The safety of work zone operations that require continuous movement for long periods of time such as pothole patching, weed spraying, and trash pick-up may be enhanced through the use of lead-follower autonomous truck mounted attenuator (ATMA) systems. TRB hosted a webinar on Tuesday, June 14, 2022 from 1:30 - 3:00 PM Eastern that examined development, deployment, and research of the lead-follower ATMA technology, and discussed how departments of transportation might use this technology to maintain transportation infrastructure and to reduce worker injuries and fatalities.
This webinar was sponsored by the TRB Standing Technical Committees on Maintenance and Operations Management, and on Vehicle-Highway Automation.
The slides and recording are available.
