If you see roadside crews, please slow down and move over when possible.

Our utility trucks are equipped with flashing lights and reflective materials. Work zones are marked on the road with orange cones and our lineworkers wear reflective clothing when working near roadways, but even with these measures in place, work zones are dangerous. Below are some tips to keep yourself and others safe in work zones.

  • Pay attention and limit distractions
  • Follow posted signs
  • Slow down
  • Allow plenty of room
  • Remain calm
