This week is Work Zone Awareness week. On average, a #workzone crash occurs once every 5.4 minutes in the United States. In Ferndale, our crew and contractors are hard at work in road construction sites and need your eyes on the road.
Please, as you approach a work zone, slow down, be prepared to stop and be careful around large vehicles. Thank you!
