Aspects of the present disclosure relate to differentiating between active and inactive construction zones. In one example, this may include identifying a construction object (810-890) associated with a construction zone. The identified construction object may be used to map the area (910) of the construction zone. Detailed map information (136) may then be used to classify the activity of the construction zone. The area of the construction zone and the classification may be added to the detailed map information. Subsequent to adding the construction zone and the classification to the detailed map information, the construction object (or another construction object) may be identified. The location of the construction object may be used to identify the construction zone and classification from the detailed map information. The classification of the classification may be used to operate a vehicle (101) having an autonomous mode.
