Night-time construction and maintenance operations often generate widespread debate. Advocates defend them as effective tools in minimizing traffic congestion and maximizine operational efficiency of work-zone operations. Opponents voice concern over greater safety hazards and costs of night work, as compared to daytime work. This report assesses the parameters involved, provides guidance in establishing standard procedures, and offers planning recommendations to be applied before and during night work to ensure safe, efficient operations. The report is intended to complement the evaluation system provided by the NYSDOT night construction policy and operational guidelines issued in August 1994 by the Construction Division to maintain and protect traffic (MP&T) during these operations.
