Precise & Detailed Traffic Control Plans for Safe & Efficient Flow of Traffic

One of the major concern to highway users and the people involved in improving roadways is the safe and efficient flow of traffic travelling and approaching through work zones. While on one hand, the travellers demand increased mobility, on the other hand, they exhibit less tolerance for delays, increased travel time and inconvenience caused due to congestions, especially the one caused due to construction operations.

Construction operations on highways disturb traffic flow and pose safety hazards for pedestrians, workers and motorists. The challenge that most of the construction agencies face is to decide how to provide sufficient space to execute construction work whilst reducing the impact of these constructions on the travellers. Effective and efficient Traffic Control Plans (TCP) can help reduce the impact on the motorist and enhance the safety for all involved.


Traffic maintenance plans can commonly be addressed through the development of TCP. The main purpose of the traffic control plan is to reduce traffic disruption and alleviate safety hazards involved with work zones. A TCP may usually involve drafting a traffic management plan, conduct the permit application process, obtain the permit and co-ordinate the traffic controllers, traffic planning and signage for your job.

A vital principle in TCP development is to recognise early on the spatial and temporal requirements for a project. It can directly influence the ability of the contractor to perform construction efficiently. The recent research suggests that a common issue with the TCPs development is that the design basis for the TCP is usually determined without adequate and early input of traffic and construction expertise during project planning.
