The researchers began with a review of current federal and state regulations regarding work zone safety. Generally, these regulations consider driver and pedestrian issues but do not include transit stop safety and accessibility. For example, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Plans Preparation Manual mentions that transit facilities should remain operational during construction and that provisions should be made to guarantee that passengers have the ability to board and depart from transit vehicles safely, but specific guidance is limited to pedestrian safety in work zones.
