The Hazards of San Antonio Construction Zones

There are many types of injuries that can occur to people who are traveling through a construction site or work zone. Pedestrians, bicyclists, and the drivers and passengers of motor vehicles all have some increased vulnerability in construction zones.

The number of deadly pedestrian accidents in construction zones has risen over time. In 2020, pedestrian work zone fatalities in the U.S. surpassed 100 for the first time. The following year, there were 130 pedestrian fatalities, and that number fell to 105 in 2022.

Not all work zone accident statistics show increases in fatalities. According to the Federal Highway Administration, bicycle and passenger vehicle work zone fatalities decreased between 2021 and 2022.

Construction zone accidents happen for many reasons, including:

  • Speeding through construction zones
  • Distracted driving
  • Confusing signage
  • Lack of protective barricades
  • No pedestrian or bicycle accommodations
Filing a Lawsuit After a San Antonio Construction Accident

If you are injured in a construction zone, calling a lawyer as soon as possible can help your legal team prepare a successful case against the construction company. Seek safety and medical attention first, but calling an attorney soon after your accident ensures that they can collect evidence and reach out to eyewitnesses while the accident is recent.
