(Simon Rizzardo/Emcon) RCMP and a highway maintenance company are asking Alberta motorists to slow down when when driving through work zones after two workers were run down this week. "I just want drivers to notice that we're on the highway," said Frank Rizzardo, CEO of the maintenance firm Emcon. "They're out there trying to make the roads safer for the travelers and they can't do that when they put their own security at risk."
