MUTCD/CW

Series CW of the MUTCD is for warning signs in construction zones. Whereas a regulatory sign appears the same inside and outside a construction zone, a warning sign has an orange background in a construction zone instead of the usual yellow. Otherwise, most of Series CW is identical to Series W. The tables below show only the signs that are unique to Series CW.

In general, OpenStreetMap only maps long-term closures and construction sites. For routing purposes, short-term construction is more reliably and efficiently tracked in incident management systems along with real-time traffic congestion data.
