HAPPENING SOON | Is it possible to improve roadways without disrupting commutes, jamming traffic, and putting road workers at risk? 👷♀️ With specialized new data tools for #construction, agencies can now identify the right lane closures, detours, and #WorkZone management strategies to minimize service disruptions and keep people safe.   💻 Register for our Construction Webinar to see how other agencies are using ✨real-time✨ and historical traffic data for faster, safer, and smoother construction projects. https://lnkd.in/gYDjXcdr #transportation #TransportationIndustry

Today's site visit brought a critical yet often overlooked aspect of pavement engineering into sharp focus: surveying access routes for abnormal loads. 🛣️🏗️ With a Self-Propelled Modular Transporter (SPMT) carrying a hefty 300-tonne load in play, the stakes are high. But, it's the ground beneath that held our attention. Thanks to precise surveying equipment and the keen eyes of our team, we have ensured the path is clear and capable. A shoutout to the unsung hero, the Falling Weight Deflectometer, for helping us measure the road's integrity! This experience is a vivid reminder of the importance of preemptive action and teamwork. 🤝 By coming together, we tackle challenges that many might not even consider - until it's too late. Have you ever faced a similar survey challenge? How did you and your team ensure the safety and success of transporting abnormal loads?

As we examine how to reduce and reverse the increase in road fatalities we have seen over the last few years; it’s only natural that we also examine how road infrastructure is designed. Check out our latest blog in our Road Safety Roundabout series: https://lnkd.in/evD_PZVv

The Indiana Department of Transportation has allotted $50 million in Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) funds to support safety improvement projects on local road networks across the state.

HAPPENING TOMORROW: #TrafficOperations can suffer during #RoadConstruction and special events, as lane closures and detours cause delays and disrupt traffic flow. But new real-time data tools can help agencies act faster to fix traffic jams and address dangerous conditions. Join us and our Jacobs colleagues tomorrow at 2 p.m. Eastern / 11 a.m. Pacific to learn how agencies like Georgia Department of Transportation are already using real-time data to expedite #highway construction and minimize traffic delays. ➡ REGISTER HERE: https://lnkd.in/gYDjXcdr #NWZAW #transportation

The detour route is being put in place to enhance safety on this stretch of roadway, which is currently reduced to one lane in each direction for construction. https://lnkd.in/gN4ZDZVV

REMINDER: Barricades are installed in work zones for the safety of construction crews and the traveling public. These "Road Closed to Thru Traffic" signs imply that drivers cannot get from one end to the other end of the project without encountering construction activities and potentially impassable operations. For vehicles that do not have an origin or destination inside the work zone, follow the detour route. If you live within the project boundaries or are trying to reach a local business, please use the shortest access point available. Please pay attention to road closure signs and barricades and do not attempt to drive around them.
