Traffic Control

Work-Zone Traffic Control and Flagger Training (CTAP)

The new Circuit Training and Assistance Program (CTAP) class will cover the changes in the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (Mn MUTCD) and how to use the field manual. I'll touch on the responsibilities of workers in the work zone, the layouts used for different speeds, volumes, and other situations, how to set up the devices properly, and which devices to use depending on the situation. Also some quality standards too.

In the flagging portion of the class we will discuss specific layouts for flagging operations, procedure, and conduct.

Both sections will have group exercises for attendees to figure which layout should be used in a given situation, which signs and devices to use, and the proper spacing required based on the speed of the roadway.

Who Should Attend

Road maintenance supervisors, work-zone traffic control supervisors, traffic control designers, city and county public works personnel, local and regional utilities personnel, construction contractors, consultants.

Workshop Schedule

Arranged, approximately 4 hours
