Abstract: At 4:30 p.m. on August 26, 2023, an employee was distributing traffic cones on the roadway that were loaded on a utility trailer. The employee was standing on the trailer deck, grabbing the staged cones and putting them out on the roadway as the vehicle was pulling the trailer down the roadway. The employee was setting up a lane closure utilizing a Chevrolet 2500 and a 16-foot utility trailer loaded with traffic cones.

At some point, the employee fell off the trailer and hit his head on the ground. It is unknown what caused the employee to fall off the trailer. The employee suffered a skull fracture with brain swelling and was killed.
