PennDOT Unveils New Approach to Work Zone Safety Signs

Author/Presenter: Joe-Ott, Sandi
Abstract:

It’s dangerous work, pouring concrete on busy highways, flagging motorists, all in the name of improved traffic flow. During National Work Zone Safety Awareness Week, PennDOT officials on Monday unveiled new work zone safety signs less than a mile from a bizarre accident about a year ago that involved a tractor-trailer truck, several PennDOT vehicles and employees along I-80 westbound near the Route 15 interchange.
