8.1 RISK ASSESSMENT
A detailed risk assessment has been completed as part of this TMP and associated TGS (Appendix G). The risk assessment was
performed by the TMD to include the identification of all foreseeable risks and implemented controls.
This risk assessment and the associated controls have been determined in accordance with the “As Low as Reasonably
Practicable” (ALARP) and Hierarchy of Controls measures as required by legislation and industry practice. This is in accordance
with as per the extract below.
36 Hierarchy of control measures
(1) This section applies if it is not reasonably practicable for a duty holder to eliminate risks to health and safety.
(2) A duty holder, in minimising risks to health and safety must implement risk control measures under this section.
(3) The duty holder must minimise risks, so far as is reasonably practicable, by doing one or more of the following—
a) substituting (wholly or partly) the hazard giving rise to the risk with something that gives rise to a lesser risk;
b) isolating the hazard from any person exposed to it;
c) implementing engineering controls.
(4) If a risk then remains, the duty holder must minimise the remaining risk, so far as is reasonably practicable, by implementing
administrative controls.
(5) If a risk then remains, the duty holder must minimise the remaining risk, so far as is reasonably practicable, by ensuring the provision and
use of suitable personal protective equipment.
Note—A combination of the controls set out in this section may be used to minimise a risk, so far as is practicable, if a single control is not
sufficient for the purpose.

8.2 CONTINGENCY PLANS
A contingency plan has been included within this TMP. In accordance with MRTS02 Clause 5.9.
Its purpose is to address the possibility of excessive unforeseen delays and events not predicted within this TMP. One of the
Supervisor’s stated responsibilities is to call the TMD should this occur. Steel plates will be onsite available for the reinstatement
of the road and footpaths and the Variable Messages Signs will be available to relay updated messages to road users. Either
under the direction of the TMD or if the TMD is not contactable.
Review the MPH05-BBN-HA-MB-01a Risk Assessment for full hazard and control information (Appendix G).
Some typical factors that may lead to the execution of the contingency plan are stated below:
a) Severe Wet Weather
b) Excessive Delays
c) Emergency Vehicle access.
d) Lighting Outages or issues
e) Incidents (Project and Non-Project)
f) Plant Failure.
g) Tow Services.
h) Vehicle collisions
8.2.1 Broken Down / Abandoned Vehicles
In the event of a vehicle being broken down or abandoned within the site the following procedure is to be carried out:
➢ Traffic control are to modify TTM as required to move road users away from the vehicle then seek TMD advice.
➢ Ensure the area has been sectioned off using appropriate delineation with enough area for the vehicle to be accessed
by a recovery vehicle (road assist/towing services) safely.
➢ Immediately notify the TMC providing information on vehicle type, registration, vehicle location in relation to works
e.g. 50m south of works on the northbound carriageway, and ownership details (if possible).
➢ Coordinating with the TMC and towing contractors to enable the removal of abandoned or broken down vehicle in the
safest and shortest possible time
