🚧 “IT'S ONLY ONE CAR.”

That's what one driver might think.

But that one vehicle entering a closed construction zone can mean:
⚠️ A worker must stop what they're doing.
⚠️ Equipment may have to be moved.
⚠️ A work area may have to be made safe again.
⚠️ A driver may encounter an unexpected hazard.
⚠️ Completed work could be damaged.
⚠️ The project could be delayed.

And the next driver may think, “If they went through, so can I.”

Before long, a road closure isn't functioning as a road closure at all.

Please don't be the driver who enters.

🚧 Respect the signs. Follow the detour. Give road crews room to work.
