Recognize work zone areas
Work zones operate day and night. They can be moving or stationary. You can recognize work zone areas because they are marked with orange cones or barrels, concrete barriers, traffic control devices, mowers, or vehicles with flashers.
Flaggers, surveyors or individuals in bright yellow-green or orange vests are the road crew members. Drive as if their lives depend on you!

Worker Memorial Day
![]() |
Installation of the worker memorial. |
Every year, Worker Memorial Day is held on April 28, with a moment of silence during that day to recognize those killed or injured on the job.
A memorial was designed and is located in the Transportation Building entrance on John Ireland Boulevard in St. Paul.
The memorial is accessible on weekends and after business hours. A kiosk with touch-screen capability will provide visitors with information on the history of the memorial, a listing of those killed and recognition of memorial construction donors.
The worker memorial design is by Trent Weber, a Mn/DOT employee.
