         The first inspection must take place as soon as the equipment has been installed.
         Monitoring the effectiveness of the TTM signs and devices and the operation of the TTM system should be continuous.
         Back-up TTM equipment must be available, to minimise the potential for disruption of worksite operations.

         Furthermore, All inspections shall be undertaken using a dash mounted camera and performed in accordance with TMR
         Technical Note 109 Video Record Keeping of Traffic Management at Roadworks (July 2014) and MUTCD Part 3
         Appendix A.

    b) 2.6.3 Maintenance of devices
       Ineffective signs and devices shall be replaced by similar items in good condition, if they cannot be made effective by
       cleaning or repairing.

         Signs and devices which are damaged or otherwise no longer in good condition should be either refurbished to new
         condition or replaced.

         Non-repairable signs should be destroyed so that they are not inadvertently reused.

         Water in water-filled safety barrier elements shall be maintained at the required level.

The Traffic Management for Construction or Maintenance work Code of Practice 2008 (section 7) states, the following:
    a) 7.4 Before work starts
         The following routine should be undertaken before work starts each day:
         •    inspect all traffic signs and devices and make a note of signs out of place or damaged during the night, for
              subsequent rectification
         •    inspect all water-ballasted safety barrier or containment fence modules and make a note of any out of position
              modules, low water levels and damaged modules, for subsequent rectification
         •    check for safety and effectiveness by an inspection drive through job after adjustments have been made to the
              traffic management provisions for the day, and make a record of the signs erected and their locations.

    b) 7.5 During work hours
       The following routine should be followed while work is in progress:
       •    periodically drive through the worksite to check that all signs, markings and delineation devices, as seen by other
            road users, are satisfactory and in their correct position
       •    attend to any minor problems, as they occur
       •    move personnel clear of the work area during work breaks (e.g. tea breaks); park plant clear of traffic lanes, and
            remove from view or cover inappropriate signs such as Traffic Controller Ahead/PREPARE TO STOP or Workers
            (symbolic), if workers leave the site or cannot be seen
