Safety Week 2026

Posted on by Sarah McLellan

Every year, Construction Safety Week is celebrated nationally at the beginning of May. Safety Week 2026 was a true testament to how much SPS values safety. Each day, we had the opportunity to learn more about fall protection, traffic control, confined space, job-specific hazards, and more.

A big thank you to all of our site and project teams that hosted events: the SPS – D.W. White Construction JV Haverhill-Methuen Project Team on Monday, the Marine Yard in Everett on Tuesday, the Seabrook-Hampton Project Team on Wednesday, and the Railroad Construction Company – SPS JV Southampton Yard team on Thursday.

On Friday, SPS hosted Neil Swidey Swidey, author of “Trapped Under the Sea” and editor-at-large at the Boston Globe Magazine. He discussed the 10-mile tunnel leaving Boston, the construction process, and the consequences of the decision-making process.

Thank you to everyone who participated last week and to the Safety Department for putting together an incredible week.
