Brighton-Le-Sands · St George
Traffic Consultants delivers traffic guidance schemes across Brighton-Le-Sands and the wider St George. The Grand Parade, Bay Street, and Brighton-Le-Sands beachfront event traffic. We prepare the documentation, obtain the permits and put accredited people on site.
What's included
To-scale schemes, drawn for your site, that show where every sign, taper and controller goes. Known as TCPs until recently, and drawn to standard so they pass approval. In Brighton-Le-Sands the scheme has to suit real lane widths and movements, so we design to AS 1742.3 and the TCAWS for the specific site.

Traffic management in Brighton-Le-Sands
The Grand Parade and Bay Street form Brighton-Le-Sands' beachfront spine, handling seasonal surges in recreational traffic during summer events and community festivals along the St George foreshore. Construction activity in the mixed-use development corridor and periodic beachfront events require temporary road-closure permits, event pedestrian management and parking restriction plans coordinated with Georges River Council to protect the amenity of this popular waterfront destination.
FAQ
Traffic Guidance Schemes — common questions
What is a Traffic Guidance Scheme (TGS)?
A TGS is a site-specific, to-scale diagram that shows exactly where every advance-warning sign, cone, barrier, taper and traffic controller goes around a work zone or event. In NSW it replaced the older term Traffic Control Plan (TCP), and a compliant TGS is drawn to the TfNSW TCAWS manual and AS 1742.3.
Who is legally allowed to prepare a TGS or TMP in NSW?
Only a person holding the SafeWork NSW Prepare a Work Zone Traffic Management Plan (PWZTMP) accreditation can legally design or modify a TGS or TMP, and a compliant TGS carries the accredited designer's name and TfNSW certification details. On the road, Traffic Controller (TCR) card-holders direct traffic and Traffic Plan Implementer (IMP) card-holders set up and pack down the scheme — different cards for different jobs.
Why was a generic or template traffic plan rejected by council?
Generic templates are one of the most common reasons councils reject a submission, because they don't show the real site-specific detail — exact clearances, bus zones, driveways, fire hydrants, school-crossing locations and local constraints. NSW councils require a plan drawn for your specific site by an accredited designer to TCAWS and AS 1742.3, so replacing a template with a site-specific TGS is usually what gets an application approved.
What standards do your traffic management documents follow?
In NSW, temporary traffic management documents are prepared to the Transport for NSW Traffic Control at Work Sites (TCAWS) manual, which supplements Australian Standard AS 1742.3 (traffic control for works on roads). Swept-path and vehicle-access checks reference the AS 2890 series and Austroads design vehicles. We prepare TGS and TMP documents to these current standards through PWZTMP-accredited designers.
