Driving Safety Assurance Method in Work Zone Crossovers of Highway Reconstruction and Expansion Project

Work zone crossover is an important area in highway reconstruction and expansion projects because it profoundly impacts the traffic safety and efficiency of the construction sites. This research sets the different median opening widths in the driving simulation experiment, collects the vehicle contr...
