At MSG, our first passion is safety. For our Michigan offices, a close second is Tigers' baseball. Our Canton, Michigan office marked National Work Zone Awareness Week with a cook out. Employees sported either #orange4safety or Detroit Tigers' gear. #nwzaw #workzonesafety #orange4safety #detroit #tigers #mlb #michigan #baseball #summer

Whether close to home or far away, our team members are thinking of safety during National Work Zone Awareness Week. Aric Bennett is sporting his orange shirt during the BST Global AI Summit in Clearwater, Florida. The conference offered practical advice for applying AI in an AEC setting. #nwzaw #workzonesafety #orange4safety #AISummit #BSTGlobal #AEC #AI #BigData

MSG's teams celebrated Go Orange for Safety day across our offices. Our Monroe, Michigan group had a sundae bar with orange sherbet, orange floats and push pops. Steve Bouws, Bradford Shelle, Aaron Hacker, PE, CFM, Mark Mathe, Robert Casad, Connor Hammon, Katherine Wever, Susan Tebbe and Sidny Yatzek all gathered to recognize National Work Zone Awareness Week. #nwzaw #orange4safety #workzonesafety

The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) reminds us that distracted driving is a factor in 25 to 30 percent of all traffic crashes. Drivers make 200+ decisions during every mile traveled. When you’re driving, safe driving is your primary responsibility. #workzonesafety #NWZAW #safety #roadway #construction

Plan to join MSG at the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA) Transportation/Aviation Conference in Cincinnati, Ohio. Lloyd MacAdam, Jason Watson, PE, Kirk Slusher and Steve B. will be there April 17th-19th. The educational tracks will focus on cities, mobility, and innovation in and around transportation, and the ways the design-build delivery method impacts how we work together. The Ohio Department of Transportation will have a session on Cleveland's Opportunity Corridor. Michigan Department of Transportation will also lead a session around risk management. Our team is looking forward to networking with our colleagues, and sharing what it is that makes MSG such a great place to work (it's our 4C's - Communication, Collaboration, Cooperation and Commitment). We're looking to add to our staff and have positions open for a bridge inspection team leader, roadway engineer, senior bridge engineer, senior transportation engineer, and transportation engineer - located across our offices (Toledo, OH, Charleston, WV, Monroe, MI and Detroit, MI). Visit our careers page to learn more https://lnkd.in/embJyfH - or reach out to one of our engineering team members, or our recruiters (Johnathan Pritt or Hannah Sancraint). If you're interested in making a career move, keep in mind that MSG is part of a larger family of companies under the Trilon Group. This means we have a combined network of similarly-minded consulting engineers from which we draw knowledge and expertise. Our larger support system is a springboard for growth, both for MSG holistically and for our individual employees. #dbiatranspo #dbtranspo #cinci #transportation #engineering #roadways #dbia #designbuild #hiring #jobs #poweredbytrilon #dukeenergyconventioncenter

As we kick off National Work Zone Awareness Week (NWZAW), we recognize all our team members for their ongoing commitment to safety. This week is a reminder for everyone to slow down in work zones. In 2022, 891 people died in work zones, according to the NHTSA FARS data. Also in 2022, 94 highway worker occupational fatalities occurred in road construction sites, based on BLS data. This data and additional statistics are available at WorkZoneSafety.org. The vast majority of people killed in work zone crashes are motorists and their passengers. In 2022, 742 drivers and their passengers died in work zones (based on NHTSA FARS data), making it all the more important for drivers to slow down and stay focused while approaching and passing through a roadway work zone. #workzonesafety #NWZAW #safety #roadway #construction
