TTM responsibilities for Road Managers and Contractors.

Level of difficulty: Intermediate

Overview

Effective risk management requires knowledge, responsibility, and action. While tasks can be outsourced, the responsibility for safety and compliance cannot. Under WHS laws, road managers and contractors must ensure that worksites remain safe and compliant with regulatory requirements. Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) is a critical element in maintaining safety for road users, workers, and pedestrians when there are temporary disruptions to normal traffic flow.

Course Benefits

By participating in this program, participants will gain a solid understanding of the practical and regulatory requirements for TTM. They will also learn how to implement cost-effective, fit-for-purpose solutions for low-impact and short-term activities, all while maintaining safety standards.

Scope

This one-day workshop will cover the latest TTM standards, the key elements of effective TTM practices, and the critical responsibilities of Road Managers, Project Managers, and Contractors in ensuring a safe, compliant worksite. The course provides both practical insights and regulatory context to enable participants to apply TTM best practices to their own projects.

Who should attend?

This course is designed for:

• Project Managers
• Engineers
• Planners
• Supervisors
• Inspectors
• WHS Officers
• Any staff involved in the planning, management, and operation of construction or maintenance projects that require TTM.

Outcomes
