As National Work Zone Awareness Week comes to a close, we are observing a Moment of Silence to honor the memory of the roadway and public works crews who were lost in work zone incidents.

Honoring those who are no longer with us is a solemn reminder that safe actions save lives. By staying alert and avoiding distractions, we can protect the people behind the cones and ensure everyone makes it home to their families.
