Mary Jo Miller is the Director of Environmental at Colas Inc. – a Colas USA subsidiary – and one of our 12 women recognized as a 2024 WE Colas Women of Influence. She grew up in the construction life because her father, grandfather, and uncles all worked in construction and operated heavy equipment. Her father encouraged her to work as a laborer/flagger the summers of her college career to help pay the tuition and by her junior year she started interning within the Colas USA network! Her biggest motivation is her husband and their three beautiful daughters. In her free time she's the family baker and tends to bake the cakes for family celebrations!

Late Thursday, September 26, Hurricane Helene made landfall as a Category 4 hurricane in the Gulf Coast of Florida. As it progressed over land it weakened to a Tropical Storm, reaching the upstate of South Carolina in the early morning hours of Friday. As Helene made its way through the area where our subsidiary, Reeves Construction Company, operates, it left behind utter devastation. Many are without power and some have experienced property damage due to fallen trees and flooding. Please keep our colleagues in the Reeves region in your thoughts and prayers as they work to rebuild the area.

To all our hardworking employees: Happy Labor Day! As the heart of our operations, we thank you all for connecting our communities and continuing to improve the roads we travel throughout the U.S. #ColasUSA #LaborDay2024
