Manual of temporary traffic management
1 Introduction
This manual is intended to detail how temporary traffic management is to be applied to Auckland City Council roads. It is intended for use by anyone who is competent and trained in accordance with this manual and other related documents, and who is involved in activities on these roads that may affect other road users including nonvehicular traffic. This includes council employees, suppliers and others. It is being developed, taking into account industry best practice, to maximise the safety of both road users and road workers following the identification of the hazards and associated risks involved with work undertaken within or affecting the road reserve. The manual is jointly sponsored by the Transport Infrastructure Delivery Group Manager and Transport Safety, Assets and Operations Group Manager and controlled by the Transport Operations Manager. The involvement of the following organisations in providing guidance on the content of this manual is gratefully acknowledged. Action Traffic Control Ltd Auckland Motorway Alliance Auckland Traffic Management Association Department of Labour Downer EDI Works (ITS) Ltd Fletcher Construction Ltd Fulton Hogan Ltd HEB Construction Ltd Higgins Contractors Ltd MWH Ltd New Zealand Transport Agency Roadsafe Ltd Waitakere City Council
This is a living document subject to regular review. A temporary traffic management section has been established on the Auckland City Council website (www.aucklandcity.govt.nz.) There is a review form which can be downloaded completed and returned by e mail to the address provided for consideration at the next review as detailed below. Any issues that are considered to be urgent may be passed to the Transport Operations Manager through mottm@aucklandcity.govt.nz or the Auckland City Council customer call centre at 09 379 2020. Where necessary, an immediate amendment to the manual will be made and notified to the industry. This is the first edition and is mandatory as a minimum standard for all operations on Auckland city roads from 1 July 2009. The second edition draft is scheduled for release on 28 August 2009 for industry discussion and will contain the following additional material: TMP approvals traffic management coordination delegations auditing line marking standards events cycle lane facilities coordination with neighbouring RCAs
Councils anticipated programme for development and release of the second edition is: 18 August 2009 28 August 2009 30 September 2009 12 October 2009 1 December 2010 1 July 2010 Working group to meet to discuss and agree remaining second edition material. Second edition material released to industry for general discussion. Submissions close. Working group to meet to discuss submissions on second edition material and agree any amendments. Second edition released for optional use from 1 January 2010. Second edition becomes mandatory.
The additional material listed above is for discussion only until such time as council has completed its consultation with the relevant industry members in accordance with the above implementation programme. Any changes to the manual will be notified via Auckland City Councils website as they occur (address above). Where parties have registered with mottm@aucklandcity.govt.nz, they will be notified of changes as they occur.
3 Glossary
Word Activity Definition The following additional information is provided to COPTTMs definition: The situation, event, work etc that interferes with the normal operation of the road to the extent that temporary traffic management is required to satisfy NZ legislation. Unscheduled activities are also included.
This vehicle is only permitted on Auckland City Council level 3 roads and only where it can meet COPTTM operating requirements (currently under development).
The following amendment is provided to COPTTMs definition: An uncontrolled, unplanned and unforeseeable event A person who has been briefed by the STMS to manage pedestrians, cyclists or other road users and road workers entering and leaving working spaces, including people involved in events. N.B. this does not include duties of a Manual Traffic Controller (see below)
Informed Worker
The briefing must cover: all duties required of the person, a record for any incidents observed, and use of radios where these are necessary. The briefing should be recorded and both parties must sign to the effect that the briefing has been delivered satisfactorily and fully understood. The person selected for this duty must be someone with satisfactory people skills, sufficient competency for the task described and a mature attitude.
