Please drive with care in work zones

Drivers traveling too fast and not paying attention are the main causes of work zone crashes. Follow these safe driving tips:

  • Obey posted speed limits. The fine for speeding in a work zone is $300.
  • Drive undistracted. Cell phones, mobile devices, adjusting the radio – even eating – should be avoided in work zones.
  • Be patient. Expect delays, especially during peak travel times.
  • Expect work zones to constantly change. Day to day you could experience lane shifts, closures or moving workers and vehicles.
  • Don’t make unnecessary lane changes.
  • Do the zipper merge.
