Temporary traffic management
Temporary traffic management is the process of managing the flow of vehicular and pedestrian traffic during street works or other temporary events. Effective temporary traffic management is important in ensuring the safety of workers, road users, and pedestrians, as well as minimizing disruption to traffic flow.
Street works are a common example of temporary traffic management. These works can include the installation or repair of utilities, the construction of new infrastructure, or the maintenance of existing roads. To ensure that these works can be carried out safely and efficiently, temporary traffic management measures must be put in place.
Another key element of temporary traffic management for street works is traffic cones and barriers. These physical barriers are used to redirect traffic and create a safe work zone for construction crews. Cones and barriers must be placed in strategic locations to guide traffic around the worksite and prevent any unwanted intrusion into the work zone.
What we offer
Event traffic management
Event traffic management is a crucial aspect of managing the flow of vehicular and pedestrian traffic during large-scale events, such as concerts, sporting events, festivals, and other public gatherings. Effective event traffic management ensures the safety of everyone involved, including event attendees, staff, and emergency responders, while minimizing disruption to traffic flow.
At Primus, we understand that every event is unique, and we provide customized traffic management solutions to meet your specific needs. Our team of experienced professionals will work closely with you to assess the traffic flow and develop a comprehensive plan to manage traffic before, during, and after the event.
One key aspect of event traffic management is signage. We use clear and visible signage to inform road users of upcoming events, changes to traffic flow, and alternative routes. Our signs are strategically placed to ensure maximum visibility and easy comprehension by drivers and pedestrians.
Road closures & diversions
Road closures and diversions are important components of temporary traffic management that are often necessary for managing traffic during events, construction works, or emergency situations. They involve rerouting traffic away from certain areas and redirecting it to alternative routes to ensure the safety of all road users and minimize disruption to traffic flow.
Road closures are typically used when a particular road or section of road needs to be completely closed off to traffic. This may be necessary during events, construction works, or other situations where there is a safety risk to drivers or pedestrians. Road closures are typically communicated to road users through clear and visible signage, which informs them of the closure and provides information on alternative routes.
Diversions, on the other hand, are used to redirect traffic around a closed road or section of road. Diversions are typically used when it is not feasible or safe to close a road completely, but traffic still needs to be rerouted away from a certain area. Diversions are typically communicated through signage and may involve temporary traffic lights or other traffic control measures to manage the flow of traffic on the diverted route.
Temporary traffic signals
Temporary traffic signals are an important component of temporary traffic management, used to control traffic flow and ensure the safety of all road users during events, construction works, or emergency situations. Temporary traffic signals are designed to function like permanent traffic signals, but can be easily installed and removed as needed.
Temporary traffic signals may be used to manage the flow of traffic at construction sites, where there may be lane closures or road closures that require traffic to be managed through temporary signals. They may also be used during events or other temporary situations where traffic needs to be rerouted, or when a particular section of the road needs to be closed off.
At Primus, we provide a comprehensive range of temporary traffic signal services, including installation, maintenance, and removal. Our team of experienced professionals will work closely with you to develop a plan that meets your specific needs, ensuring the safety of all road users and minimizing disruption to traffic flow.
