The National Work Zone Awareness Week (NWZAW) is held each spring to bring national attention to motorist and worker safety in work zones.
This year’s theme, “Respect the zone so we all get home” emphasizes the importance of motorist respect for work zones to ensure everyone makes it home safely.
To kick off the 2025 construction season, MITA, along with partners from the Michigan State Police, MDOT, ATSSA, and MIOSHA, are hosting a National Work Zone Awareness Week news conference and public event to promote safety and to honor the workers, motorists, and families of those killed in work zones.
Please save the date and join us to promote safety in our work zones!
This year’s NWZAW event will take place at 11:00 AM on Monday, April 28th, 2025, at the DOW Diamond Field in Midland, MI. (825 E Main St., Midland, MI 48640). Parking Map
