Plain-English Summary
This bill would strengthen safety rules for highway work zones and roadside crashes by updating federal transportation laws and the infrastructure law passed in 2021. It would likely require better protections for road workers, clearer warning systems for drivers approaching construction areas, and stricter penalties for speeding or reckless driving in these dangerous zones. The changes would affect highway construction companies, state transportation departments, and drivers who use roads with active work zones.
