Temporary Traffic Control Personnel During Events: Devices, Plans & Safety

Large public events—such as festivals, sports matches, marathons, or community markets—require more than just coordination and logistics. They demand skilled temporary traffic control personnel equipped with approved plans and certified devices to ensure smooth, safe travel for both pedestrians and drivers.

At All Set Traffic Solutions, we specialize in temporary traffic control personnel during events, delivering end-to-end traffic control planning, deployment, and equipment in compliance with national standards such as the MUTCD and Work Area Traffic Control Handbook (WATCH 2019).

🛠️ Devices Used by Traffic Control Personnel

We deploy only MUTCD-compliant traffic control devices which fall into the 4 types of traffic control devices:

1. Signs (e.g. detour signs, road closed, stop/slow paddles)

2. Signals (temporary traffic lights, portable signal systems)

3. Pavement markings (cones, paint, tape for lane guidance)

4. Barricades & channelizers (A-frame barricades, barriers, drums)

✅ All devices meet the requirements of traffic control devices as per MUTCD traffic control plan standards.

📋 Common Event Traffic Control Scenarios

1. Lane Shifts During Road Races or Parades

We design a lane shift traffic control plan that allows safe vehicular movement while rerouting parts of the road for participants.

2. Single Lane Closure for Entry/Exit Points

Using a single lane closure traffic control plan, our personnel set up directional flow for event venues or large gatherings.

3. Full Road Closures with Diversions

All Set personnel manage barricade setup, detour signage, and traffic updates while keeping emergency access open.
