Nationally, work zone fatalities peaked at over 800 per year during the 1990s. Arizona tallied 82 fatal and 5,009 injury accidents in work zones during a five year period. In response to this problem, the objectives of this project included: Characterizing the nature of work zone accidents in Arizona; Reviewing countermeasures used throughout the country, and the effectiveness of those countermeasures; and Recommending countermeasures for use in Arizona to improve work zone safety and reduce accidents. A national review of work zone countermeasures was conducted, focussing on the documented effectiveness of various work zone countermeasures. To identify which countermeasures are most appropriate for use in Arizona, a panel of 21 experts was convened. The panel included representatives with a variety of perspectives on the work zone accident problem. The panel selected six principal countermeasures for implementation in Arizona: 1) Work Zone Speed Limits; 2) Police Presence; 3) Speed Limit Enforcement; 4) Public Education; 5) Sign Credibility; and 6) Temporary Pavement Markings in Work Zones
