PRELIMINARY WARRANTS QUESTIONNAIRE

VSL WARRANT - 4:

Work Zones

Purpose: To post varying speed limits for construction zones in order to only slow traffic when necessary or to maintain consistent speeds to promote safety.

To begin the process of determing if deployment is warranted at your location, please answer the following questions and click the submit button at the bottom of the page.

The preliminary warrants are entirely intended to serve agencies in the operations and maintenance device deployment decision making process. The warrants can also be used to validate existing device deployments.

Step 1: Describe the candidate VSL location.
Exceeded maximum number of characters.

Step 2: Answer the following VSL questions:
1. Are the schedule of the construction activities being performed AND the design of the work zone such that the vehicles are not required to be slowed to the same speed 24 hours per day? For example, if vehicles are slowed to a speed during the day when workers are present, but when work is not occurring, the absence of workers and layout of the construction zone (lane width, geometries, structure) would allow higher speeds?	Yes No
2. Will planned construction activities and design of the work zone create varying conditions for travelers during the period of construction (e.g. periods when the safe speed will change, periods when travel lanes will change, anticipated geometry changes)?	Yes No
3. Does the construction zone already exist and there is a noticeable differential in the speed of vehicles as they progress through the work zone (where travelers would benefit from slowing earlier)?	Yes No

Step 3: Answer the following survey questions (optional):
Is the device already deployed?	Yes No
Was this form easy to fill out?	Yes No
Did you have to contact others within your organization to answer the questions?	Yes No
Were the questions detailed enough?	Yes No
What suggestions do you have to improve the questionnaire? Exceeded maximum number of characters.

Step 4: Include User Information (optional):
E-mail address	Invalid format.
Name

Phone
May we contact you?	Yes No
