Not all but many warrant a reduced speed when no workers are present.

Altered traffic patterns (not caused by the signs) and road conditions, absolutely. Month long speed reductions and lane closures on Stoney at every overpass while a single dirt crew rotates from spot to spot modifying the grade at the top of the retaining wall under the bridge? Pretty sure they were on site intermittently for a collective two days during the month of restrictions at the Stoney/22x overpass. Nobody slowed down after the first week if they didn’t spot activity.
