Please keep the following tips in mind when driving through work zones:
-
Slow down and always follow posted work zone speed limits. Speeding is one of the major causes of work zone crashes.
-
Pay attention. Workers and heavy equipment may only be a few feet from passing vehicles.
-
Be patient. Delays from highway construction can be frustrating, but it only takes a few extra minutes to slow down for a work zone.
-
Plan ahead. Leave a few minutes early when traveling through a work zone in order to reach your destination on time.
