While most of us are looking forward to warmer weather, the warmer weather also means that road crews will be out improving our travel routes.
Road repair crews will be out in full force across all of Windsor and Essex County... for months to come!
We would like to remind all drivers to slow down, drive with caution, increased awareness and share the road with work crews.
- Observe the lower speed limit.
- Watch for workers and obey their directives.
- Merge when appropriate and be a courteous driver.
- Leave earlier, assuming delays, to allow for ample time for you to arrive at your destination.
- Be aware of uneven road surfaces and changes in traffic patterns
- Keep a safe distance between you and the vehicle in front of you, as sudden stops are common in construction zones.
Remember, speeding fines are doubled in construction zones when workers are present and may also result in demerit points; both which affect your insurance premiums.
Drive safe!