This is the point where a road entering an intersection widens for the intersection itself. The main feature will generally be a continuous curve forming the connection between the two roads. N.B. it is not a point further back from the intersection where the road widens to form additional stacking lanes or other localised widenings are present. However, it can be a point where a left turn lane diverges past an independent traffic island. The detail below illustrates the intent
Intersection area
This point is used to determine distances from the intersection. The area beyond this point is deemed to be within the intersection. Further to COPTTMs (Section A - Glossary) definition, this is a person trained in accordance with the Roading New Zealand, Manual Traffic Controllers Handbook except as modified in section 8.2 below. This document is available at http://roadingnz.org.nz/pubs.html. The support of Roading New Zealand in making this document available is appreciated. The person selected for this duty must be someone with: satisfactory people skills, sufficient competency for the task described and a mature attitude
This is a fence that is constructed with the following attributes: minimum height of 900mm colour in accordance with section B2.2 of COPTTM retro-reflectivity in accordance with section B2.4 of COPTTM connecting systems to ensure units can be linked to form a continuous fence that allow units to be fitted together at any angle up to and including 90o continuous smooth faces with no openings, indentations or projections except as noted below no slope within the face presented to the public that has an angle of less than 60o to horizontal no legs projecting beyond the base of the fence a capability of holding water to a level of no more than 300mm above ground level purely for ballasting purposes N.B. where a safety fence is deemed necessary, the requirements for safety fences must also be applied and where a conflict arises between standards the higher standard will apply. The COPTTM definition is amended to read the area from which road users are excluded with safety zones placed around it to allow the activity to be performed in accordance with statutory requirements.
Working Space
4.1
The underlying standard for temporary traffic management is the code of practice for temporary traffic management (COPTTM). This should be used as the standard for all roads in the city except as modified below. It is intended that (COPTTM) will be adopted by council as its controlling standard for temporary traffic management in conjunction with this manual.
4.2
This supplement to COPTTM is to be used for roads designated as local roads and accessways in Appendix E subject to the details provided below. It is intended that the (LRS) will be adopted by council as its controlling standard for temporary traffic management in conjunction with this manual.
Level 2
In accordance with COPTTM, except for intersection areas, semi-static closures and inspections, pedestrian management and stop/go operations (184km - 15%) Roads carrying generally more than 10,000 vehicles per day. New standard to allow layouts to fit intensive urban situations with complex road layouts, frequent intersections, footpaths, cycleways, bus lanes, bus stops, loading zones, car parks and commercial entrances (81km - 7%) Not used except as detailed in 6.1.2 below. Local roads Roads carrying less than 10,000 vehicles per day but excluding accessway roads detailed below. COPTTM standards as modified by LRS to apply except for inspections, pedestrian management and stop/go operations (656km - 55%) Type A requires direct council involvement for TMP approval Type B will allow some self approval of TMPs by STMSs in accordance with clause 12.3.2 below (currently not applicable.) Accessways Roads with less than 500 vehicles per day (185km (15%) plus 49km (7%) possible), which either: have a permanent speed limit of 50kph or less and are: o less than 300 metres long and are cul-de-sacs or; o have a length of less than 100 metres between intersections with traffic signals, give way and/or stop controls on the road in question, i.e. not just on side roads or, are narrow roads i.e. less than 5 metres wide
Level 1
6 Accessway standard
This standard is to apply to roads designated as accessway level. COPTTM/LRS level local road is to apply except as modified below. The roads given this classification are listed in Appendix E.
6.1
Static sites
6.1.1
No temporary speed limits will be permitted on these roads except where the speed limit is required as part of an operation on an intersecting road.
6.1.2
Signs
The only signs required for vehicular traffic, except as detailed in clauses 6.1.1 and 6.1.6, will be an advance warning sign and works end sign. These are to be placed facing both directions (where traffic is two-way): 20 metres from the start of the delineation or where the delineation encroaches onto the intersection tangent point, signs and where necessary controls must be placed on the intersecting road at the appropriate designation level for that road
6.1.3
Delineation
Tapers are to be 25 metres long except where road characteristics make this impractical, e.g. presence of drives, formed parking areas, bus stops, pedestrian crossing points, loading zones, intersections, etc. Cone delineation is required along lanes where space permits. Where there is insufficient room, having consideration for all road users and working area needs, they may be omitted. Work areas are to be delineated as detailed in clause 8.1.4.
6.1.4
Safety zones
Lateral and longitudinal safety zones as recommended in accordance with LRS where space permits. Where there is insufficient room, having consideration for all road users and working area needs, they may be omitted.
