What fun to watch our employees' families playing and learning neighborhood safety at Portsmouth Safety Town over the weekend. Our tunnel replica in the pint-size town where children learn essential pedestrian and bicycle safety skills through interactive activities was a hit!

It’s National Trailer Safety Week! 🛻🛥️ Handling a heavy load changes everything about how your vehicle drives. Don't hit the road without checking these 4 rules: 💪 Ensure your vehicle can safely handle the trailer's max weight ⚖️ Load the front half heavier to prevent dangerous trailer sway 🪢 Use heavy-duty straps so cargo can't shift 🔗 Cross safety chains in case of hitch failure

Hurricane season officially opened June 1, so our team continuously monitors tropical activity ahead of any expected impacts to our region and facilities. Recent, successful tests of our tide gates ensured we're prepared to protect our tunnels from flooding and keep drivers safe.
