ODOT Work Zone Pocket Guide 1.01

This application offers a comprehensive summary of guidelines derived from the Ohio Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (OMUTCD). It outlines fundamental principles and provides detailed descriptions of standard traffic control devices applicable to work zones and traffic incident management areas. Additionally, it includes guidelines for the appropriate application of these devices alongside typical application diagrams, as well as information on proper flagging practices.

It is essential to note that while this information aims to convey the principles of proper temporary traffic control, it does not serve as an official standard. The authoritative standards for temporary traffic control can be found in Part 6 of the Ohio Manual of Traffic Control Devices (OMUTCD).

This application is intended solely as a reference tool and should not replace a thorough review of the Ohio Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (OMUTCD). In cases where discrepancies arise between this application and the OMUTCD, the latter remains the definitive legal standard.

The guide is specifically designed for state and local government road and street departments, utility companies, contractors operating under permits, and any other organizations engaged in maintenance or construction activities on public roadways.
