What Christmas is Like in the South

Dec 22, 2021 | Shoring, Trench Boxes, TrenchJacks

It may not be building a snowman, but it is lots of building! Unlike the cold North weather freezes and snowy delays, the South experiences the advantage of year-round accommodating weather to build and grow. Coupled with the economic surge of the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill recently passed into law, you have yourself one booming region.

Trench Safety Equipment – a Must Have

Two areas in the South experiencing especially significant growth are Charolette, NC and Jacksonville, FL. The list of projects earmarked in the newly passed law includes airport and water system infrastructure, expanded broadband access, and sewage upgrades. Additionally, both North Carolina and Florida will see billions of dollars funneled into the replacement and improvement of roads and bridges over the next five years. Trench Safety Equipment will be paramount for safety and productivity.
