Traffic safety

Ensure road safety

​

As soon as a construction site security or a blockage in or directly adjacent public traffic area for any construction projects - or deliveries such as a prefabricated garage or a prefabricated house - is to be set up, the interests of road users and authorities must be taken into account, since traffic safety must be guaranteed at all times is.

The roads must be properly secured and signposted in the corresponding areas. Early announcements and appropriate safety measures should ensure that there is no traffic chaos or conflicts. It is therefore very important to notify the relevant road traffic authorities as early as possible and in due time of such construction work and the associated interference with road traffic.

​

Plan early and apply in accordance with the regulations

​

All traffic signs and facilities for building site security are on

the basis of the road traffic regulations according to § 45 StVO from the competent authority

to arrange. Applications are usually to be sent to the responsible person at least 2 weeks in advance

To submit the issuing authority. Road signs must be 72 hours (3 days)

be asked beforehand ... You should therefore plan enough time to process and implement your request.

The most important and most frequent reason for short-term construction site security is the space required for loading and unloading work on the construction site. The blocking of the traffic area during the entire construction period will only be granted if it is proven to be absolutely necessary.

Self-made or created construction site safeguards by means of flutter tape or self-made signs are not permitted and, in the worst case, result in uninvited visitors.

​

Traffic sign plans / signage plans. Who is allowed to do what and where is it regulated?

​

Traffic safety is always necessary if construction work is to take place in the area of public roads or if those are touched. This also applies if events, markets or similar events are to take place in public places or streets. Traffic safety is therefore necessary in order to divert traffic or to safely lead it past construction sites. All measures required for this are legally stipulated and regulated in the Guidelines for Securing Workplaces (RSA).

The client or organizer must therefore obtain an official permit (VRAO) from the responsible authority, which sometimes contains the appropriate traffic plans including traffic signs and signs for the area concerned.

If this is not included with the application, the registration of barriers for your project is incomplete and therefore cannot be approved.

An excerpt from MVAS 1999 describes the prerequisites that should be demanded by the authority:

".... According to the additional technical contract conditions and guidelines for securing work at workplaces on roads (ZTV-SA 97) introduced with the announcement of January 13, 1998 (AllMBl p. 81), evidence of the suitability and qualification of the named person responsible for securing Jobs with the offer are requested by the bidder. "
