By: Rhonda Oaks

Date:

LUFKIN – The TxDOT Lufkin District has recorded a crash that occurred in an Angelina County work zone late Tuesday afternoon.

The crash is currently under investigation by the Texas Department of Public Safety, but the unfortunate crash resulted in the loss of life(s).

The work zone was set with rumble strips, barricades, and a flagger directing traffic just north of the Jasper County line on US 69. There was a work crew present at the time of the crash. The TxDOT family would like to express its heartfelt sympathy to the family of those involved and to those who witnessed the crash.

Motorists are urged to reduce speed and obey all traffic control in and near a TxDOT work zone. Stay alert for moving equipment and workers near the lanes of travel as you approach a work zone. Always be prepared to stop.
