What is the minimum distance for a Flagger station to be positioned from the work zone?

The minimum distance for a Flagger station to be positioned from the work zone is 50 feet. This distance is crucial for ensuring that flaggers are in a safe position where they can effectively manage traffic while minimizing their exposure to potential hazards that arise from the work zone. The 50-foot distance allows flaggers to get a clear view of both the approaching vehicles and the operations within the work zone, facilitating better communication and safety for both workers and drivers. Additionally, being situated at this distance helps maintain adequate reaction time for vehicles approaching the work zone, contributing to overall safety on the road.
