The Traffic Controller Course is designed for any person required to control traffic using a Stop-Slow bat in the Road Construction and Maintenance Industry.
The OH&S Act 2000 determines that high-risk work activities, which include working with traffic, require specific work activity training to be completed by all persons engaged in this work. The course was developed by the Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) to fulfill these requirements.
