We had our first full bridge deck pour on Tuesday in Leicester. It went off without a hitch, and that is no small feat, given all of the processes happening at the same time: pouring the concrete, running the truss screed, and finishing the concrete on the back end. Good preparation pays off!
Excellent work by the entire team!

2023 Benefits Open Enrollment |
|
The yearly period where you can enroll/make changes in your health insurance plan for the next calendar year will be coming up shortly.
We're excited to announce an early start and an extended enrollment period this year. This will give you more time to compare plans, weigh your options and discuss logistics with your family before you choose your benefits for next year.
|
|
We're implementing some new elements this year to make the enrollment process easier for you. Be sure to check next week's newsletter for more details. |
|
As most of you are aware, this is the time of year where deer and other wildlife become more active in the roadways, especially in active hunting areas.
Drive with increased awareness when traveling in signed wildlife areas. Many wildlife species travel in large groups or herds; where you see one, many more may be nearby. Watch for mother and offspring groups.
Click the link below for some things to be aware of to avoid colliding with a crossing animal.

Good Catches / Near Misses |
|
There were quite a few Good Catches last month (shout-out to Transportation with 6!) and fewer accidents were reported! Keep up the great work submitting Good Catches/Near Misses to your supervisors, and continue to look out for one another. |
|
Can you answer the question from this week's safety discussion? |
|
|
Wildlife crossing signs are usually placed in known wildlife movement areas/collision hot spots
