Traffic Management
Plans (TMPs)

A traffic management plan (TMP) sets out how traffic, pedestrians and workers will be kept safe around a worksite or event, and is usually needed before work on a public road can start. Our specialist division, MW Training & Planning, designs TMPs on their own or alongside Men at Work crews. Use both and it's one call, with the plan and the crew working as one team.

TMP design is handled by MW Training & Planning at mwtrainplan.co.nz, which covers planning and approvals in more detail.

What's Included

Traffic Management Plans From Men at Work

TMPs for roadworks and construction

Plans for work on local roads and state highways, matched to the site and the work.

Event TMPs

Approval support

For plans they design, MW Training & Planning submits the TMP or corridor access request to the road controlling authority for you.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a traffic management plan?

A TMP is a document showing how a worksite or event on the road will be laid out and controlled, including signs, closures, detours and staffing, so it's safe for workers and the public.

Who approves a TMP?

The road controlling authority for that road. That's usually the local council, or NZTA for state highways.

How long does TMP approval take?

It depends on the road controlling authority and the scale of the work, so plan ahead and get in touch early.

Can you also supply the crew?

Yes, if you want us to. Booking both means one call, and the plan and the crew work together. You can also get the plan on its own.

I already have a TMP. Can Men at Work work to it?

Yes. Men at Work crews work to any approved TMP, whether it's your own plan or one from your TMP provider.
