Traffic Management Planning
Developing the most efficient and effective Traffic Management solution for managing all forms of pedestrian and mobile plant movements on your site from both internal and external activities can be daunting a task.
The risk control of external traffic such as inbound and outbound vehicle movements and pedestrian traffic without affecting the primary goal of each activity relies on a thorough understanding of an operational environment. Likewise a Traffic Management Plan for the interaction between internal traffic such as forklifts, pallet trucks, cleaning equipment and pedestrians is best developed by experienced logistics and health & safety practitioners.
We look for a balance between maintaining efficiencies in procedures and workflow and the development of a preferred Traffic Management solution. The solution is normally designed around the typical rules and regulations governing traffic conditions in the community.
Our assessment focuses on:
- Identification of conflict points where pedestrians and mobile plant interact
- Traffic volume flow, speed limits and timing to areas
- Traffic work flow precedents and dependencies
- Type of materials handling equipment, products, vehicles
- How administrative controls can mitigate risk
- Will Forklift technology improve safety?
- Pedestrian or materials handling equipment exclusion zones
- Review of safety induction program for employees and site visitors
The Traffic Management report will detail the rules and procedures underpinning the plan and a drawing displaying the visual application with all administrative controls such as bollards, line marking, pedestrian crossings etc identified.
The plan will comply to Health & Safety legislation and applicable guidance notes.
Our ambition is to identify your existing and potential risks to the health and safety of all occupants performing their duties and develop suitable procedures and processes which will protect your people and assets. |