6.1.5
Footpaths
Where footpaths are affected by the activity, pedestrians are to either be: directed to the footpath on the opposite side of the carriageway, with the appropriate signs, or; where there is no alternative footpath available, an informed worker is to be provided as detailed in clause 8.1.5 (3) to guide pedestrians around the operation
6.1.6
Alternating flows
Where the remaining carriageway width is between 6 and 2.75 metres and the restriction is more than 20 metres from an intersection tangent point, RG19 and 20 signs are to be placed immediately beside each end of the single lane together with their associated TW13 signs 10 metres away from the single lane with priority given to: the side of the road that is not being worked on except, when within 50 metres of an intersection tangent point where priority must be with the traffic moving away from the intersection
Any restriction in carriageway width to a width less than 6 metres that is less than 20 metres from an intersection tangent point will require site specific TMP. Any carriageway width less than 2.75 metres will require a road closure.
10
6.1.7
Example layouts
closure with more than 6 metres of carriageway to pass closure with less than 6 metres of carriageway to pass closure with more than 6 metres of carriageway to pass 0-20 metres from intersection tangent point closure with more than 6 metres of carriageway to pass inside intersection tangent point closure with less than 6 metres of carriageway to pass more than 20 metres from intersection tangent point closure with less than 6 metres of carriageway to pass less than 20 metres from intersection tangent point
The following layouts are included in Appendix A Accessway 1 Accessway 2 Accessway 3 Accessway 4 Accessway 5 Accessway 6
6.2
Mobile closures
6.2.1
Stopping time
A mobile closure may be used for activities contained within a 30 metre length of road that can be completed within one hour.
6.2.2
Equipment
Mobile closures will consist of just the work vehicles with externally mounted flashing beacons visible from 360. No vehicle fitted or static signs are required.
7.1
General
This road designation should apply to any road that carries more than 10,000 vehicles per day but otherwise meets the conditions detailed in clause 5. The standards specified below may also be used on L2 roads approaching or leaving intersections with stop, give way or traffic signal controls on the road in question where the working space lies within 100 metres of those controls.
7.2
Operating speeds
All roads are to be considered for operating speeds which are listed with their designation in Appendix 1. In addition, an operating speed of 30kph (except where the operating speed for the road is 20 or 10kph) is to be applied for the first 50 metres from an intersection tangent point where the road is the side road on a tee intersection, or where the intersection has traffic signals, give way and/or stop controls on the road in question, i.e. not just on side roads.
7.3
Static sites
11
7.3.1
The only temporary speed limits permitted on these roads will be 30kph on roads with a permanent speed limit of 50kph for the following situations: alternating flows loose surfaces lanes less than 3 metres wide
7.3.2
Design criteria

The following table of dimensions is to be used for these roads: Permanent or operating speed (kph) Sign visibility (m) Sign spacing (m) Longitudinal safety zone (m) Lateral safety zone (m) Taper length (m) Space between tapers (m) Minimum distance between tapers and intersection tangent points (not alternating flows) (m) Cone spacing in tapers (m) Cone spacing along lanes (m)
For short-term operations that do not force vehicular traffic to move into opposing traffic lanes, semi static closures as modified in clause 7.4 may be used. In the short term it is agreed that 30kph operating speeds may be used between 7am and 7pm. Outside these times 50kph operating speed is to be used including those roads with lower permanent or school zone speed limits. Amendment to this requirement will be considered on a case by case basis on application to the Auckland City Council Transport Operations Manager.
7.3.3
Example layouts
stop/go operation (work space more than 30 metres from intersection tangent point) stop/go operation (work space less than 30 metres from intersection tangent point) long term temporary lanes operation clear of intersection (work space more than 30 metres from tangent point) temporary lanes encroaching into intersection (work space less than 30 metres from tangent point)
The following layouts are included in Appendix B. Level 2 high density 1 Level 2 high density 2 Level 2 high density 3 Level 2 high density 4
7.4 7.4.1
These may be used for operations that close lanes without causing traffic to cross centre lines for any length of time provided the site is always active.
12
7.4.2
Equipment
TW1 and TW7 signs are required on the side of the carriageway being closed following the sign guidelines detailed in clause 7.3.2 except as noted in clause 7.4.4. Advance warning signs will be required on all side roads that lie between the advance warning sign on the main road and lead vehicle. No taper is required behind the shadow vehicle. Cones are required along the closure following the delineation guidelines detailed in section 7.3.2.
7.4.3
Intersections
The shadow vehicle may be placed up to 20 metres downstream from an intersection tangent point. In all cases where the sign spacing cannot be achieved between the shadow vehicle and the intersection, signs may be placed on the tangent point downstream from the intersection. Where there is insufficient room to achieve this clearance, the shadow vehicle must be placed upstream of the intersection with a gate created in the closure for the intersection.
