Description This four-day program is designed for experienced highway work zone personnel who seek training in work zone traffic control. NJDOT and other agencies require a contractor to assign a supervisory-level employee with requisite onsite experience to act as the Traffic Control Coordinator (TCC) on roadway construction projects. Participants who successfully complete this course (and the prerequisites) will be eligible to serve as TCC with supervisory and coordinating roles.

The course material is developed around typical long-term and short-term roadwork that occurs on any state roadway, whether two lanes or multi-lane Interstates. The training covers the standard work zone protection as specified in the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). It also offers practical exercises on setting up and taking down work zone safety devices found in a traffic control plan. Sessions on OSHA, NJDOT, and state police relationships and work zone traffic control liability issues are included.

Prerequisites
In order to be eligible for enrollment you must show proof of having successfully completed a Work Zone Safety Awareness Program or Flagger Training Workshop, and proof of 4,000 hours (100 weeks) field experience in highway work zones.

The required documentation is a certificate or letter of completion from the training sponsor and a letter from past and/or present employers on employment verification. This information needs to be received and evaluated before the start of class.

If you do not meet the training prerequisite, you may still attend the Traffic Control Coordinator Program but will receive a certificate of successful attendance only, not the certificate of completion required by NJDOT for the Traffic Control Coordinator designation. If you do not meet the field experience requirement you may attend the Work Zone Safety Awareness Workshop, a one-day program.


Instructor John Wiggins, P.E.; Mary Ameen, P.E.; Lee Steiner; Sgt. Michael Brunson; New Jersey State Police; OSHA
