The Maintenance of Traffic for Supervisors Web-based training presents information about the placement of, field maintenance required for, and inspection of traffic control devices. In addition, drafting work zone traffic control plans and flagging are discussed. This training focuses on the design of a traffic control plan, and how and why one needs to operate and implement traffic control in the work zone.

This training was prepared by the Transportation Curriculum Coordination Council (TCCC) in partnership with NHI to introduce maintenance of traffic for supervisors. This training is recommended for the TCCC levels III and IV.

We've broken this training into five modules:

1. Fundamental Principles of Temporary Traffic Control Zones

2. Temporary Traffic Control Devices

3. Traffic Control Zones

4. Transportation Management Plans

5. Flagger Operations

OUTCOMES:

Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:

• Describe how to create clear, organized traffic control plans
• Identify acceptable temporary traffic control devices
• Determine good and bad flagging techniques

TARGET AUDIENCE:

This training is designed for personnel with responsibility or authority to decide on the specific maintenance of traffic requirements to be implemented. These positions include engineers responsible for work zone traffic control development and work site traffic supervisors. The target audience could be geographically dispersed, in need of immediate training or information, or not have access to travel funds.
