When it comes to traffic management solutions, ISAV Design NZ Ltd is the temporary traffic management (TTM) company to go to, providing a wide range of TTM services for ensuring the safety of workers and road users within the vicinity of a work zone.
While a lot of focus is put into the safety of road users and workers, the role of TTM for emergency services is often overlooked. However, this should not be the case – in this blog, we will delve deeper into the importance of traffic management for emergency services and how TTM solutions can benefit them.
Let’s dive right in!
TTM is crucial for optimising traffic flow on roads where traffic might be disrupted due to a work zone. By utilising TTM solutions such as traffic control devices (barriers, cones, etc.), you are effectively controlling the flow of traffic and preventing accidents and confusion between drivers.
Emergency services can range from police to ambulances, and these vehicles usually have priority on roads when their sirens and flashing lights are on. This means that drivers should ideally pull over and allow them to pass. However, in the case of construction zones that are disrupting traffic flow, it can be difficult for emergency services to manoeuvre their way around.
This is where TTM solutions come in!
With appropriate TTM measures, emergency services are able to move around work zones with ease, allowing them to get to their destination quickly and safely. By optimising your traffic management to ensure that emergency services are also able to use the road without hassle, you are helping them reach their destination in no time (which could potentially be life-saving!).
As you can see, adequate TTM is critical for supporting emergency services to navigate their way to an accident, reducing response time and allowing them to provide timely medical, police, or fire assistance.
