What is Safe Work Zones for Road Marking?
Quick answer: Line Marking Australia sets up traffic management for every line marking job on roads and in car parks. Work zones follow AS 1742.3:2019 and the Austroads Guide to Temporary Traffic Management (AGTTM), with certified traffic controllers and plans prepared by qualified designers, so our crew and road users stay safe while the work is done.
Marking roads while traffic flows isn't something you improvise. One mistake and someone gets hurt, either our crew or a road user.
AGTTM (Austroads Guide to Temporary Traffic Management) and AS 1742.3 specify exactly how work zones must be set up. Sign placement, taper lengths, buffer zones, lane widths, speed reductions, all calculated based on the road and traffic conditions.
Our traffic controllers hold current certifications. Our traffic management plans are prepared by qualified designers. We don't take shortcuts because the consequences are too serious.
A few years back, a competitor was marking a shopping centre carpark entry without proper traffic control. A car drove through their work zone and hit a worker. Broken leg, months off work, legal action. All because they tried to save time on traffic management.
We set up proper control even when clients say 'it's only a quiet carpark'. Quiet carparks have unexpected vehicles. Roads have distracted drivers. Protection isn't optional.
Traffic management is part of our road line marking, temporary line marking and car park line marking work, and road quotes include it as standard.
