Managing

TMM / TSS-TSCO Management (Design and Manage):

The key to a complaint and safe scheme is the management understanding the design and why it was completed in a specific way, we believe that especially on major schemes the design lead and the Traffic Management Manager need to be the same person, this ensures that the traffic management is as per the agreed design and also the designer can complete any design changes that may need to happen on site, this also ensures that the design is constantly in review and assured by the Design lead/ Traffic Manager.  We work for and closely with the principle contractor to ensure that the scheme is as per design and set out using the correct procedures and to the agreed / approved RAM/WPP. prior to the contract approval with the subcontractors Wilson Traffic Consultants can complete a full detailed RAMS/WPP review to ensure that they meet the required standards.

For every project with a Highway Interface, regardless of its size, complexity or geographical location, Wilson Traffic Consultants can assist in ensuring the scheme is as safe as possible. From the outset, we can provide scheme planning services offering completely impartial analysis of your project with a clear concise quantitative evaluation.

To ensure your Traffic Management Sub-Contractors meet the required standard we offer an impartial review of the TTM site by carrying out an Independent Traffic Management Audit.  The audit, which can take place during daylight or night time hours, gives a thorough review of the site extents to ensure compliance with current standards and regulations and gives you peace of mind that the Temporary Traffic Management you are being provided with meets the highest standard of safety for both the on site personnel and the travelling public.  Our Audits, which are recorded on our own bespoke Audit Review Form including video footage, highlight any non-conformance, offer a solution to rectify the issue and then allow the actions to be followed up until signed off by the sites S.H.E representative once complete, ensuring a continuous measurable improvement process.  The Assurance audits can also be completed as part of  ongoing safety management  works where we have been included in the completion of the design or not.
