Summer brings focus on safety
MARC EXECUTIVE
WILLIAMS DIRECTOR
A s summer travel heats up, so does our roadwork season.
This time of year represents a critical time for us with
safety and I ask every employee to do their part to be
vigilant in the summer months to avoid incidents and injuries
in our work zones.
During National Work Zone Awareness Week April 21 –
25, TxDOT reminded the public to drive safely in work zones
where our vulnerable road workers are often just feet away
from fast-moving vehicles. Many of you wore orange on April
23 to support work zone safety and honor the victims who
have lost their lives in work zones, as well as their families.

Texans about the dangers of
distracted driving.
