What is a construction traffic controller?

Construction Traffic Controllers are professionals responsible for managing the flow of vehicles and pedestrians around construction sites to ensure safety and minimize disruptions. They use signs, signals, and barriers to direct traffic and communicate with drivers and construction workers. Their role is essential for preventing accidents and maintaining order in areas where construction activities intersect with public roads or pathways. Traffic Controllers are often required to wear high-visibility clothing and may work in various weather conditions. Training and certification are typically required, depending on local regulations.
