How has traffic management training changed?

Traffic management training has changed to reflect the updated codes of practice under the Road Management Act. 

The change involves the adoption of the National Training Framework (NTF) for temporary traffic management, supported by localised content.

Austroads has published a list of approved training providers (ATP) to indicate which RTOs are offering courses under the new NTF.

When did traffic management training change?

The NTF was adopted in Victoria from 1 December 2023.

  • The new Traffic Controller (TC) and Traffic Management Implementer (TMI) training became mandatory on 1 March 2024.
  • The new Traffic Management Design (TMD) training became mandatory on 10 July 2024.

Qualifications received under the previous TC, TMI and TMD courses will continue to be recognised until they expire or three years from date of issue or before 1 March 2027 (whichever is earliest).
