Every day, workers performing construction and repairs along our nation’s highways, roads, bridges, and tunnels are often exposed to hazards from outside and inside their work zones. One of the most common of these is being struck by passing motorists who fail to follow posted speed limits and caution signs. During the annual Work Zone Awareness Week, April 20-24, we join our roadway work zone safety Alliance partners to raise awareness about the important role the public plays in protecting the workers who make it possible to commute to their jobs, run errands and visit loved ones. Go to the official website to learn how you can participate and help make work zones safer for everyone.
