Flagger Training
|
Flaggers are the most important members of your
construction or maintenance crew. In order to protect your work
zones, every flagger on a public highway is required to know proper
flagging procedures and use appropriate equipment. Chapter 6E of the
Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) contains all of
the flagger requirements and recommendations.
The Technology Transfer Center has several dedicated instructors that will come to
your location and train your employees in proper procedures. A
minimum of 25 people is required to offer this training. If you do
not have this many employees, work with other local agencies in your
area to organize a class or attend a open enrollment class.
This training is appropriate for any local agency employee who may
perform as a flagger in emergency or non-emergency situations. This
includes highway department employees (worker and supervisors),
public utility employees, police officers and firemen (volunteer and
full-time).
If you would like to schedule a class in your area, please fill out
