Study of the necessity of a speed monitoring display at the returning chicane on a freeway bypass.

In addition to the traffic calming measures implemented prior to entering roadwork zones on freeways, which are conveniently established in the standards; it is necessary to evaluate potentially dangerous areas of the layout and implement additional measures where required. Specifically, in the case of final chicanes of bypasses with reduced radii, it is recommended that a speed monitoring display be installed as a mandatory element in order to inform drivers of this challenging segment. Highway administrations around the world should maintain a SMD at the returning chicane of a bypass while roadworks last.
