This week we visited the sites of the new Bullard Havens Technical High School and the new Bassick High School, both being constructed in Bridgeport CT with the added worker protections of Project Labor Agreements. Once both schools are completed, Bridgeport will have over 420,000 square feet of new state-of-the-art learning space for this community. For trusted and skilled electrical workers or contractors, look no further than IBEW Local 488. #unionproud #ibewstrong International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Wiring Tomorrow
