National Work Zone Awareness Week 2007 (April 2-6, 2007)
The National Work Zone Awareness Week (NWZAW) was observed, April 2-6, 2007. The Eighth Annual National Media Event was observed on April 3, near the Woodrow Wilson Bridge hosted by the Virginia State Department of Transportation.
The theme for this year's NWZAW is “Signs of Change”. Today's work zone points to tomorrow's improved roadways for smoother rides, better traffic flow and safer travel in your future, so always be alert of the signs indicating change. Let’s keep moving into a better future, and be safe.
