Work Zone Safety, Temporary Traffic Control (TTC) and the MUTCD

This is a new class from CSC



Tuesday, September 8

Monday, November 30
Monday, December 14


Workers in road work zones need to be properly trained in temporary traffic control setups and have the ability to assess conditions throughout the entire project duration that assists with evaluation, identification, and assessment of existing hazards while also providing guidance for corrective measures. To fulfill this need, this training course in Temporary Traffic Control (TTC) will aid safety professionals, project inspectors, maintenance personnel, contractors, and employees in the field in the proper application of TTC practices and procedures. Currently, Illinois uses the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) as references for guidance and recommendations on proper TTC procedures and for the implementation of potential work zone countermeasures. The primary goal of this training class is to familiarize personnel with the MUTCD for use in the field by practitioners, safety representatives, inspectors, and contractors to identify work zone deficiencies.

The objectives are to:
(1) cover the principles used in TTC safety and explain the liability associated with improper application of TTC;
(2) provide an understanding of the temporary traffic control zone process;
(3) acquaint personnel with the provisions of the MUTCD; and
(4) emphasize the requirements for traffic control procedures for work zone traffic control.


This class benefits project engineers, inspectors, contractors, their employees, safety representatives, and all those whose work involves street and highway operations.
