business, and societal impacts, are being utilized. In this report, each of the monetary components is explored and the computations of these components are illustrated using examples. It presents step-by-step procedures to derive unit costs for monetary components. It lists the cost sources for each cost component as well as the ways to update those using economic indices. It also explores input requirements and various tools available for use in WZ RUC analysis. This report presents the application of both monetary and qualitative components of WZ RUC in MOT alternative analysis using a decision analysis framework. Another key application of WZ RUC is in selecting appropriate project delivery/contracting strategies to minimize WZ RUCs and related impacts through early project completion. Approaches for determining an appropriate level of incentives and disincentives are also discussed. Three “real-world” case studies from the Highways for LIFE program are presented to demonstrate the applications of WZ RUCs in selecting the preferred Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) alternatives and project delivery/contracting strategies.

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.

Historically, the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) has used QUEWZ to estimate road capacities for proposed lane closures which fall outside of the Permitted Lane Closure Map, as per Policy No. 21-008(P). The resulting capacity is included in the process for predicting queue lengths outlined in Section 640-13.2 of ODOT's Traffic Engineering Manual. QUEWZ is also identified in ODOT's Innovative Contracting Manual to estimate the capacities for calculating road user costs. The current problem is that QUEWZ is not compatible with current versions of Windows and no longer supported by the developer. Therefore, ODOT needs a replacement for QUEWZ. A new queue analysis tool was developed to meet the needs of the ODOT District Work Zone Traffic Managers for conducting queue length analyses. It is based on the 2010 Highway Capacity Manual capacity formulation for short term work zones and estimates the size and length of the queue and the associated delay for up to 24, 1 hour time intervals. A new road user cost tool was also developed, which calculates the travel costs, operating costs and crash costs of roadway construction projects, suitable for establishing monetary incentives for innovative contracting methods. These tools replace the use of QUEWZ and two existing ODOT spreadsheets.

This research was developed to produce usable and meaningful estimates for work zone capacities under a variety of roadway and traffic conditions, work zone configurations, and lane closure scenarios within Texas. Using data collected at eighteen work zone sites, the research presents updated guidance for expected capacities of various freeway work zone lane closure configurations. In addition, models used to evaluate traffic conditions in work zones were evaluated and recommendations for their use were made. Finally, recommendations concerning road user cost analysis for freeway construction projects are included.
