What is Stop & Go traffic control?

Stop and Go is a manual traffic control method using handheld or pole-mounted signs to alternate traffic flow between two directions on a single carriageway. This system is particularly useful for short-term roadworks or in situations where traffic lights may not be practical or necessary. It's key benefits are:

  • Quick Setup: Easily deployed for temporary, short-term projects or emergencies.
  • Cost-Effective: Requires minimal equipment, making it a cost-efficient solution for temporary traffic control.
  • Flexible: Ideal for low-to-moderate traffic volumes and can be easily adjusted to meet changing traffic conditions.
  • High Control: Provides direct, real-time control over traffic, helping to prevent congestion and maintain safety.

Our Stop & Go planning and delivery services

At Instant Traffic Management, we offer a full range of Stop and Go traffic control services to ensure your project runs smoothly and safely. From the initial planning stages to on-site delivery, our services are tailored to meet your specific needs.

We begin with a detailed traffic management plan designed to ensure your Stop and Go system operates efficiently and safely. Our planning process includes:

  • Site Assessment: We conduct a thorough assessment of your site, analysing traffic volumes, road conditions, and potential hazards to create the most effective traffic control plan.
  • Compliance with Regulations: All Stop and Go systems are planned in accordance with Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual, ensuring full legal compliance and the safety of road users and workers.
  • Risk Assessment: We evaluate potential risks to both operators and road users, implementing measures to minimise hazards and ensure a safe working environment.

Our Stop and Go systems are operated by qualified traffic management personnel, ensuring that traffic is controlled safely and efficiently. Our operators are:

  • Trained and Accredited: All of our traffic management personnel are fully trained and accredited in accordance with National Highways Sector Scheme (NHSS) 12D for temporary traffic management.
  • Experienced in All Situations: Whether you're managing a small roadworks project or a larger event, our team has the experience and skills to manage traffic flow effectively.
  • Safety-Focused: We ensure that all operators follow strict safety protocols to protect themselves, your workforce, and the public.

Once planning is complete, we manage the on-site setup and delivery of the Stop and Go system. This includes:

  • Sign Placement: Our team sets up Stop and Go signs in optimal locations to ensure clear visibility for approaching traffic.
  • Traffic Control: Our operators alternate traffic flow as needed, maintaining clear communication between each end of the system to ensure smooth operation.
  • Real-Time Adjustments: We monitor traffic conditions in real time, making adjustments to the flow as necessary to minimise delays and ensure safety.

For urgent or unexpected roadworks, we provide emergency Stop and Go services that can be deployed quickly to control traffic and ensure safety.
