3Traffic Management Design for Event Traffic Marshals#
When preparing a TGS that incorporates ETMs, TMDs should clearly differentiate and label ETM and accredited Traffic Controller positions. The TGS shall include instructions that specify the activities each ETM is expected to undertake, including the signs that the ETM is expected to install.
The 'Traffic Controller Ahead / PREPARE TO STOP' sign shall be placed as per the requirements of the QGTTM Part 3 Section 4.8 in advance of any location where ETMs are undertaking traffic control.
The use of four cones on the centreline as per the QGTTM Part 3 Section 4.8 is intended for reversible flow arrangements only and therefore not applicable to ETMs.
This figure is indicative and provided as an example only. TGS design shall be undertaken in accordance with the requirements of the QGTTM, Queensland MUTCD Part 3 and the ETMDG.
In all cases, the TGS must be prepared by a TMD who is a competent person as per the requirements of the QGTTM.
