A Quote from the US Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration:
As our highway infrastructure ages, many transportation agencies are focusing on rebuilding and improving existing roadways. This means more roadwork is being performed on roadways that are open to traffic. At the same time, traffic continues to grow and create more congestion. The combination of more work alongside heavier traffic and greater use of night work can result in increased safety considerations for roadway workers. However, there are regulations and available resources on good practices that can help workers perform their jobs safely.
