Work Zone Safety Awareness: A Reminder to Slow Down and Stay Alert on the Road

This video was shot at 9:00 on Tuesday night on Interstate 40 between Ft Smith and Little Rock. A road resurfacing project on the inside lane stretch from two miles. Dozens of men and women were working hard just feet from passing traffic. This is Work Zone Safety Awareness Week in the United States. A week to think about the disturbing numbers of drivers and workers killed in work zone accidents each year. Please look at the video and remember to slow down and put that phone down the next time you pass a work site like this. Thank you on behalf of Arkansas Good Roads members who are creating jobs and driving the economy in communities across our great state.
