RISK MANAGEMENT
4.5.1 Risk management process (AGTTM - Guide to Temporary Traffic Management Part 2: Traffic Management
Planning).
Traffic management planning is a risk management process, involving identification, assessment and consideration
of means to control the risk exposure. For each site, document a full risk assessment, including identification of issues
and associated risks, analysis of the risks, identification and evaluation of all treatment options. Documentation of
these steps provides a comprehensive justification for selected risk treatments.
The application of risk management for TTM at road works is appropriate at all levels of planning and operation, RISK CONSIDERATIONS
from the minor and routine schemes through to large scale and complex road work sites SEE TRAFFIC GUIDANCE SCHEME RISK ASSESSMENT - CIV-HS-FRM-0172
SEE AGTTM GUIDE TO TEMPORARY TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PART 10.
For detailed guidance regarding risk management, including risk assessment tables refer to AGTTM Guide to
Temporary Traffic Management Part 10: Supporting Guidance.
Key steps in the risk assessment process are:
• identify the possible risks
• consider the likelihood of each risk occurring
• consider the consequences if the risk were to eventuate
• create a plan to address each risk, consisting of measurable actions, rather than simply monitoring activities.
