In work zones, visibility and clear signaling are essential, so orange is the standard color used for construction and maintenance areas. Devices like cones, barrels, and barricades are orange to warn drivers of upcoming workers and equipment. The white stripes or bands on these devices are typically reflective, making them easier to see at night or in low light by reflecting headlights. That combination—orange for caution and white for high visibility—is what identifies work-zone devices. Other color schemes are used for different purposes (information, direction, or general warnings), but they don’t denote a work-zone area the way orange and white do.
