Safe Road Services:<br />

Who we are, and<br />

WAIKATO BUSINESS NEWS <strong>July</strong>/<strong>August</strong> <strong>2019</strong><br />

what we do<br />

Safe Road Services is a Waipā-based,<br />

complete traffic management company<br />

that pride ourselves on offering safe,<br />

effective solutions for all temporary traffic<br />

management requirements. From the<br />

beginning stages of training, to traffic<br />

management plan (TMP) drawings,<br />

temporary traffic management and even<br />

reinstatements after the work is complete.<br />

Safe Road Services was<br />

first established in 2017.<br />

Since then we have<br />

grown to include a team of<br />

nearly 30 full time and on-call<br />

staff, qualified in all aspects<br />

of traffic management. We<br />

have the equipment and are<br />

adequately trained to set up<br />

sites of all sizes and durations.<br />

We can also provide 24/7<br />

emergency response crews.<br />

Our current clientele includes<br />

everything from reputable<br />

civil construction and highway<br />

maintenance companies<br />

through to tree trimming and<br />

utilities.<br />

We are a very safety-conscious<br />

company and have a<br />

strong focus on ensuring everyone<br />

returns home safe, whether<br />

it be our staff, our clients or<br />

the general public - everyone's<br />

safety is our priority. We regularly<br />

provide traffic management<br />

sites to suit a variety of<br />

works, roads and durations.<br />

These sites are to ensure a<br />

safety barrier between the<br />

travelling public and the workers<br />

who are working within<br />

the road corridor. With the<br />

increase in health and safety<br />

legislation over recent years,<br />

more and more businesses are<br />

beginning to understand the<br />

need to have adequate traffic<br />

management when working<br />

around the roads, to ensure the<br />

safety of their staff as well as<br />

the public.<br />

Our management staff are<br />

qualified and experienced<br />

in creating and designing<br />

TMPs for all different scopes<br />

of work. Once we have created<br />

the TMP, we then submit<br />

it to the appropriate road<br />

controlling authorities for<br />

approval.<br />

As well as TMP drawings<br />

and temporary traffic management<br />

sites, we provide<br />

training courses which are<br />

run by our in-house certified<br />

provider with a wealth of<br />

on-the-job experience. Graduates<br />

of all Site Traffic Management<br />

courses receive a NZ<br />

Transport Agency-approved<br />

certification, qualifying them<br />

to work on road networks<br />

throughout New Zealand. We<br />

offer a one-day Traffic Controller<br />

(TC) training course,<br />

a two-day level 1 Site Traffic<br />

Management Supervisor<br />

(STMS) course as well as a<br />

one-day refresher, and a halfday<br />

WCTL course - which is<br />

necessary if you drive a waste<br />

control vehicle.<br />

Here at Safe Road Services,<br />

we are strong believers in giving<br />

back to the community. We<br />

choose to show our support<br />

by sponsoring local sporting<br />

teams and events within the<br />

Waipa. We are proud sponsors<br />

of the Cambridge High School<br />

second XV rugby team, and<br />

the special children’s Christmas<br />

parties.<br />

Feel free to call us anytime,<br />

we are happy to help<br />

take bookings or answer any<br />

queries.<br />
