Construction Work Zones

Construction work zones can be hazardous not just for those who drive through them, but also for those who build and repair our roadways, bridges and highways.

Construction Work Zone Negligence Takes Many Forms

Keeping a work zone safe is the responsibility of those managing the site. Construction work zone negligence leading to accidents might include:

  • Failing to remedy or warn of dangerous shoulder or pavement edge drop-offs that can cause loss of vehicle control
  • Debris littering the roadway making it hard to navigate through the work zone
  • Barrels or other barriers that have been moved back so they no longer warn drivers of areas to avoid
  • Failing to install or repair barriers separating lanes of traffic from dangerous construction areas
  • Not providing adequate warning signs to warn drivers of lane changes or other required information about the driving area
  • Failing to install barricades to prevent drivers from driving off the road and into a construction area

Safety of Workers in Construction Work Zones

Construction Work zone safetyKeeping a work zone safe for motorists is just one responsibility of those managing the site; keeping those doing the work safe is another.

Construction zone workers are just as likely to be struck by construction or maintenance related equipment (dump trucks, bulldozers, graders) as by cars, tractor-trailers, or other vehicles.