7.4.4
Example layouts
semi static operation semi static operation more than 20 metres from intersection tangent point semi static operation less than 20 metres from intersection tangent point

8 Specific activities
8.1
Pedestrian management
8.1.1
Footpath width
Except as detailed below, the minimum width of footpath facility to be provided to pedestrians is 1.2 metres. unless the permanent footpath is narrower, width is to be at least 2.0 metres outside commercial zones including: o shops, o schools, o shared cycleways, o visually impaired routes, o aged persons homes, o hospitals, o tourist attractions, o bus stops, o libraries, o any other footpath as directed by council Where this cannot be achieved, width may be reduced to 1.2 metres provided that an informed worker is deployed in accordance with clause 8.1.4. Where the footpath is also a shared cycleway the provisions of clause 8.1.2 must be followed. Where there is less than 1.2 metres width available, the provisions of clause 8.1.4 should be applied.
13
8.1.2
Where a shared footpath and cycle way is reduced to less than 2.7 metres wide, cyclists should be excluded by closing the cycle way using the cycle lane closed sign detailed in Appendix E.
8.1.3
Accesses must be maintained open at all times unless prior arrangements have been agreed with the adjoining landowner and/or occupier.
8.1.4
Delineation
Where pedestrians could gain access to work area, the provisions outlined below are (in order of priority) to be: fully enclosed with solid wall fences (with additional safety fence attributes where required), or where: o there is an opening for access/exit, o insufficient room for compliant fencing, or o the provision of compliant fencing is deemed to be impractical; an informed worker on foot must be deployed to prevent public access and where necessary assist pedestrians around the operation.
Note: Where footpaths are affected by the operation and are left unattended, an unattended component of the TMP must be provided and approved.
8.1.5
Alternative routes
Where the footpath is blocked by the activity, it is to be closed as detailed in clause. 8.1.4. Except for accessways, alternative routes are to be provided in the following order of priority: 1. Fully delineated route with firm smooth surface and no vertical faces of more than 5mm including temporary carriageway crossing points with width requirements in accordance with clause 8.1.1 and no cross fall greater than 12.5% (N.B where the above surface condition standards are deemed to be impractical the issue should be referred to Council for a direction prior to preparation of a TMP): a. On side of road reserve away from the carriageway with a solid wall fence (with additional safety fence attributes where required) between work space and footpath. b. Between work area adjacent to remaining carriageway with: solid wall fences (with additional safety fence attributes where required) on both sides. one metre lateral safety zone between outside edge of delineation system and carriageway. c. Between work area adjacent to remaining carriageway with: solid wall fence (with additional safety fence attributes where required) on both sides. no lateral safety zone between outside edge of solid wall fence and carriageway. 2. Where there is a footpath on the opposite side, this is to be used with the appropriate signs via an appropriate marked and signed (see Appendix F) pedestrian crossing. 3. Where there is no alternative footpath safely available, sufficient informed workers are to be provided as detailed in clause 8.1.4 to guide pedestrians around the operation. N.B. this is a last resort option and will always require a site specific TMP approved by the RCA. On level 2 and level 2HD roads the informed workers must not be engaged in any other duties whilst performing this function. Prior to taking this action, the need to maintain other road user corridors, e.g. vehicle lanes, bus lanes, cycle lanes and other pedestrian routes, must be established. Delay calculations and/or trials in accordance with section 16.1.1 will be required to demonstrate the need. The following options should be considered in conjunction with this: alternative routes, stop/go and/or lane reductions or closure (including bus lanes, cycleways and other pedestrian routes)
14
8.2
Where the remaining carriageway width is less than 6 metres, stop/go paddle controlled operations will be required. These must have a MTC present on all side roads as well as each main approach. The sequence will be one paddle on GO, the rest on STOP. This will rotate around the operators depending on traffic demands. A controlling MTC will be appointed by the STMS to manage the MTC operation and give instructions. All MTCs and the on site STMS/TC must be equipped with dedicated hand radio transmitters and receivers using a channel that has their sole use. No one else should intrude on this channel. The named STMS/TC should only transmit messages in essential/emergency situations only. The controlling MTC should be located at the approach with the greatest demand. The decision on this should be based upon proximity to other intersections and traffic volume for the approach. Alternating flow tapers must never be less than 30 metres downstream from any intersection tangent point with give way, stop or traffic signal controls on the road in question. Where this clearance cannot be achieved the single lane must extend to the intersection and a stop/go control established on each approach leg to the intersection.
