Traffic Sign Plans & Approval Documents

The concept becomes the approvable plan: we prepare project-specific traffic sign plans and the documents required for the regulatory traffic order – as the basis for a compliant approval and a safe set-up of the work zone.

Our Services

Execution-ready planning, fully coordinated with the competent authorities.

  • Traffic sign and traffic management plansBased on the German StVO, VwV-StVO and RSA 21, taking into account ASR A5.2 and the relevant technical regulations.
  • Documents for the regulatory traffic orderCompiling and preparing the required plan and application documents, and supporting the coordination with the traffic authority, road authority and police.
  • Vehicle restraint systems, markings, signageSelection and design of vehicle restraint systems, temporary markings and signage – matching the application area and protection level.
  • Technical systems at work zonesDesign of temporary traffic signals, LED variable message signs, mobile congestion warning systems as well as temporary sign gantries and cantilever masts.
Why this plan matters: The traffic sign plan is the central planning and execution document of work zone safety. It forms the basis of the regulatory order, serves the executing companies as a binding specification and documents the intended protection of the work zone.

Traffic sign plan

A traffic sign plan shows the protection of a work zone in full: the traffic routing for each construction phase, barriers and guidance devices, the temporary signage including existing signs to be covered, and – where required – technical systems such as traffic signals or variable message signs with their locations and switching states. The basis are the standard plans of RSA 21, adapted to the specific site – where no standard case fits, we develop the protection scheme as a project-specific solution. The spectrum ranges from classic work zone protection with detour signage to plans for technical systems – as in the following example of a mobile congestion warning system.

How we work

01

Record the basics

Capture concept, site conditions and construction sequence – including the requirements of all phases.

02

Prepare the plan

Produce approvable traffic sign plans in accordance with the relevant regulations.

03

Coordinate the documents

Compile plan and application documents and align them with the authority, road owner and police.

04

Support through set-up

Resolve queries during the procedure and technically support the implementation of the plan.
