Safe Digging Event At The State Capitol

The “811” motorcycle -- featured in episodes of American Chopper on the Discovery Channel -- returned to Jefferson City on April 3 as part of activities surrounding National Safe Digging Month. In addition, a Missouri One Call interactive excavation damage prevention trailer was on display.
The 811 Bike is a custom motorcycle built by Paul Jr. Designs to promote underground utility damage prevention.

The Missouri One Call educational display features videos; a glass floor showing underground lines and pipes corresponding to natural gas, electric, telephone cable and water meters and boxes displayed on the wall; damage prevention literature; and an interactive “dig box” to be used for school programs.