8.3
Inspections
On accessways, local and level 2HD and level 2 roads when undertaking inspections as defined in clause D7.2 of COPTTM a pre approved TMP is available for use on all Auckland City Council roads. This is included in Appendix A. Personnel undertaking inspections must either be trained to COPTTM L1TC level or have received ACC inspector training. Accredited training of trainers is available from mottm@aucklandcity.govt.nz. Training of individuals is also available as above if preferred. It is intended that this TMP be incorporated within each organisations own health and safety plan to fulfill their obligations for safety in regard to TTM requirements for undertaking inspections on these roads. Users of this TMP are reminded that it remains the responsibility of those organisations using this TMP to be satisfied that this document and training also meets their own obligations under New Zealand law. Their use of this material is deemed to indicate their acceptance of this TMP on the above terms. Personnel undertaking inspections must have received this training and carry a copy of the TMP with them at all times. This may be viewed by a council officer at any time during the inspection.

17.1 Road beautification design 17.1.1 Legislation
17.1.2
Design criteria
When designing road beautification, the following points must be considered: lateral position of the works in the road reserve: o more than 5 metres from live lanes o 2-5 metres from live lanes o less than 1 metre from live lanes level of road: o accessway o local road o level 2 high density o level 2 o level 3 proximity of other influences: o intersections o commercial entrances o on street car parks o bus stops o bus lanes o cycle lanes o footpaths impact of construction and maintenance of feature in terms of: o safety to workers o safety to public o disruption to community o cost of construction and ongoing maintenance to council o Resource Management Act
Auckland City Council 22
impact of presence of feature in terms of: o safety to public (distraction to road users) o practicality e.g. susceptibility to damage through environment, vandalism etc
17.1.3
Guide lines
In addition to the above requirements, beautification works within 1 metre of any live lane are only permitted that do not exceed 500 mm height at any stage of its life and do not intrude into a trafficable part of the road.
Manual of temporary traffic management Auckland City Council 23
17.1.3.4 Accessways
No beautification works within 1 metre of a live lane are permitted that: have the potential to cause damage to any other infrastructure within the road reserve, or constitute a hazard, or exceed 500 mm height at any stage of its life and intrude into a trafficable part of the road
17.1.4
Planning procedures
When the need for a road improvement is first identified, the person responsible for the planning of the operation should identify all possible beautification treatments that may benefit the completed works. These should be scoped in terms of the above criteria to ensure that they are achieved. Once this has been satisfied, the following should be identified: o construction costs (including TTM) o community costs (including disruption) o life expectancy Ongoing maintenance costs including all above items covering: o routine maintenance o heavy maintenance o repairs arising from possible damage Once these are quantified, funding for all the above requirements should be allocated before proceeding to tender and construction stage. To gain the above funding, the following information shall be provided: o benefits o costs o risk analysis with a statement to confirm compliance with clause 17.1.1 above

Inspections on live lanes - formal closure required For any activity on any road carrying more than: o 120 vehicles per hour with less than clear sight distance* (including L2 roads) o 240 vehicles per hour with more than clear sight distance (including L2 roads) 9. Notes A quick way of establishing actual count is to count vehicles for 3 minutes and multiple by 20 Clear sight distance is 3 x speed limit in metres (3 x 50 kph = 150 metres) No inspections to be performed on arterial roads during peak hours
Visiting a site controlled by an STMS/TC 1. When required to enter a site managed by a named STMS/TC, where possible, the inspector shall contact the STMS/TC before entering the site. 2. Where a site has a designated entrance, this must be used. The entry and exit procedures stipulated above are to be followed at all times. 3. Once on site, all inspectors will respect the authority of the named STMS/TC and will follow any further relevant instructions that person issues except where these compromise safety. 4. To remove any doubt, on site means anywhere between the first advance warning sign encountered and the final works end sign on all roads approaching and leaving the work site.
