Traffic Management Plans (TMPs)

There are events or activities in the road that don't require a Corridor Access Request (CAR) and a Work Access Permit (WAP) but still require a Traffic Management Plan (TMP). This includes:

  • street parades
  • cycle races
  • running or walking events, and
  • any other event which will seriously impact on the road network.

Who is approved to submit a TMP?

TMPs can only be completed by a Site Traffic Management Supervisor (STMS) with a current NZTA-approved qualification, and must be in accordance with NZTA's Code of practice for temporary traffic management (CoPTTM).

How many days before the event/activity does a TMP need to be submitted?

  1. If a road closure is required, a TMP is to be submitted to us 60 working days before the event/activity.
  2. If no closure is required and the event/works are short term or mobile, TMPs must be submitted a minimum of five working days prior to the start of the event/works.
  3. If no closure is required, and the event/works are long-term, TMPs must be submitted a minimum of ten working days prior to the start of the event/works.

Work access permits – WAPs

Before undertaking work in the legal road you must make a Corridor Access Request (CAR) – (formerly a Road Opening Notice – RON) and receive a Works Access Permit (WAP) from the Council. Some examples of activities requiring a permit are:

  • trenching works
  • footpaths and entranceway
  • work within the berm or shoulder of the road
  • tree work, scaffolding and crane work.

Submit your application through the "Before U Dig" website to check for locations of any underground services. This is a web based service that you or your contractor use to get plans and information emailed out to you. This also provides the mechanism for you to make a Corridor Access Request ADD LINK and provide us with a Traffic Management Plan to protect your site, contractors, and the public during operations. There are other events or activities in the road that don't require a CAR and WAP but still require a Traffic Management Plan (TMP) this includes:

  •  any work on Road Reserve
  •  street parades
  •  cycle races
  •  running or walking events
  •  any other event which will seriously impact on the road network.
