Snippets from the course
Two short extracts taken straight from the course material, so you know exactly what you're signing up for.
The traffic management plan
A **traffic management plan (TMP)** sets out how vehicles and pedestrians will move around the site safely. It should be briefed at induction and updated as the site changes.
Banksmen and vehicle marshals
A trained **banksman** or **vehicle marshal** guides vehicles using agreed signals. They must stand in a safe position, visible to the driver, and never walk behind a reversing vehicle.
