Protection des signaleurs routiers | Le coroner fait 18 recommandations
Lapresse actualité
AI Article Summary
Coroner Arnaud Samson has made 18 recommendations to enhance the safety of road flaggers, following the death of a flagger hit by a truck. These recommendations include replacing flaggers with technological solutions and prohibiting the dual role of road and construction site flaggers. The use of flaggers in zones where speeds exceed 50 km/h is also discouraged.
What This Means for Canadian Contractors
For Quebec builders, this suggests a potential increase in costs with the adoption of temporary signaling technologies. Contractors may need to reassess workforce plans to prevent dual flagger roles. This initiative could also impact timelines if specialized technological equipment installations are required.
