1.0 INTRODUCTION Patrick is committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment. As such, our first priority is to ensure all tasks conducted within the Dampier Port Operations are conducted in a safe, risk assessed manner to minimise or eliminate exposure to our people, business, environment and clients in line with Patrick Policy. 2.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The purpose of the Traffic Management Plan (TMP) is to ensure there is a specific management structure in place that defines the requirements for the safe effective management of traffic for the Patrick Dampier Operations in concert with the Pilbara Port Authority requirements for third party operators working on the Dampier Cargo Wharf (DCW) and the Patrick owned Dampier Floating Dock (DFD). It relates to all Patrick owned plant and equipment used in the supply and logistics of goods received to the Dampier Cargo Wharf and Dampier Floating Dock via MOF Road to all Patrick operational areas including sub leased storage sheds. 3.0 DEFINITIONS TMP TCP TCD DCW DFD MOF PPA Traffic Management Plan Traffic Control Plan Traffic Control Diagram Dampier Cargo Wharf Dampier Floating Dock Marine Offloading Facility Pilbara Ports Authority (previously Dampier Port Authority DPA) 4.0 ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES 4.1 Business Manager Western Region Provides resources and equipment to enable compliance with this plan. 4.2 Operations Manager Communicates with Shift Coordinators to identify future shift scope of work and any traffic changes required. Participates in the preparation of risk assessments and traffic control plans as required. Reviews any proposed TCP for approval, in a timely manner prior to the upcoming shift where the traffic changes have been proposed. Monitors the effectiveness of this plan and takes action for improvement when identified. 4.3 Shift Coordinators Identify the upcoming scope of work and any traffic changes necessary to effectively mitigate risk in that area. Brief all required personnel on the traffic changes; make arrangements to ensure all incoming personnel (truck operators, contractors) fully understand the new traffic changes, before entering the site. 5
Contact Team Leader/s when trucks and goods are assigned to an area and inform of incoming traffic to their area, namely number of trucks, goods for storage or offloading. Attend the traffic change location early in the shift and assess whether additional controls are needed. e.g. vehicle escort, restrict receivables to staging area, etc. 4.4 Team Leader Ensure the work crew to develop a JSA with changed traffic requirements and implement controls to as low as reasonably practicable. Ensure fit for purpose equipment is used (barricades, signage, traffic controller, hi vis vest) and must 4.5 Plant and Vehicle Operators Comply with the requirements of this procedure. Report all traffic incidents / near misses. 4.6 General Workforce Comply with the requirements of this procedure. Utilise personnel access ways provided. Report all traffic incidents / near misses. 4.7 Traffic Controllers Shift Coordinators will liaise with the PPA and in agreement shall provide Traffic Controllers at designated locations across the site to direct traffic interface areas and specifically to areas identified in the TCP, if required. They will be identified specifically by a different coloured vest and signage as required. A Traffic Controller has the authority to; Direct and control the movement of vehicles, mobile plant and equipment. Ensure the equipment required to undertake this role is in place and operational. Warn personnel or stop the work being undertaken if an unsafe situation develops. Provide assistance in the case of an emergency 4.8 SHE Coordinator Will receive and review all TCPs with JSA, to ensure all hazards have been identified, risks assessed and controls are identified. Enter the TCP onto the TCP Register. Ensure that the TCP is closed out / document handed in, copy filed. Conduct compliance audits against the Traffic Management Plan and Traffic Control Plans. 4.9 Driver / Operator Driver or operator is an approved person who operates a vehicle, mobile plant or equipment in the Patrick Operations. All drivers and operators must be approved to drive on site. The Patrick Operations Traffic Management Plan (TMP) shall be submitted to the PPA for approval. The TMP is to be updated as major and / or long term conditions changes occur. Any revision of the TMP, once approved by the PPA, shall be communicated to the workforce as noted under Section 6, TCP Implementation Procedure. It shall as a minimum be reviewed annually. For any major whole of site traffic change and realignment, the Shift Coordinator from each area will generate a TCP in line with their traffic flow diagram, which simultaneously roll out the changes so the whole site becomes compliant and the TMP changes are met. 6
