Our National Planning Manager
Rich Royce tied for first place in this year's WZSSF Charity Poker Night!
Each year, to close out National Work Zone Awareness Week
#NWZAW Colorado Barricade holds a
Charity Poker Tournament.
As a company that believes in the intrinsic value of safety in
every work zone,
Road Worx has helped sponsor the event for the past two years and we plan to continue supporting the cause in the future.
WZSSF stands for Work Zone Safety & Support Fund.
Captured from the CCA
website:
In an effort to better support our industry the Associate Council created a fund to support individuals and families affected by work zone fatalities and critically injured.
According to Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), about 600 people die and more than 37,000 people are injured every year in work zone crashes nationwide. Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) embarks on hundreds of construction projects across the state and that does not include the numerous maintenance activities that are conducted every day to keep our highways safe. With every construction zone comes equipment, workers and daily changes in the road and alignment you may be traveling. As a result, it is critical that everyone does their part to make the cone zones safe. Lower speed limits, flaggers and police enforcement are all used to help keep work zones safe, but motorists still need to drive responsibly to keep not only our workers safe, but yourself as well.
Road Worx would like to acknowledge all of the winners, unfortunately we do not have the names or companies represented of the other two individuals.
CONGRATULATIONS!!
