Course Overview
VicRoads requires that invdividuals who are employed specifically as dedicated Traffic Controllers within the Traffic Management Industry must comply with the National Training Framework for Temporary Traffic Management and complete 3 days of training and assessment. This course does not meet that requirement.
However, if your team needs to be able to read and implement Traffic Management Plans and then use a stop/slow bats to control traffic as an adjunct to their regular role (for example – as part of a water asset maintenance crew or earthworks crew), then WAM Training’s one day Traffic Control Course is a perfect solution.
