This Wednesday, April 17th, is “Wear Orange Day”. Please show your support for National Work Zone Awareness by wearing orange. Throughout this week, you can follow @myTDOT on Facebook, X, and Instagram for information to broaden awareness of the importance of driving safely and undistracted, especially through work zones.

Last year there were almost two dozen fatalities in work zones on Tennessee roads.  Do your part to keep yourself and TDOT road workers safe – check TDOT SmartWay in advance and Know BEFORE You Go, secure your phone in a hands-free device, and Work With Us by moving over and slowing down when you see vehicles with flashing lights.
