🧠 What is Traffic Management?

-
Risk assessment
-
Clear signage and lighting
-
Certified personnel
-
Communication with the public and authorities

Temporary Traffic Signals – Used in low-visibility or multi-lane closures
-
Detours & Diversions – Planned alternate routes
-
Lane Closures – Single or multiple lane blocks on highways
