Every site is run by a Site Traffic Management Supervisor (STMS) and trained traffic controllers from your nearest branch.
Signs, cones, barriers and delineation are installed to the approved traffic management plan. When work finishes, they're removed and the road is reopened.
Trained controllers run stop/go and manage traffic through the site when lanes are reduced or closed.
Sites are checked through the day and adjusted as the work moves or conditions change.
Any approved TMP works with us. If you haven't got one yet, our specialist division MW Training & Planning can design it, and because they work alongside our crews, the plan and the delivery fit together.
Traffic management vehicles and equipment are based at every branch.

We confirm the traffic management plan, either yours or one designed by MW Training & Planning, and the approval needed from the road controlling authority.
Our crew sets up to the approved plan before work starts and checks the site is safe.
We monitor the site while you work, adjust as needed, and remove everything when the job is done.
It's the temporary traffic control set up around a worksite on or beside a road, including signs, cones, barriers and trained controllers, so the work can go ahead safely. Men at Work provides the crews, supervision and equipment.
In most cases, yes. Work on or beside a public road usually needs a TMP approved by the road controlling authority, normally the local council, or NZTA for state highways. We work to any approved plan, or MW Training & Planning can design one for you.
Our five branches cover Canterbury, South Canterbury, Nelson and Tasman, Marlborough, and the Wellington region.
We keep local crews at every branch, and short-notice jobs are sometimes possible depending on how busy the season is. Contact your nearest branch to discuss your timeline.
