Who We Are?

From Portland, With Purpose

Rooted in Portland, Maine, and servicing communities across the region, and New Hampshire, SMT Flagging LLC is proud to offer reliable 24/7 flagging services for DOT, state, local, and private projects — always with a personal, community-centered approach.

A Human Element in Every Job

At SMT, we don’t just staff positions — we match real people to real opportunities. We take the time to get to know each individual and each contractor, making sure the fit is right for both. That’s how we maintain high standards — with a personal touch.

Our Mission

At SMT Flagging LLC, our mission is twofold: to keep roads safe and communities moving — and to uplift lives through meaningful employment. We proudly serve Maine and New Hampshire, delivering trusted traffic control services while investing in people who need a second chance, a fresh start, or just someone to believe in them.

Our Mission

At SMT Flagging, our vision is to be the most trusted and dependable traffic control partner in Maine and New Hampshire—available 24/7 to meet the evolving needs of our communities. We strive to ensure safety, reliability, and professionalism on every site, at every hour. By delivering consistent, high-quality flagging services day or night, we aim to support critical infrastructure, protect workers and the public, and create opportunities for individuals seeking meaningful employment. Our commitment is rooted in service, driven by purpose, and focused on building safer roads and stronger communities—around the clock.

Community, Integrity, Opportunity

We work with municipalities, contractors, and DOT projects throughout Maine and New Hampshire. But what truly sets us apart is our human-first approach. Every flagger we hire is trained, vetted, and supported. Many are overcoming past challenges like incarceration, substance use disorder, or mental health struggles — and we stand with them, providing structure, stability, and opportunity.

Why We Do It

We believe work is more than a paycheck. It’s purpose. It’s healing. It’s belonging. That’s why we prioritize paying a living wage, even if it means reducing our profits. Our contractors get committed, capable flaggers. Our employees get a fair shot. And our communities get stronger.

Who We Are

SMT Flagging LLC is a Portland-based traffic control company built on purpose and heart. Since opening our doors, we’ve made it our goal to do more than manage traffic — we build pathways for people to reenter the workforce, to earn with dignity, and to grow in their communities.
