Yard Setup, Traffic Management & Public Access

Setting up and running the supplies yard - layout and segregation of plant, vehicles and pedestrians, traffic management, customer access control, surfaces, housekeeping and security.

Objective

Keep every person separated from moving plant - marked walkways and customer areas, controlled traffic flow, signed speed limits, sound surfaces and a secured yard after hours.

When you'd use this SWMS

If yard setup, traffic management & public access is part of your job, the builder or head contractor will usually want a SWMS for it before you start on site. This one's editable in Word. Add your company and site details, check the hazards and controls against the actual job, and get your crew to sign on before work starts.
