Safety Week 2016, celebrated May 2-6, featured a safety rodeo at the 35 Express project in Dallas and other events at the Tappan Zee Bridge project site in Tarrytown, N.Y., and the Crenshaw/LAX transit project in Los Angeles.
Speaking at the Tarrytown event, Terry Towle, president of Tappan Zee Constructors, said, “Raising awareness improves safety performance. Being aware makes it harder to do the wrong thing. If our craft workers are asked to do anything unsafe, they are allowed to stop the work.”
