But unsafe traffic control practices at the Alto on Capitol Hill condo project didn’t end after the flagger was run over by a cement truck in August 2021, WorkSafe reports show.

Just months after a flagger was fatally injured by a concrete truck at a Burnaby construction site, WorkSafeBC went on to stop work at the same site three times in one month because of unsafe traffic control practices.

“When the unloading was complete, the mixer truck was driven ahead to leave the site,” states the report. “The who was in the path of the mixer truck was run over and sustained fatal injuries.” Among the contributing factors, WorkSafe listed Square Nine’s failure to give the flaggers working that day an adequate site orientation or a review of the approved site-specific traffic control plan.

Unsafe practices But traffic control practices at the site appeared not to have improved seven months later, on March 10, 2021, when a WorkSafe inspector found a Square Nine worker, who was later determined not to have completed a board-approved traffic control training program, flagging around another cement truck at the same site without the proper personal protective equipment and with no temporary traffic control devices in place.

When she returned later the same day, however, she saw another worker controlling traffic without the required equipment and PPE or training.
