| description abstract | This study evaluated the effects of portable plastic rumble strips (PPRSs) on speed reduction and drivers’ behaviors in advance of flagger-controlled work zones. Travel speed data were collected at three two-lane highways with temporary (less than a day) maintenance activities, at which standard flagger traffic control was set up with or without the implementation of PPRSs. Drivers’ reactions to the PPRSs, such as changing lanes and braking in the vicinity of the PPRSs, were also investigated when the PPRSs were in place. The results showed that drivers became more cautious because of the PPRSs. The PPRSs reduced car mean speeds by 9.7 to | |
