Asphalt construction zones can be hazardous if not approached with caution. Whether you’re a driver or pedestrian, it’s essential to follow safety guidelines to protect yourself and others.
Safety Tips for Drivers

- Pay Attention: Be alert and avoid distractions, such as using your phone or eating.
- Follow Signs: Obey all warning signs and flaggers.
- Maintain a Safe Distance: Keep a safe following distance behind other vehicles to give yourself time to stop.
- Be Patient: Construction zones can cause delays. Be patient and avoid aggressive driving.
Safety Tips for Pedestrians
- Use Sidewalks: Whenever possible, use sidewalks or designated pedestrian walkways.
- Cross at Designated Areas: Only cross the street at designated crosswalks.
- Make Eye Contact: Before crossing, make eye contact with drivers to ensure they see you.
