County engineer James W.
Britnell informed.Huron: county
council, in i;oderich last week
that additional :safety precau,
tions and method$ have been
and are being adopted by the
county roads . organization to
minimize the danger of another
fatal accident on the county
roads system similar to the one
that occurred on County Road
2? •on May 15 -when John Tay.
for Creighton, 65 -year-old nag.,
man,' Blyth, was fatally injured.
Mr. Britnell described .the
difficulties involved in select-
ing personnel for such a job
as flagman, but stated that act.o
ion had been taken to prevent
a recurrence by distributing
safety memoranda to all emp.
loyees and urging them to wean,
.n
Proper safety equipment at all
timee. The human factor was
important, he pointed out.
"The Huron county highways
c epartment has always attemp•
ted to nrovide such safety equip.
rnent and instructions required
to protect the employees and
is continuing this practice,"
•m1,. lBritnell stated. "We have
initiated a series of lectures
sponsored by the construction
safety association." "°
The engineer reported: "It
.would appear from information"
gathered by all investigations
(Ontario department of labour,
construction safety association,
workmen's compensatioxi board
and Ontario Provincial Police)
that the flagman did not heed
the instructions of his foreman
and instead of remaining 300
feet away from the 'site of the
actual work, he moved down
closer to the project and step.
ped backwards into , the path of
the motor grader which was
backing up at the time."
Mr. Britnell read tb council
the verdict of the coroner's.'
jury at an inquest held in the
Court House, Goderich, June 16:
"Road grader driven by Mr.
G. Miller passing over-'hisbody-
causing multiple injuries to ab.
domen. -We, the jury, attach no
blame to the , grader operator,
Mr. Gordon Miller. We, the jury
recommend that the flagman be
fully trained in this type of
work and also be required to
have 'a physical-examinationbe.
fore he is,employed."
