What is a Traffic Management Plan and Why Do I Need One?

What Is Traffic Management?

Traffic management is a system of controlling traffic movement through or past a worksite to achieve a maximum of safety and a minimum of inconvenience for both the road worker and the road user. A traffic management system is required when working on public roads, road verges, road medians, footpaths, bicycle paths, construction sites and where any other work-related activities require temporary controlling of traffic.

Numerous issues can arise if traffic management is not adhered to.

The main objectives of a traffic control plan are:

  • Improving roadway safety.
  • Managing commuter, bus, freight and tourist movement.
  • Improving all transport options, including cycling, walking and travel management.
  • Congestion in central city locations.
  • Congestion caused by unexpected accidents and unique events.
  • Combination of land usage developments into the road network.
  • Councils have a crucial role in managing traffic movement and working with Roads and Maritime Services in handling these issues on its own Regional and Local roads.
