• it is particularly important that appropriate maintenance procedures should be in place and strictly adhered to by personnel. These maintenance procedures must demonstrate thoroughness, and must reflect a duty to care and to report defects. The maintenance procedure can be used as evidence regarding the standard of care taken by the road authority concerned; • it is also particularly important that proper maintenance records be kept so that in the event of litigation there w ill be no doubt as to the nature and extent of the maintenance actions taken, and w hen such actions w ere taken. Many litigation actions w ould tend to shift the blame for an accident onto some aspect of the traffic signal. The follow ing routine maintenance actions are primarily aimed at intervention in a cost-effective manner: • routine controller cabinet maintenance; • routine signal head maintenance; • routine signal post maintenance; • routine push button maintenance; • routine detector loop maintenance; • routine maintenance of draw boxes and manholes; • routine maintenance of electrical cables and other electrical components; • routine controller maintenance; and • routine maintenance of road signs and markings. These actions are aimed at repairing reported malfunctions in traffic signals. The process consists of: • fault detection; and • response to malfunctions. Records and Reports In terms of the South African Road Signs Manual, it is stated that an essential component of a traffic signal management system is its inventory of assets and the keeping of various types of records. The follow ing are a minimum that should be kept by a road authority: • installation records; • fault log and advice records; • maintenance records; and • controller logs. It is stated in the Road Signs Manual that an annual report is to be draw n up by the Traffic Signal Division providing an assessment of key performance indices linked to the goals and objectives of providing traffic signals. The follow ing are the typical contents of such an annual report: • General; • Institutional; • Special projects; • Routine projects; • Training and technology transfer; • Programme and budget; and SDM DITP, 2008 to 2013 138 31 Aug 2010
• Statistics. (d) Outputs SDM w ill encourage and assists its Local Municipalities to systematically implement the Traffic Signal Management Process as stipulated in the South African Road Signs Manual, Volume 3: Traffic Signal Design. SDM w ill assist its Local Municipalities w ith regular maintenance of traffic signals in their respective jurisdictional areas. SDM w ill assist its Local Municipalities w ith assessing the need for signalised intersections (i.e. Traffic Impact Assessments) in highly developed areas. 9.5 Traffic Signage and Road Markings (a) Background Road Management Systems (RMS) are formalised procedures used to assist the authority in assessing the current and future needs for maintenance, rehabilitation, upgrading and geometric improvements of the road system under the authority’s jurisdiction. Road management comprises a number of diverse activities and in order to undertake the planning, organisation and control of these functions, some road authorities have developed a number of management systems to deal w ith these activities individually. The management system also forms the technical base for budgeting and application for funding. A Road Signs Management System (RSMS) can be defined as a subsystem of a RMS w hich ensures the availability of accurate information concerning road signs on the road netw ork. Further, SDM has recently done an audit to establish the condition of traffic signs. This audit contains a phased approach to fix or replace outdated or damaged signs in <strong>Sedibeng</strong>. (b) Problem Statement Maintaining road signs and markings cost-effectively ensures the functionality of these traffic control devices and protects them as a valuable asset. It also ensures that the increasing delictual claims against road authorities as a result of unserviceable road signs and markings are kept to a minimum. (c) Strategy A step-by-step process is clearly defined in the South African Road Signs Manual Volume 2 <strong>Chapter</strong> 16, to implement a Road Signs Management System. It consists of the follow ing: • Step 1 : Formulate Road Sign Policy o netw ork definition o road classification o route and Guidance Sign System o selection of orientation names SDM DITP, 2008 to 2013 139 31 Aug 2010
