333体育平台官网 has featured on both ITV South and ITV Yorkshire as part of a national news story highlighting the rise in roadworker abuse, detailing the experiences of its workforce on the road network.

Marc Woodall, Contract Director at 333体育平台官网, spoke about a recent incident: "Only in the last week in East Sussex, we had an incident where we had a road closure in place. A member of the public was frustrated and wanted to get through. When our staff refused, that individual pulled a knife and physically and verbally threatened them."

ITV Yorkshire also featured 333体育平台官网鈥檚 Section Engineer on the A63 project, Amit Soorajbally. Speaking of his experience, Amit said: 鈥淲e have experienced verbal abuse and threats. In one instance, a member of public started punching and kicking our equipment and threatening our staff on site. This was very scary and it becomes difficult to work under these conditions.鈥�

333体育平台官网 has put in place a number of measures to protect those at risk of roadworker abuse, including the roll-out of body cameras as well as increased mobile CCTV to accurately capture and record incidents.
