[neerGnayR]

wait a minute, You've been a local 4 operator for 30 years AND you've been decorating christmas trees for 30 years? Where you jewish before joining Local 4? Just wondering, either that or you joined the union the day your were born.

For w.e. reason we are not using jersey barriers. The place is lit up like a Christmas tree with lights. Nevermind all the signs that are up. What would jersey barriers have stopped? The backhoe and the truck were in the same lane. And as for the operators, they are great operators. The company is very picky about who they put in the machines. Now Im assuming you live or commute on the Cape. If the bridge is such a problem...take the tunnel you guys are so proud about. Have a great day.

[fmfracer5590]

its obv its the comapanys fault they should have jersey barriers instead of barrels plus i heard tht the company thats doing the work sux and so does their operators

I was working on the bridge when this all happened. In defense to the operator of the backhoe, he had all of his flashing lights, as well as spot lights on. There were no brakes involved, the driver of the truck just plowed straight into the back end of the backhoe...luckily he walked away with only minor cuts and scratches...
