Temporary Traffic Management Risk Assessment

A risk assessment for work on or near a road that needs temporary traffic management. It records the road, speed and traffic facts, the traffic guidance scheme source, the traffic controllers and their accreditation, the buffer and any variation, and it scores the hazards from vehicle intrusion to night work, fatigue and plant. It is the risk assessment that decides the treatment, not a traffic guidance scheme and not a SWMS.
