1. Traffic Controller Handbook

Roadwork sites are particularly hazardous compared to normal road operation. Traffic Controllers are used when signs and devices for roadworks are considered insufficient, to provide traffic control for personal safety, public convenience and efficient job control and management.

 

Your responsibilities include:

  • Your own safety

  • The safety of the road crew

  • The safety of all motorists, pedestrians and other road users at the work site

  • Stopping and starting traffic

  • Allowing the traffic to flow smoothly

  • Dealing professionally with motorists

  • Maintaining control in difficult situations

 

This handbook provides brief guidelines for effectively carrying out your work as a Traffic Controller. It forms part of the training package for Traffic Controllers.
