112 Following the tasks prescribed under this project, a comprehensive effort to identify and develop guidelines for the use, selection, and maintenance of cable barriers was undertaken. The focus of the effort was to undertake analyses that would provide a sound basis for the guidelines.

Summary and Conclusions 113 • After review of the preliminary guidelines by the panel, presented in this draft report, a workshop was held to solicit feedback on the draft guidelines from state agencies, industry representatives, and other practitioners who would be the primary users of the guidelines. The feedback and comments from the workshop participants serve as the basis for updates to the guidelines.
