Yesterday's Fallen Worker Memorial Dedication was a powerful reminder of why this monument exists. Behind every work zone is someone's family member, friend, and coworker who deserves to make it home safe. Lets all remember to stay alert when we see crews working on our roads.

[ATSSA @ATSSAHQ]

Work zones are dynamic environments with changing traffic patterns. Follow flaggers’ instructions and posted signs to navigate safely and avoid endangering workers. #NationalTrafficAwarenessMonth #RoadwaySafety #WorkZoneSafety #OnTheRoad #BeSeenBeSafe #SafetyAwareness

Striking gold for the I-49 Extension project! We celebrated today in Barling, signifying the start of the first of four phases by driving spikes where the bridge will begin near the Arkansas River. Thank you to all who came out!

ARDOT Director Jared Wiley spoke at the ribbon-cutting for the newly restored Old River Bridge in Saline County - the oldest bridge in Arkansas.

It took many community stakeholders to save this piece of Arkansas history and restore it so it can be part of our future too.
