  8. Notice Requirements • Inadequate time to review TM proposals • TM is an important requirement – seems to be left to last minute • MRWA have notice requirements for lane closures and for advertising requirements • We need time to consider other options…..

  9. Innovative Thinking • Night work and double shifts – get in, get out • Full road closures – If required we can examine closing the road for the entire weekend or number of nights. More pain but not dragged out • Close the road completely over a long weekend or during school holidays • Close one lane at a time – keep access open • Build temporary roads on the ultimate alignment - Gateway • What's best for the travelling public? – Not always the best for the construction program

  10. Lessons Learnt • Generally Project Managers are focused on the Project e.g. Cost, Time etc. • TM is a very important part of the Project • We can assist if given enough time • Projects can be moved if agencies are given enough time • Approval for TMP’s is not a given and the process takes time. We can assist with TMP’s and considering alternative options • AWTM, RTM, PM, Traffic signal experts, Councils, sit down early and discuss issues – Establish working group to open lines of Communication • Use lessons learnt from other projects – traffic volumes may seem high but there are always options, Each situation is unique
