Why might road authorities direct an early merge in one work zone and a zipper merge in another?
Correct answer: Traffic volume and speed decide which works best
Why
The handbook describes early merging for low-volume, higher-speed traffic and late or zipper merging for slower, congested traffic. Follow the signs and directions at the actual work zone because its conditions determine the appropriate merge point.
