FHWA hears you and is looking for a vision that honors a vital cause!
For the first time in the Department's history, the FHWA has launched a Design Challenge for the National Memorial to Fallen Highway Workers. This memorial will stand as a national symbol of remembrance for workers who have lost their lives in highway work zones and a reminder of our ongoing mission for safer roads.
If you are a designer, architect, or creator with a compelling vision and a feasible implementation plan, we want to hear from you.

NCL and @Protectaxpayers are leading a 27-org coalition urging Congress: don't let heavier trucks on our roads.
Bigger trucks = more damage to roads and bridges, higher costs for taxpayers, and more dangerous highways.

#DYK all 50 states and DC have Move Over laws requiring drivers to slow down and, if possible, move over when they are near stationary response vehicles? During #CrashResponderSafetyWeek and all year long, FHWA wants you to know: Safety Starts with You – Slow Down and Move Over! #CRSW

At a recent House T&I Cmte hearing on roadway safety, Rep. Jerrold Nadler highlighted a CABT study showing 72k+ local bridges are at risk from 91,000-lb trucks—costing $60B+ to fix. NACo's James Willox stressed: “Bridges aren’t built for that weight.” More in @Land_Line_Mag:
Should truck weight limits be increased to 91,000 pounds? Opponents say that roads, bridges and local taxpayers would pay the price.

CABT’s national coalition partners voiced their opposition to bringing H.R. 3372, a 10-year “pilot project” that would allow a 91,000-pound semi-truck road safety experiment, to the House floor for a vote. #nobiggertrucks