5.0 TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN (TCP) Traffic Control Plans document the specific proposals to change traffic management arrangements on a shift by shift basis and consist of a text document and Traffic Control Diagram (TCD), Appendix 2. There may be only one or several TCPs on any given day depending on work front requirements. 6.0 TRAFFIC CONTROL IMPLEMENTATION PROCEDURE If a traffic change is required the following steps should be followed: The Shift Coordinator is to generate a TCP (Appendix 2), utilising the SWI relevant to the assigned scope of works the traffic changes are needed for, in consultation with the Operations Manager and / or Team Leader conduct the risk assessment for those changes. Have the completed TCP reviewed by SHE department (Where required i.e. Major changes) Submit it to the Operations Manager for approval and email a copy, prior to the next shift pre start, to the relevant Managers including the SHE Manager, PPA Management, relevant Yard / Wharf Area Managers and Shift Supervisors. The relevant Shift Coordinator will then inform all personnel at the pre start, of the traffic changes in their area and assign a work crew with Team Leader to set up the traffic changes immediately after pre start and prior to work commencing, or traffic moving through that area. After the pre start announcement, the Shift Coordinator will place the TCP on the Safety noticeboard for all personnel to check. Monitor the job and TCP to ensure continuity and compliance. Submit a new TCP if the end date has expired and job is yet to be completed. Considerations: List the equipment and personnel required to carry out the job task. Check availability prior to submitting TCP. Define and verify pedestrian access ways and safe separation requirements between people and moving vehicles, plant or equipment. Consider night shift and low lighting situations. Identify the time frame the TCP is required for, as an end date is required. Verify that persons undertaking tasks required by this procedure are trained and competent. The level of skill and qualification of a Traffic Controller may alter depending on the risks identified in the risk assessment for the work being performed. The Shift Coordinator shall determine, based on the level of risk, the competency and experience required by the Traffic Controller. Communicate with the relevant Yard / Wharf Area Managers and Shift Supervisors regarding goods trucks / transportation coming through to their area, so any congestion issues can be managed. 7.0 TRAFFIC CONTROL PLAN (TCP) REQUIREMENTS 7.1 Hazard Identification Personnel will be required to identify all foreseeable hazards and proposed controls in their Traffic Control Plan. These hazards would include, but not be limited to the following: Interface issues with existing operations and other Contractors Vehicle / mobile plant and equipment interface with pedestrians Restricted areas / exclusion zones 7
Loading and unloading of trucks Drive through versus need to reverse Blind crest and corners Weather conditions including inclement weather Dust, heat haze, sun, smoke, shadows that may restrict driver s vision Wind, crane considerations, slew Condition of road surfaces Vehicle speed Road rules Competent and authorised personnel approved by Patrick Operations to operate Patrick particular plant or light vehicle at the DCW/DFD site. This includes verification of competency, appropriate tickets / licences and challenge testing. A Traffic Control Plan (TCP) shall be generated for any traffic changes on this site. All TCPs will include a Traffic Control Diagram (TCD) of the traffic changes, using the TCP proforma Appendix 1. Any changes to site traffic management impacting any stakeholders must first be approved by the PPA. The TMP shall require amendment when major and / or long term traffic changes are identified that affect much of the traffic flow across site. Any proposed changes to this TMP will require submission to and approval by Patrick and the PPA. A TCP will be generated for any short term traffic changes needed to safely execute scope of works in a specific area, but will not require the TMP to be amended nor submitted to Patrick Management for approval. Common work activities carried out within the PPA and Patrick Operations site consist of: Loading and unloading operations (e.g. cranes, forklifts, marine loading arm s, hoses); High risk heavy vehicle / mobile plant movements; Escorted wide and over length loads; Light vehicle movements (e.g. sedans, 4WD s, minivans); General workplace pedestrian movements; Hauled loads (trailers); Vehicle parking; Pedestrian movements in operational areas; Temporary works involving additional vehicle / mobile plant activity Managers and Supervisors have an obligation to ensure that all such plans and procedures are implemented as required and regularly reviewed. During an onsite emergency, all personnel at all levels will strictly follow the directions of their supervisors and the structure outlined in the management documents. 