A Caltrans worker was killed in Martinez when struck by a truck in a closed work zone on Highway 4.
A 39-year-old Caltrans construction inspector, Mahdi Khorram, was killed Wednesday night in Martinez when he was struck by a truck on Highway 4 during a construction project.
The incident occurred around 10:35 p.m. in a closed work zone, and Khorram, who had been with Caltrans since 2023, died at a hospital.
Caltrans Director Dina El-Tawansy and Governor Gavin Newsom expressed deep condolences, with Newsom ordering state flags to fly at half-staff in honor of Khorram.
The tragedy marks the 195th Caltrans worker killed on the job since 1921 and has prompted renewed calls for improved safety measures for workers in similar conditions.
