Georgia DOT and We Are Teachers Launch Free K-12 Car and Road Safety Program
This pioneering initiative program aims to educate Georgia’s youth about the importance of road safety, whether they are passengers in a car, riding a bike, or walking. Visit GARoadSafety.com.

National Work Zone Awareness Week is underway!
A work zone crash involving a highway worker can affect so many people. That highway worker has family & friends & numerous co-workers, and all their lives can be 4ever impacted. Think about all these people & make safety a priority.

#FunFactFriday : Crews on the I-85 Widening, Phase III project are working together to create additional lanes for commercial and passenger vehicles to improve safety and travel times on I-85 in Jackson and Banks counties. Take a look! 📸
