What their customers say

Quotes from people at AWP Safety's customers.

““A major advantage of outsourcing traffic control is that you don’t have to worry about having the equipment or skill set yourself. The traffic control provider will bring everything””

Division Manager · Traffic Company

“"Your ability to get everything taken care of on a Friday afternoon for a Monday morning start was incredible. I wanted to commend your field crew on site, Bryson and Brittany, for a really great job."”

President · GeoTek Hawaii, Inc.

““Traffic control has a variety of laws in place that differ from state to state. The safety of our crews is our primary concern. We trust AWP to control traffic carefully in and around our work zones so that not only our crews, but also AWP’s workers and the general public, are safe. They [deliver on] traffic control projects every day in every state. They will do longer term projects that are more planned but AWP also has people on call that can respond quickly to emergencies or short-notice projects."”

Distribution Contract Manager

““The AWP Safety crew does a fantastic job. I’m very pleased with their communication, attitude, and overall willingness to be here. It was a tough project, and from my standpoint they did an excellent job.””

Aaron Maldonado · Superintendent & Project Manager · APC Construction

“"Your guys were first class this weekend!! Constant communication, arrived where and when they were supposed to be there, and super friendly. Great customer service, and you should be proud. Let that whole crew know it was a pleasure working with them!!"”

“"From the initial inquiry to the completion of the project, every member of your staff demonstrated a strong commitment to excellence. The attention to detail, prompt responses to inquiries, and willingness to go above and beyond expectations truly set MOT Plans - an AWP Safety company, apart from your competitors. It is truly a pleasure to work with such a reputable company that values customer satisfaction and quality service above all else."”

Tommy Johnson · Superintendent · BG Demolition

“"I want to extend my gratitude for the workers AWP was able to supply Cardno. Your two employees, Brock and Darrin, were very professional, knowledgeable to the necessary adjustments on site, attentive, and diligent. Their thoroughness ensured, not only the safety of my crew and their own, but the motorist and pedestrian public. I'm thankful that we are all home and safe with our families."”

Josh Niemiec · SUE Tech III, Cardno

“"AWP is organized, disciplined and has professional leaders. We were impressed that they called a pre-con meeting (before starting work). We've never had one offered to us by any other traffic control company."”

Manager · Lambert's Cable Splicing Co.

“"AWP did an amazing job. They were on time, professional, and great to deal with. I will definitely be using AWP as our primary traffic control company moving forward."”

Doug · Senior Technician · HVJ Associates Inc., Engineering Firm

“"It is jobs like this, that makes it easy to explain the partnership we have to have. Without them [AWP] taking care of the work zone, the lineman cannot stay focused on the task at hand and that could lead to a very dangerous situation. With the traffic control handled the way it was, very professional and above all safe, the line crew was able to just focus on the job at hand and have a zero harm day."”

Rustin Owen · Fort Wayne District Safety Coordinator · Indiana & Michigan Power Company

“"Oncor and Primoris are very grateful for the traffic control plan and work provided to us for this particular job. You found a solution to our problem - and for that we are very grateful. I also want to thank the guys that went out there to set up the signs and equipment as they communicated really well with us on how everything was going to run. Thank you very much for what you do, and as always, thank you for always helping us out when we need it."”

Juan Segovia Jr. · General Foreman, Dallas Area · Primoris

“"The support center was able to accommodate this short notice request for us. You guys are no longer Area Wide Protection, but AMAZING WORKING PROFESSIONALS."”

Matthew Kasinecz · Distribution Tech Supervisor · Miles Service Center

“"The Savannah St. Patrick’s Day Parade requires an incredible level of planning, communication, and execution, and it is clear that the collaboration across city departments and with our external partners continues to be a major strength. We appreciate the long hours, flexibility, and professionalism demonstrated throughout the planning process and during the event itself. Your commitment helped ensure a safe, organized, and enjoyable experience for all residents and visitors."”

City of Savannah Special Events Team · Savannah Special Events, Film & Tourism (SEFT)

“"I wanted to follow up after yesterday to thank you for coming out to our job site and providing the demonstration to the team. I thought it went very well—it was one of the more engaging and entertaining demonstrations I’ve attended. It was great to see your innovation and expertise in traffic control, which is often an overlooked but critical part of construction. It was also a pleasure connecting with you and your team. Everyone was extremely personable and clearly passionate about the work they do."”

Elijah Stong · Project Engineer · The Walsh Group

“"I drove through a textbook perfect flagging operation today in Franklin County, FL. AWP Safety was controlling traffic for Duke Energy. This flagging operation had clean advance warning signs, spacing met the minimum standards, all cones where APL approved, and the Stop/Slow Paddles were perfect."”

Brian Satterfield · FDOT Inspector · FDOT

““They are a top notch outfit and their biggest concern was our employees safety. They showed up timely and made sure the site was secure before allowing our employees in the road. Considering the work area is S. Saunders St and I-40 this was not an easy task. I can highly recommend AWP & will not hesitate to use them again."”

Ricardo Hernandez · Site Supervisor · City of Raleigh

“"AWP also makes the environment much safer, which is valuable to us. They are all trained and they have all the materials so it is a very safe environment."”
