It is National Work Zone Awareness week!

Work zone safety impacts all of us.

Did you know that nationally, four out of five people killed in work zones were drivers and passengers - not highway workers?

Remember to pay attention and slow down in all work zones!

#NWZAW

What better way to kick off National Work Zone Awareness Week than by reminding all motorists to buckle up and put the phone down. Refraining from distracted driving in work zones improves both driver and roadworker safety.
