An eye in the sky helping our crews watch their backs in freeway work zones. Huge thanks to @wistatepatrol & @WisconsinDOT for their partnership in Eau Claire County this spring!

Mike Hahn has made a name for himself in construction, especially since he never intended to get into it in the first place. Check out our latest Road Trippin' pod "Never Say Never," available HERE or wherever you get your podcasts (just search WTBA!) podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

We're excited to add a couple of big names to our membership ranks. Welcome @rwbaird and @thebiggreenw! Their unanimous approval at our Board meeting this week pushed us to 17 new members since the start of FY2026.

State Patrol pulled over 21 drivers doing an average of 19 MPH over the posted speed limit in the I-94 work zone near Eau Claire late last week. Some were going 20-24 MPH over. Thanks to WSP for your partnership in helping keep our crews safe!

Lawmakers who sign up to meet with WTBA members don't just get talking points, they get experiences that will stick with them. Like our I-94 bridge tour w/ Rep. Zimmerman last week, walking a work zone nestled between freeway traffic on all sides.

“When you see work that happens in a committee room hundreds of miles away & now you’re seeing the real work and result of that, it’s incredibly gratifying. A few things you don’t ever compromise on: public safety & our roadways.” -Rep. Zimmerman after our I-94 bridge tour Monday

Temps in the upper-60s, full sunshine, and a light breeze? Yep, we had the perfect weather conditions for an amazing Spring Sporting Clays Tournament late last week. Thanks to our 150 members who showed up!

"You hold the power to prevent these crashes." Safe actions truly save lives. Thanks to all of our members and our partners at @WisconsinDOT, @ATSSAHQ, @IUOELocal139, & @LightTheHoan for helping spread the word during the 2026 Work Zone Awareness Week.

We're extending our deep sympathies to the worker's family and coworkers, who are WTBA members. Even more devastating given we just traveled the state last week, pleading with people to slow down and pay attention in work zones. Please, show our crews the respect they deserve.

Going from prelim designs only 30% developed to finishing several new interstate bridges, ramps, and improving pavement in less than a year? It's possible with Design-Build! Awesome seeing Hoffman Construction's Cranberry Interchange project this week. Thanks for the tour!

A free teddy bear may not make the roads instantly safer. But Sky Z. Capriolo is playing the long game -- committed to safer streets (and work zones!) for everyone. Listen to the latest 'Road Trippin' podcast "Staying in Her Lane" >> podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Seven minutes of silence on a work site can seem like an eternity. It was a small price to pay for Northeast Asphalt crews this morning as they honored the 7 lives lost in Wisconsin work zone crashes. Powerful moment near West Bend. Thanks for having us there.

Orange looks GOOD on you no matter what you're up to: maintaining a roller in Medford, touring John Nolen Dr. bridge project with @WisconsinDOT secretary and @MayorOfMadison, or joining @620wtmj for a segment on work zone safety (thanks @JuliaFello & @tellyhughes) #GoOrangeDay

Great to be a part of this discussion. WTBA is proud to have helped make Wisconsin the second state in the US to adopt Work Zone Safe. Excited for @WisconsinDOT to now help it grow even further!
On this episode of the Safety Zone Podcast, our guests discuss Safe Teen Driving in Work Zone programs and how you can implement them in your state. 🎥 Watch now: youtube.com/watch?v=IaoMXRRE… #NWZAW #WorkZoneSafety

A bright and bold reminder: slow down, save lives. The Hoan Bridge in Milwaukee glowed construction barrel-orange last night in honor of National Work Zone Awareness Week. Special thanks to @LightTheHoan for helping us make this happen!

TODAY: @WisDOTsoutheast, @WTBAssociation members, and @LightTheHoan came together to put a spotlight on work zone safety. And tonight, that light will shine orange across the Hoan Bridge reminding everyone to slow down and pay attention. Every driver makes a difference🟧🌉👷‍♀️

What do you see when you drive thru a work zone? Cones, barrels & delays? Or the PEOPLE working there? “Don’t just see a vest. See a person. See a parent, a child, a spouse, a friend. Please show the respect they deserve." Great #WorkZoneAwareness kickoff event today!

Bunts, a squeeze, a sac fly. Finesse, teamwork and selflessness. Yep, the @Brewers won yesterday the same way our members go about THEIR work, too. Great day at the ballpark for our annual WTBA outing! #ThisisOURCrew

The John Nolen Dr. bridge project is tricky, especially keeping traffic flowing along the most important way into downtown Madison. Good news: WTBA members ZTI (@Walbecgroup) and Edgerton Contractors are keeping things on-schedule. Thanks, @WisconsinDOT for the update this week!

It sounds simple, but is no less true: coordination and communication are the keys to successful transportation projects. That's what makes our quarterly Consultant Council meetings super important. Thanks to chairman Jeff Bauer and @JacobsConnects for hosting us in MKE!
