Traffic Management and Vehicle Pedestrian Safety on Site

Forklifts, delivery trucks and mobile plant sharing space with people on foot cause a steady stream of serious injuries in warehouses, yards and construction sites. This course teaches how to separate vehicles from pedestrians, design safe traffic routes, and control reversing, loading and blind spots. Delegates develop a practical traffic management plan for a yard or site layout, drawing on conditions common to South African logistics and industrial operations.
