b

Case studies where traffic delays experienced were quantified without a 40% additional cost as shown in  Appendix 2

c

Case studies where traffic delays experienced were quantified with a 40% additional cost as shown in  Appendix 2, to account for adverse environmental impacts experienced

d

The totals and averages are calculated for all 16 utility strike case studies
