Traffic management in Springwood
The Great Western Highway through Springwood is the primary link between the Blue Mountains National Park communities and the Sydney basin, making any roadworks along this corridor a region-wide concern for both residents and the tourism and emergency services sectors. Macquarie Road's local network supplements the highway for residential access, and the proximity of multiple national park entry points means traffic management plans must account for seasonal surges in visitor traffic as well as construction vehicle movements on the escarpment.

FAQ
Swept Path Analysis — common questions
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.
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.
