Commercial Vehicle Safety in Work Zones

Roadway workers play an essential role in ensuring our roadways are safe for all users. In order to accomplish this, workers are put in an extremely vulnerable position. In 2021, 33.3% of fatal work zone crashes involved a commercial motor vehicle (CMV), part of an upward trend across the preceding ten years.

In this hour-long webinar, the following speakers will discuss ways of addressing work zone safety in relation to CMVs, covering topics including collaborative efforts, the use of speed safety cameras, and connected work zones:

• Martha Kapitanov, Transportation Specialist, Work Zone Management Team – Federal Highway Administration
• John Dunham, Transportation Construction Administrator – Connecticut Department of Transportation
• Robert Brydia, Program Manager/Senior Research Scientist – Advanced Transportation Operations Program, Transportation Operations Group, Texas A&M Transportation Institute
