Traffic Control & Permitting: questions
When work is in or near a road, traffic control keeps drivers, walkers and the crew safe and keeps traffic moving around the work zone.
Yes. We offer traffic control and permitting support as part of planning a bore. Tell us the agency or owner involved when you request a bid.
Share the street or location, whether lanes or sidewalks are affected, any work-hour limits, and the permit requirements you already know about.
Usually. A bore passes under the road, so there is no open trench across the lanes, and traffic can often keep moving while the work runs underneath.
