Why This Training Matters

Traffic Flaggers Play a Critical Role
in Work Zone Safety

A traffic flagger is often the first line of protection between moving traffic and the workers inside a work zone. That role requires more than holding a stop/slow paddle — it requires alertness, authority, proper signaling, and a clear understanding of standard traffic control practices.

Protect Project Personnel

Help create safer work zones by controlling traffic flow and reducing exposure to struck-by hazards.

Direct the Public Safely

Give safe, polite, and authoritative directions to drivers seeking passage through the work area.

Meet Certification Requirements

Ensure workers have the training and documentation needed to perform flagging duties safely and correctly.

Support Work Zone Compliance

Build confidence that your flaggers understand standard procedures, signals, and control references.
