Segregation of Plant and Pedestrians

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

Access to our site is restricted as the new building footprint takes up the whole of the road elevation. As such, we have devised a system whereby vehicles entering site are totally segregated from operatives.

We have an online delivery booking-in system which must be used by our subcontractors. Once the delivery has been approved, it is allowed onto site. A delivery will turn up to site and be greeted by our lead traffic marshal. The driver receives a delivery driver induction prior to entering site.

The lead traffic marshal radios the other traffic marshals who are working on the site to inform them that there is a vehicle entering. The radio communication triggers the closure of the pedestrian walkway across the haul road and the opening of the barriers across the site haul road.
