Flaggers Keep Motorists Safe in Work Zones
Drivers traveling along the South Hillsborough Pipeline route may frequently encounter flaggers directing traffic as construction continues in several areas.
A flagger’s job is to help motorists safely pass active construction sites, where equipment, lane shifts and changing road conditions can create unexpected hazards. Depending on the work taking place, they may direct drivers to slow down, stop or help drivers maneuver around equipment.
When approaching a flagger, drivers should remain alert and watch for signals that indicate when to stop or proceed. Disregarding these instructions puts the driver and construction crews in danger. Following a flagger’s directions helps to keep everyone safe in the work zones.
Thank you for your continued patience as we work to complete the South Hillsborough Pipeline project as safely and efficiently as possible.
