What You’ll Learn:

In this course, you will cover a wide range of essential topics, including:

  • Understanding the LTMO role and its core responsibilities
  • Implementing health and safety practices in the workplace
  • Familiarity with the working environment and general requirements
  • Using sector scheme documents and reference materials

Who Should Attend?

This course is highly recommended for individuals whose employers require them to work on motorways or high-speed dual carriageways as a Lead Traffic Management Operative. Moreover, it is suitable for those working on standard schemes where temporary road markings are NOT necessary, as well as those involved in works with relaxations.

Course Benefits:

Upon successful completion, you will:

  • Gain a clear understanding of the typical roles and responsibilities of an LTMO
  • Become familiar with the application of relaxation closures as per Chapter 8 requirements
  • Learn and apply industry-safe working practices
  • Pass the end-of-course test with a minimum score of 75%

Additional Information:

It’s important to note that registration as an NHSS12B LTMO will only become effective once the NHSS12AB General Operative logbook has been completed, and the one-day NHSS12AB General Operative course certificate remains valid. However, if you’re looking for a certificate as proof of training only, there are no prerequisites. The certificate is valid for two years.
