TRAFFIC CONTROL ~ ACp Saftey Meeting

TRAFFIC CONTROL
Almost every job at one time or another needs traffic control. This often involves the use of a flagman and signs. In short duration situations flagmen are preferable to signs since they can react to any changes in site situations. Signs are however, a suitable solution to an extended traffic control problem.
It should be remembered that the intent of traffic control procedures is to prevent a tie-up in the operation of the construction project and to allow the general public to move as efficiently as possible around the construction site. It is important that all flagmen remember that they represent the company and will come into contact with many people while flagging. Therefore be courteous at all times.

Guide for Discussion
Is the flagman trained and certified?
Set-Up
Pre-plan the entire traffic control operation.
Have the flagman knowledgeable of all construction operations to occur. Clearly mark all changes or detours.
Enforce all changes and detours.

Flagging Operations
Be sure the traffic can see you. Wear an Orange safety vest. Use a flag.
Wear suitable shoes.

Be dressed neatly (to reflect a good public image) Wear a hard hat
Never turn your back on the traffic
Always be courteous but firm.

Additional Discussion Notes:
IDENTIFY CERTIFIED AND TRAINED COMPANY FLAGGERS
​

Remember: The flagman has a responsibility to protect the general public as well as those at work on the construction site. Pay attention to what is going on around you.

Vehicle Operations ~ ACP Saftey Meeting

Most construction sites never have all the site space that they need to move vehicles in and around. This is especially true with new subdivisions. Therefore it is important that all the space we have is conserved and used to its maximum. We can reasonably expect congested traffic and an increased likelihood of a vehicle related accident.

Guide for Discussion
  • Always keep the vehicles and equipment in good running conditions. This includes brakes, lights, turn signals, and back-up alarms if so equipped.
  • Any loads extending past the vehicle body must be tagged.
  • No employee should be allowed to ride the load or exterior of any vehicle not designed to
    transport personnel.
  • Always give the right-of-way. Don’t worry about who should go first, rather who is the safest.
  • Avoid backing in vehicles; when you have to, have front and rear ground guides.
  • Report any unsafe road conditions to your fellow employees and supervisor(s).
 
  • Additional Discussion Notes:
    • If the worksite is going to be very busy, what is the policy on use of a spotter (ground guide) to direct delivery vehicles?
    • What is the company policy on parking individually owned cars and trucks around the workplace?
      Remember: Unsafe acts when compounded by the force of large vehicles can result in severe injuries and expensive repair or damaged material bills.
      Attendee’s:
      NOTE: Always promote a discussion on any of the topics covered in the Tool Box Talks. Should any question arise that you cannot answer, don’t hesitate to contact your Employer.
  • Note: If workers can expect to be around heavy equipment, see Heavy Equipment or Heavy Equipment Hazards for more information.
