Traffic Control
Certified direction at lane closures, work zones and congested sites — stop sign, light wand, correct PPE.
Overview
What this covers
Traffic control is the one security role where getting it wrong hurts someone immediately. A flagger in the wrong position, without the right equipment, or working to a movement plan they have not been briefed on is a hazard rather than a control.
Praxon traffic personnel work in correct high-visibility equipment with a stop/slow paddle and illuminated wand after dark, and are briefed on the specific movement plan for the site before they take a position. We cover construction lane closures, work zones, event ingress and egress, and sites where the volume simply exceeds what the layout can handle on its own.
