FAQ
What is Traffic Management?
Traffic management is temporary measures put in place to control or adjust the flow of traffic. Nationwide Traffic Solutions deliver all phases of traffic management and implement a range of traffic management schemes e.g. temporary traffic light systems, road closures, diversions, contraflows, and more.
Temporary traffic management is needed for a variety of reasons. For example construction works, road maintenance work commissioned by a local council or pedestrian management for a sporting event or village parade.

What permits or licenses do I need?
Some traffic management works may not be undertaken before a permit or licence has been applied for and approved. We can talk you through the applications you need and take care of them for you. Examples include E-ton noticing, parking suspension notices, Temporary Traffic Regulation Orders (TTROs), mobile lifting and/or crane licences.
What is your call out time for emergency traffic management?
We can deliver traffic management for short notice or emergency works and aim to be on site within two hours of the initial call. As we are available 24/7, simply call us on our emergency out of hours contact number which is 01652 640996.
Is there enough room for my works to take place?
All our traffic management schemes comply with Chapter 8 Traffic Manual regulations, which means they will be installed in accordance with up to date legislation.
Before any traffic management is installed, a site survey, method statement and risk assessment will be filled in by one of our Operatives. These procedures resolve any obstructions and verify there is enough space for the works to take place.
How long does traffic management take to install?
The answer to this question is…how long is a piece of string?!
The time it takes to install traffic management varies widely depending on the job. For example a small footpath closure can take less than an hour, but some larger jobs are completed in several phases and can span over weeks.
Across all our works we conduct site inspections every two hours to make sure all installed traffic management is visible and well maintained.

I received an advance warning letter through the post, do I need to do anything?
In order to make residents aware of road works in the local area, and to minimise disruption, our team can erect temporary advance warning signage and conduct a letter drop.
If you receive a letter from us, you don’t need to do anything. Whilst it is more than likely you will not be affected, it’s a good idea to make a note of the date and time of the works and, if you are planning to travel during this time, adjust your route if necessary.
