Traffic Management

This course promotes safe working practices, standards and operating procedures at roadwork sites. 

This is the NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) Level 1 Basic Traffic Controller (TC), which covers the standards and operating procedures required by the Code of Practice for Temporary Traffic Management (COP/TTM).

All state highways are classified as a particular TTM level dependent on the traffic volumes. Four levels of TTM are described within the code and, in increasing order of complexity, these are:

• Level LV - Low Volume Roads (AADT less than 500 vpd)
• Level 1 - Low to Moderate Volume Roads (AADT 500 to 10,000 vpd)
• Level 2 - High Volume Roads (AADT greater than 10,000 vpd)
• Level 3 - High Volume, High Speed Multi-lane Roads, Expressways and Motorways (AADT greater than 10,000 vpd and speed greater than 75 km/h)

Appropriately trained and qualified staff must be available to carry out temporary traffic management duties in compliance with the NZTA COP/TTM and Local Roads supplement on all worksites.

This course is the pre-requisite for entry requirement for people wanting further training to Level 1 Site Traffic Management Supervisor (STMS) standard of the Code of Practice for Temporary Traffic Management.

This course includes theory based training.
