Investigation Summary
On May 31, 2006, Employee #1, a rubber tire compactor operator, was compacting the road bed at the west end of the new bridge, when he contacted loose embankment soil. As the rubber tire compactor started to slide over the edge of the embankment, Employee #1 turned the wheels too sharp, and the machine started to slip faster down the embankment. Employee #1 was thrown from the compactor and was struck and killed by the compactor as it continued down the 3 to 1 sloped 29-foot high embankment to the stream below.
