Appendix 1 Traffic Hazard Checklist
Traffic management hazards generally come from the interaction between vehicles and pedestrians. This checklist can
assist in the identification of traffic management hazards. Use of this checklist is not mandatory, provided another means
to identify traffic hazards is adopted.

CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING Yes No Comments / Action

Have you checked the floor plan of your workplace?

Sketching the layout of the workplace can also help.
Have you asked your workers, pedestrians and visiting
drivers about traffic management problems they encounter
at your workplace?
Have you reviewed your incident and injury records
including near misses?
Is there security footage that can be reviewed to identify areas
where pedestrians and vehicles interact?
Which vehicle types including powered mobile
plant use the same area as pedestrians?
How do vehicles, delivery drivers and pedestrians move
around the area?
 Are they separated?
 Are there physical barriers to stop them interacting?
Note: It can be difficult to see pedestrians when plant is
reversing, moving at speed or has a load.
Do vehicles queue in a way that could create risks to
pedestrians, for example crossing walkways or obstructing
people’s view of vehicles?
Are routes wide enough to separate vehicles and pedestrians?

How often and where do vehicles and pedestrians interact?

 Can work be scheduled to minimise interaction e.g.
loading and unloading at night, before businesses
open or when people leave the work area e.g. during
meal breaks for manufacturing process lines?
Are activities done close to public areas?

When are traffic volumes higher e.g. pick-up and delivery

times and vehicles arriving and leaving?
 Are there certain times when there are more people
moving around the workplace e.g. break times and
the ends of shifts?
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING Yes No Comments / Action

Where are potential collision locations? For example:

 intersections and bottleneck areas around driveways
and entrances
 ‘blind’ or convex corners
 where vehicles work close to other vehicles or
pedestrians
 lack of disabled access to and within a workplace
e.g. where a person in a wheelchair shares a ramp
used by forklifts.
Are workers and visitors safe from vehicles when hitching
and unhitching trailers, carrying out maintenance,
getting on and off vehicles and securing loads?
Is contact with stationary objects possible? For example,
overhead structures, stationary plant or stored or discarded
items.
Are there blind spots at the workplace caused by stationary
equipment and vehicles and other areas of poor visibility or
low lighting levels? Consider how well the driver can see
when their vehicle is moving.
What other hazards could arise when routing pedestrians,
for example noise, emissions or falling objects?
What impact does the physical environment have on health
and safety e.g.:
 road surfaces
 poor drainage and flooding
 lighting levels and visibility, and
 shade and light glare at different times of day?
Are pedestrian routes designed so pedestrians will not take
short cuts?
Are workers and visitors aware of the hazards and what
procedures are in place to manage risks e.g. site
induction training?
Are contractors and new people to the site supervised?