7.2 Site Access Mobile plant and vehicles (heavy / light) enter and exit the PPA site via the main security gate on MOF Road (refer Appendix 2). 7.3 Steep Road Gradient MOF Road has a very steep gradient (approximately 8%) presenting a potential hazard for traffic operations within the PPA site. A vehicle arrestor bed has been installed on the left hand side of MOF Road as a precautionary measure (refer Appendix 2). 8
7.4 Speed Limits Like any other public road, speed restrictions shall apply to all mobile plant and vehicles (heavy / light) using the roadways and parking facilities at the PPA site. All speed limits are clearly signposted. The Traffic Management Site Map (Appendix 2) illustrates speed limits applying to the following areas: I. 10km/hour Dampier Cargo Wharf (including entry bridge) Dampier Floating Dock Wharf Services Area Light vehicle parking areas II. III. 15km/hour Patrick Office Area Patrick Laydown Area 20km/hour MOF Road Vitenbergs Drive 7.5 Traffic Permits The PPA permit procedure ensures work with the potential to impact traffic is conducted in accordance with all relevant legislature, industry standards, contract agreements and relevant PPA requirements. Traffic permits must be utilised for all works conducted within 3 meters of a road requiring: a) Decreased speed limits; b) The use of safety barriers; or c) The potential to impact traffic flow. If required traffic permits must be arranged in advance of the work activity commencing by the permit requestor in consultation with the Patrick Operations Manager (or site contact), PPA Wharf Manager or the PPA Health & Safety Manager. 7.6 Escort Vehicles Escort vehicles are required for long, wide or large non routine loads. The escort vehicles are to be fitted with clearly visible signage stating words such as wide load and long load. The escort vehicle shall; Be assigned at the front gate upon entry, as determined by the relevant Manager Deemed quarantine compliant. (Where applicable) Have head lights on. Warning lights flashing on. Amber roof beacon activated. 7.7 Exclusion Zones / Restricted Areas Patrick will identify vehicle or pedestrian exclusion zones in their Traffic Control Plan and advise this at the Shift Coordinator / Team Leader meeting of the changes. Exclusion Zones shall be clearly identified by barricading and signage and any designated Safe Stand Down Zones as required. Exclusion zones shall take into account swing and loading radius of machines and any excavations. 9
7.8 Barricading & Signage The barricading and signage shall as a minimum be in accordance with PPA Health and Safety standards however Patrick intend to have all signage and barricading to be in accordance with AS 1319-1994 and AS 1216 Class Labels for Dangerous Goods. All signage shall: Give clear direction. Be visible and not obscured. Be maintained. Be reviewed regularly for relevance. Flashing lights will be placed to warn drivers of any hazards present at night or in poor visibility. General risks to traffic such as unreinforced drain grates or similar fall risks for mobile plant and vehicles throughout the site must be identified and addressed. Shift Coordinators shall identify these in their area as a hazard and hard barricade with an information sign, until rectified. Contractors shall utilise barricading and signage as part of the mobile equipment and personnel separation controls. Traffic Hazard lights shall be placed on barricading where a hazard may not be easily visible during low light conditions. When vehicle, mobile plant or equipment pose a foreseeable risk to pedestrians or other workers, Patrick personnel shall install and maintain barricading and signage to provide protection for vehicles and pedestrians. Where barricading is needed to remain erected at night it requires reflective tape. Reflective signs shall be erected to give advance warning to vehicle traffic where required. Flashing lights shall be installed on roadways to highlight barricading to traffic except in operational areas. 7.9 Traffic Controller The Traffic Controller shall be a person who is able to perform the task. That is, the person shall: Be assigned primarily to Traffic Controller duties not specific Plant Spotter duties. Be competent to understand the work and not be new to site.
