Traffic Controller

Licence Required

Every traffic controller holds the state ticket for the job (see below) and a valid White Card, which certifies that they have completed general construction induction training. We check every card against the state the job is in before the shift.

At DL Aus Group, our Traffic Controllers play a crucial role in maintaining the safety and efficiency of construction sites across QLD, NSW, VIC & WA. Our controllers hold the state ticket for the job, ensuring that construction zones are managed safely and effectively. They are equipped with the necessary certifications and knowledge to protect both the work team and the public, making sure that traffic flows smoothly around construction areas.

Understanding Traffic Control Tickets

Traffic control tickets are issued state by state, built on national units of competency. These are the levels you will see on a traffic guidance scheme:

1. Traffic controller (QLD TC, NSW TCR, WA TC)
Role: directs traffic with a Stop/Slow bat to keep people and vehicles safe through or around the work zone. Built on the national unit RIIWHS205E.

2. Implement traffic management plans (QLD TMI, NSW IMP, WA BWTM)
Role: sets up, monitors and removes signs and devices — cones, barriers, signs — exactly as the traffic guidance scheme shows. Built on RIIWHS302E.

3. Traffic management design (NSW PWZ; national framework: Traffic Management Designer)
Role: designs and modifies traffic guidance schemes. The plan is then approved by the road authority or road manager, not by the designer.

Training is delivered by a registered training organisation approved in each state. Queensland (TMR) and Western Australia (Main Roads WA) then issue their own accreditation, valid for 3 years.

State-Specific Requirements

Traffic control tickets do not automatically travel between states. Queensland only accepts TMR accreditation, Western Australia requires Main Roads WA accreditation, and NSW recognises most interstate cards (not Queensland's) once SafeWork NSW is notified. In Victoria, traffic management on roads that require it must be carried out by an accredited traffic management company — there, our traffic controllers work under your accredited traffic management provider.

Equipment and Support

Beyond qualified traffic controllers, we can arrange utes, arrow boards, traffic signage and other equipment for the job when you need them. Whether you need specific signs or a complete set-up, we organise the equipment to match your traffic guidance scheme and the requirements of the road authority.
