Temporary Traffic Management
What is Temporary Traffic Management (TTM)?
- Methods of controlling traffic (vehicular and people) movement through, around or past a worksite using permanent design principals in a temporary setting.
What is a Traffic Management Plan (TMP)?
- A document describing the design, implementation, maintenance, and removal of temporary traffic management (TTM) while the associated activity is being carried out within the road reserve or adjacent to and affecting the road reserve. A TMP details the work to be undertaken, identifies the associated risks and the reasonably practical control measures to eliminate or minimise those risks. This is done with the aim of protecting public, contractors, and the worksite for the duration of the works.
