I’ve made traffic control plans for road construction and depending on the locality police are rarely involved with traffic control. This area clearly looks like the state’s DOT right-of-way, and these might be contractors in which case they are required to submit traffic control plans to the DOT and DOT confirm if it for safety. However, contractors have to actually execute the plans in the field. This could be a case of bad plans or a site supervisor who didn’t check the original traffic control plans matched with what was on the ground.
They’re idiots. They hardly ever have flaggers or traffic control when they actually should. All those reports do is cya nobody is actually checking to see if they’re doing it. Then an accident happens like this and they blame everything on the truck driver when they didn’t do their jobs correctly. It should come back on the engineer who approved those workers and didn’t check what they were actually doing.
