A construction superintendent was killed while working overnight on a highway widening project in North Carolina after an allegedly drunk and unlicensed driver crashed an SUV into the work zone, the N.C. State Highway Patrol said May 4.
The superintendent, identified as C.J. Bryant, 33, was a six-year employee for S.T. Wooten in Wilson, N.C., a private company contracted by the North Carolina Dept. of Transportation (NCDOT) to widen 13 miles of Interstate-40, a $360-million project.
