Title: QuickZone
Abstract: Project planners typically don't consider the soft cost of traveler delay when making key decisions about project staging and duration. The 1998 FHWA report, Meeting the Customer's Needs for Mobility and Safety During Construction and Maintenance Operations, highlighted this issue and recommended developing an easy-to-master analytical tool to quickly and flexibly estimate and quantify work zone delays in all four phases of the project development process (policy, planning, design, and operations). The result was a traffic delay estimation tool called QuickZone, which is designed for State and local traffic construction, operations, and construction planning contractors. QuickZone is a traffic impact analysis tool that can be used to estimate work zone delays.
