TULSA, Okla. - The Federal Highway Administration has designated the week of April 15th-19th as National Work Zone Awareness Week. The agency said the collapse of the bridge in Baltimore that killed 6 highway construction workers is a reminder that they are unsung heroes.
Construction can be found all over Tulsa, at the I-244 and Highway 169 interchange, Memorial Drive and Highway 169, and I-244 and Highway 11. Even with the large signs and orange cones, drivers still speed on by, often with only a short barrier between them and the workers.
The Federal Highway Administration said roadway construction workers can be among the most vulnerable on the road because they are on foot right next to oncoming traffic.
