Multiple trees are now growing in the Houston area, honoring fallen workers and raising awareness about the importance of driving safe in work zones.
In the Houston area, 24 TxDOT workers have lost their lives in service to the state since 1951.
To honor these crew members, TxDOT joined Garver, an engineering, planning and environmental services firm, and Trees for Houston, a non-profit organization dedicated to planting, protecting and promoting trees in Houston to plant 25 trees at Cottage Grove Park in early October.
