7Protection of people, property and the environment#

The Contractor must implement temporary traffic management required for the safety of workers and road users in accordance with the requirements of QGTTM, Queensland MUTCD Part 3, relevant Technical Specifications and Technical Notes, and applicable legislation.

The Contractor must undertake all activities in connection with the application and removal of pavement markings in accordance with the applicable environmental legislation and any other environmental requirements specified in the Contract documents. Waste material, including unused materials, containers and temporary markers, must be removed from the site as soon as practicable and disposed of at an authorised disposal site.

The Contractor must implement measures to prevent damage to the property of:

  • a) the Administrator (such as such as that resulting from spillage, overspray onto roadside furniture or spreading by traffic onto adjacent pavement), and
  • b) third parties (including protecting vehicles from overspray and wet paint).

The Contractor must protect all markings until the material has dried and hardened sufficiently to resist marking damage and bead loss through premature traffic wear.

In the event of any damage occurring to the property of third parties, the Contractor must promptly rectify the damage in an environmentally safe manner or pay any compensation that it is required to be paid under law.

The Contractor must remove and/or rectify any damage or excess paint caused by spillage, overspray or spreading by the action of road users prior to hardening.
