Paper Summary

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet developed a new tool to estimate how long big highway construction projects will take. They found that the old methods were not accurate enough. The new tool uses information about the project's size and type to make better predictions. For small projects, other factors seem to affect how long they take.
