​

Traffic Management Plans (TMPs) are essential for ensuring the safe and efficient movement of vehicles and pedestrians through and around construction zones, events, and other areas where regular traffic flow is disrupted. At TEGUY, we specialize in developing comprehensive TMPs that prioritize safety, minimize congestion, and enhance overall traffic operations.

​

Purpose of Traffic Management Plans

The primary objective of a Traffic Management Plan is to mitigate the impact of construction, maintenance activities, or events on normal traffic operations. TMPs are designed to:

• Enhance Safety: Protect workers, drivers, and pedestrians by implementing safe traffic control measures.

• Minimize Disruption: Ensure smooth traffic flow and reduce delays by strategically planning detours and lane closures.

• Compliance: Adhere to regulatory requirements and standards for traffic control in construction and event zones.

 

Components of Traffic Management Plans

1. Situation Analysis

   • Site Assessment: Evaluating the specific characteristics of the site, including traffic volumes, road geometry, and surrounding land use.

   • Impact Analysis: Identifying potential impacts on traffic flow and safety due to construction or event activities.

2. Traffic Control Measures

   • Signage and Markings: Designing and implementing appropriate signage and pavement markings to guide traffic safely through the affected area.

   • Barriers and Cones: Using physical barriers, cones, and other devices to delineate work zones and control vehicle movements.

3. Detour Planning

   • Alternative Routes: Identifying and planning alternative routes to divert traffic away from the construction or event site.

   • Communication: Informing the public and stakeholders about detour routes and changes to normal traffic patterns.

4. Pedestrian and Cyclist Safety

   • Safe Pathways: Ensuring that pedestrians and cyclists have safe and clearly marked pathways through or around the work zone.

   • Accessibility: Maintaining accessibility for all users, including those with disabilities.

5. Traffic Flow Management

   • Lane Closures: Planning and implementing lane closures in a way that minimizes traffic disruption and maintains flow.

   • Signal Adjustments: Adjusting traffic signal timings to accommodate changes in traffic patterns.

6. Monitoring and Adjustment

   • Real-Time Monitoring: Using traffic cameras, sensors, and other tools to monitor traffic conditions in real-time.

   • Adaptive Measures: Making adjustments to the TMP as necessary based on real-time data and feedback.

7. Emergency Response

   • Coordination with Authorities: Working closely with local authorities and emergency services to ensure quick response to incidents within the work zone.

   • Clear Communication Channels: Establishing clear communication channels for reporting and responding to emergencies.
