Description

This interactive course with practical applications was designed to guide students in using the FDOT standards and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) through instruction, audio and visual presentation, and real-world type examples to develop safe and efficient traffic control plans. 

This course was designed for individuals actively involved in flagging during an active temporary traffic control operating in a work zone. 

This course begins by introducing the fundamental principles of a TTC. Students will learn to maintain safe movement of all public right-of-way users by applying local state, and federal policy and manuals. The course will guide students through general terms and procedures used in work zones, different types of temporary traffic control devices, and the intended function and the appropriate use of each device while defining the elements that make up temporary traffic control zones. 

Participants learn to read and interpret plans and specifications and implement them in the field as well as how to design and implement temporary traffic control plans to make the project as safe as possible for fellow workers, motorists, and pedestrians.

• The course begins by introducing the fundamental principles of a TTC. Students will learn to maintain safe movement of all public right-of-way users by applying local, state, and federal policy and manuals. The course will guide students through general terms and procedures used in work zones, different types of temporary traffic control devices, and the intended function and the appropriate use of each device while defining the elements that make up temporary traffic control zones.
• On day two, students will have the opportunity to apply these principles to identify possible solutions for maintaining safe movement of traffic, pedestrians, transit operations, and access to property and utilities when our work zone disrupts the normal function of a roadway. Following the course instruction, students will demonstrate flagging procedures and complete an online exam.
• To successfully complete the course, students must demonstrate proper flagging procedures and achieve a minimum score of 70% on the proctored, time-limited (2-hour), final exam. With the Intermediate TTC qualification, students will be able identify and apply the appropriate FDOT standard plan index to standard roadways by implementing appropriate work zone setup, maintenance, inspection, and removal.
• The Advanced TTC course includes the placement, maintenance, and the inspection of temporary barriers. Barriers are not covered in the Intermediate section.

5. Certificate and Wallet Card

• After the exam, our team will send your exam responses, evaluation, and attendance record to the MOT/TTC Administrator for grading. Please allow 2-3 weeks for the MOT/TTC Administrator to complete the grading process.
• Students will receive an email with login instructions to see their results.
