4.8.2Police performing planned traffic control duties#
Where Police perform traffic control duties in a planned arrangement as part of a static worksite, the POLICE CONTROL AHEAD panel must replace the Traffic Controller (symbolic) panel or portable traffic control device panel in the multi-message signs required by Section 4.8 (see Figure 4.8.2(a)).
Both multi-message sign arrangements in Figure 4.8.2(a) are permitted in Queensland by the Queensland MUTCD Part 3; however, these are not in strict accordance with the requirements for multi-message signs in AS 1742.3 Clause 4.2.2(d).
or
Where Police perform traffic control duties in a planned arrangement as part of a static worksite at traffic signals which are not in operation, the POLICE CONTROL AHEAD panel must be used with the Signals Not Operating (symbolic) panel in the top two 600 x 600 panels, with the POLICE CONTROL AHEAD panel positioned closest to traffic, and the 1200 x 300 version of the PREPARE TO STOP panel (see Figure 4.8.2(b)).
