Stay safe in highway work zones

Four out of five victims in work zone crashes are motorists, not road crew workers.

Work zone safety is in your hands. Across Kentucky, crews in work zones risk their lives daily to maintain the infrastructure that connects us to our places of work, families and interests. No one should have to go to work worrying whether or not they will safely return home. The workers are your family, your friends and your coworkers.

This year’s awareness campaign, which launches April 3-7, aligns with National Work Zone Awareness Week and shines a spotlight on supporters of work zone safety. Glow Orange Kentucky is an initiative of the KYTC that invites organizations and citizens throughout the Commonwealth to illuminate buildings, landmarks, bridges, structures and homes with the color orange to show support during the week of April 3-7.
