Description
The principal contractor is responsible for developing and implementing a traffic management plan for the site. As part of this, all workers who work around traffic should be trained in the site specific traffic management and identified risks.
All employers are obligated to organise a construction site so that vehicles and pedestrians can move around the site safely from a legal point of view in compliance with the Traffic Management Act 2004.
