Traffic management in Lidcombe
Olympic Drive and the broader Lidcombe precinct occupy a strategically important position between the A3 motorway corridor and Rookwood Road, carrying freight and commuter volumes that reflect the suburb's history as an Olympic venue hub with ongoing industrial and logistics uses. Construction and maintenance works along these corridors require traffic management plans that account for heavy-vehicle access to the surrounding employment lands, as well as commuter flows to Lidcombe Station's multi-modal interchange. Large-scale events at the nearby Sydney Olympic Park precinct can compound traffic loads on the Olympic Drive corridor, creating additional demand for coordinated road-occupancy management.

FAQ
Traffic Management Plans — common questions
What's the difference between a TGS, a TMP and a CTMP?
A TMP is the high-level document that explains why and how a project affects the road network and sets the controls; a TGS is the diagram showing where each device and controller is placed and usually sits inside the TMP; a CTMP is a TMP written for a construction site and is commonly a condition of a Development Approval. The TMP says why and how, the TGS shows exactly where, and a CTMP is the construction version of a TMP.
Do I need a Traffic Management Plan for my project or event?
You generally need a TMP or CTMP whenever works or an event will affect how traffic, pedestrians or cyclists move on a public road — for example lane or road closures, footpath closures, or construction traffic entering a busy street. For construction a CTMP is frequently a condition of development consent; for events a TMP is required if you're closing or significantly affecting public roads. If unsure, a quick site review will confirm which document your job needs.
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.
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.
