it's often semi-retired police officers doing these duties (at least in the district my ex's dad, but I would be in favor of implementing laws that gave them or other part timers priority. I know often they have other structures in place.
I also think police officers deserve more pay than their base salary in general, and I'm pretty sure the union negotiations include compensation from overtime as part of its overall formula.
Also, wasn't there a globe article that showed using flaggers was costing the state more money?
