Traffic incidents are unplanned roadway events that affect or impede the normal flow of traffic; they increase the likelihood of secondary crashes and pose a threat to the safety of incident responders as well as the traveling public. Incidents affect travel reliability\, commerce\, and transportation system performance. One of the essential responsibilities of transportation and public safety agencies is to ensure the safe and quick clearance of traffic incidents.\nTraffic Incident Management (TIM) consists of a planned and coordinated multi-disciplinary process to detect\, respond to\, and clear traffic incidents so that traffic flow may be restored as safely and quickly as possible. Effective TIM reduces the duration and impacts of traffic incidents; improves the safety of motorists\, crash victims\, and emergency responders; and reduces the frequency of secondary crashes.\nSpeaker: Todd Evans\, Planner\, New Jersey Institute of Technology\nCredits: 1 Management Contact Hour\n11:00am-12:00pm\nTitle: Basic Work Zone Safety for Road Departments\nDescription: This workshop will introduce municipal and county public works and utilities participants to an overview of working safely in the roadway. As new or veteran employees enter or re-enter the public works profession\, they are frequently required to set up short-term work zones or are assigned to long-term projects. There are no allowances for errors when working next to traffic\, so it is important for personnel to have a solid understanding of work zone safety compliance with the national MUTCD standards.\nSpeaker: Gordon Meth\, PE\, Robson Forensic\nCredits: 1 Technical Contact Hour\n12:00pm-1:30pm\nLunch and networking\n\nIntended Audience:\nAnyone involved in public works and engineering services \nPre-Requisites:\nNone \nSponsor:\nThis event is sponsored by the New Jersey Chapter of the American Public Works Association (APWA) and the workshops are sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration and New Jersey Department of Transportation through the New Jersey Local Technical Assistance Program.
