Road Systems Inc. (RSI) has been honored with the Truck Trailer Manufacturers Assn.’s (TTMA) 2010 Plant Safety Award. It is the second time RSI has received the award, previously winning in 2004.

“Being recognized by TTMA for exemplary safety performance is a testament to the operational excellence and consistency our people deliver every day,” said Lynn Reinbolt, president, RSI. “We attribute the superior safety performance to the behavioral-based education being embraced by our employees. It's everyone’s responsibility to be safe - our employees are not just participants, but drivers of our safety program.”
