Traffic Management Plan – 25040286

   8.5.3   Flashing Arrow Signs

No arrows are required for this project.

   8.5.4   Delineation

Delineation is provided to ensure the safety of road workers and road users whilst providing a clear pathway of
travel. Delineation devices include:

   •   traffic cones                                                              •    bollards


The clearance between delineation and the edge of the nearest traffic lane should be as shown in Table 4.1.
Measure from the traffic -side edge of the delineating device or barricades. These offsets are required
because cones or other devices can be dislodged, and the clearance is required to minimise this risk.

The spacing between delineation devices should be as detailed in Table 4.2. These are maximum
measurements and can be reduced (e.g. on curves, at night). If there is a risk that road users may take a
wrong turn or take the wrong path, the spacing may be reduced to a minimum of 1 m.

   8.6 Site Access for Work Vehicles

Construction and/or traffic management vehicles entering and exiting the traffic stream shall be mindful of the
conditions that may affect the safety of these movements.

All entry and exit movements will be in accordance with the Road Traffic Code and shall be undertaken in the
following manner:

Vehicles shall:

   •     Decelerate slowly and signal their intention by indicator to leave the traffic stream.
   •     Activate the vehicle’s rotating yellow lamp, where fitted, once a speed of 20 km/h. has been reached and
         at least 50m prior to the exit location.
     • Switch on the vehicle hazard lights once the vehicle is stationary.
     • Where risks associated with unassisted exit or entry to or from the traffic stream are high, Traffic
         Controllers should be used to assist entry and exit movements.
Vehicles fitted with rotating amber lamps shall have the vehicle’s rotating lamp activated prior to entering the
traffic stream and shall undertake the following.

     • Switch off the vehicle hazard lights.
     • Indicate intention to enter the traffic stream using direction indicators.
     • Ensure there is a suitable gap from oncoming traffic to allow for a safe entry manoeuvre; and,
     • Turn off the rotating yellow lamp(s) once a speed of 40 km/h is reached.
Entry and exit manoeuvres shall be avoided in close proximity to intersections. Work personnel shall not cross
traffic streams on foot unless absolutely necessary.

Construction or traffic management vehicles shall only be parked where indicated on the Traffic Guidance
Scheme. Vehicles shall not obstruct paths and be parked an adequate distance from intersections or
driveways to ensure clear sight lines remain for all road users.
