How should one handle work zone traffic while driving on the airfield?

Handling work zone traffic on the airfield requires a careful and responsible approach to ensure the safety of all personnel and equipment. Exercising caution and slowing down is the appropriate response because work zones often involve construction activities, maintenance operations, or other situations that can create hazards on the roadway.

In work zones, there may be personnel, equipment, or changing traffic patterns, and reducing speed allows drivers to react promptly to unexpected obstacles or changes. Additionally, following any traffic control devices in place—such as signs, cones, or flags—is crucial, as these are specifically designed to guide drivers safely through the area and minimize the risk of accidents.

By doing so, drivers help maintain a safe environment for themselves and others who may be working in or navigating through the area.
