Safety at Street Works and Road Works - A Code of Practice

The Traffic Signs Manual :
  • Chapter 5 – Road markings (2003)
  • Chapter 7 – The Design of Traffic Signs (2013)
  • Chapter 8 - Road works and temporary situations (2009) (Part 1 and Part 2)
Top quality, high standards, ease of use, consistency and speed together with creative flexibility is the key to your success.
At the heart of the CONE system is a vast range of pre-drawn schematic diagrams that adhere to and greatly expand upon the standard requirements of Chapter 8.

Multi-purpose, the CONE schematics cover all aspects of temporary traffic management and have many uses such as basic reference, indicative drawings, pre-tender proposals and when schemes are required for dual carriageways they represent the quickest and most convenient method of producing a TM plan.

CONE schematics are categorised into libraries operated by easy to use tools and include:

Roads and Junctions
Single Carriageways
Dual Carriageways
Road Closures
Standard Detail Drawings
All the signs you will need to create traffic control plans, lane closures, route diversion schemes or any other type of temporary road traffic diagram.
