How do you manage your traffic volume during pipeline construction?
During construction, residents can expect to see an increase in traffic—heavy-haul vehicles, buses and crew trucks—on highways, secondary highways and rural township roads. To manage traffic volume and ensure public and worker safety, we make sure to:
- Develop a traffic accommodation plan to minimize impacts to community residents;
- Move heavy equipment across roads during off-peak hours;
- Bus crews to and from the construction site where possible:
- Actively communicate with the local community on any disruptions to normal traffic patterns;
- Pay strict adherence to mandated noise limits;
- Install and maintain proper signage at work sites, road and temporary access crossings;
- Build protective structures to prevent damage to road surfaces and facilitate equipment and truck crossings.
