Description

This course covers the entire process of designing, installing, maintaining, and evaluating temporary traffic control in work zones. Upon completion of this course, participants will be equipped with a comprehensive understanding of the engineering concepts necessary for designing effective traffic control plans. They will grasp the fundamental principles of temporary traffic control, enabling them to make informed discretionary decisions and adjustments. Participants will also be able to cite the sources of standards, guidelines, and specifications that govern the design of traffic control plans (TCPs). Additionally, they will acquire the skills to design TCPs that facilitate the inspection and maintenance functions of traffic control systems. Finally, participants will understand the proper processes and procedures for making TCP adjustments, managing the disposition of actions generated, and recognizing the legal implications involved.

This presentation will NOT be recorded, there will be NO exam, and NO ATSSA certification provided. Upon completion of this presentation, participants will receive a Certificate of Completion from TLN. This certificate of completion will be in the participants record on the TLN Learning Management System (LMS). Participants may log in to the LMS and retrieve their certificate to download or print.
