Event scope
Define what the event involves: expected attendance, setup and pack-out times, road closures, parking areas, pedestrian flows, loading zones, emergency access and any alcohol or entertainment that changes crowd behaviour.
Event traffic management planning guide
Event traffic planning should start early because closures, pedestrians, parking, emergency access, resident impacts and RCA timelines often need more detail than organisers expect.
Plain-English explanation
The key points, split into simple blocks so the page is useful without feeling like a wall of text.
Crowd movement
Plan for how people arrive, move around and leave. Crowd behaviour affects crossing points, marshalling, signage and emergency access. Large or alcohol-licensed events usually need more detailed planning.
Road closures
Event closures need the same detour, access, emergency and stakeholder thinking as worksite closures, plus timing that fits setup, the event itself and breakdown. Late submissions are a common reason event permits are delayed.

FAQ
Common questions
Who reviews the TMP or CAR?
The relevant council, RCA or network owner reviews the submission. Our role is to help make the information clearer, more complete and easier to respond to.
What do you need before starting?
Send the work location, scope, dates, site plans or markups, methodology, hours of work, access needs, photos if available, and any RCA comments already received.
Can you work with our on-road crew or traffic management provider?
Yes. Your TMP Designer focuses on the planning, documentation and drawing support around the job. If your project also needs on-road setup, equipment or training, we can keep the TMP, CAR/WAP and drawing information aligned while those field services are arranged with the right provider.
