April 11th, 2022
Happy National Work Zone Awareness Week!
Remember to use caution when driving through work zones! Thousands of people are killed each year in work zones due to distracted drivers, traffic pattern changes, and poor visibility. The week, we try to bring awareness to this issue and ask everyone to drive safe and use caution in work zone areas. Because accidents still occur despite awareness, we sent four of our employees to earn their Work Zone Certifications to ensure that our employees are safer when they are in these dangerous work zones. Congratulations to Justus Proctor, Zach Wright, Matt Mills, and Mark Rickard on earning your certifications and helping everyone stay safe so that all can return home to their families at the end of the day.
Drive Safe. Work Safe. Save Lives.
