Changes to transition timeframes for existing temporary traffic management qualifications
The Department of State Growth will extend each transition period arrangement by six months to assist the industry, including traffic management companies, contractors, trainers, and State Growth.
This is intended to provide flexibility and sufficient time for all stakeholders to adjust to the new requirements.
This information is outlined in the table below, as it will appear in the revised Tasmanian Guide.
| Last qualification date |
Time until they must complete the NTFTTM* (from 1 Jan 2024)
|
| 2023 |
24 months |
| 2022 |
18 months |
| 2021 |
15 months |
| 2020 and earlier |
12 months |
*These timeframes may change with the requirements of delivering the NTFTTM.
For example:
- An individual who last completed traffic management training in 2023 should book for the equivalent NTFTTM course within 24 months (e.g. before January 2026)
- An individual who last completed traffic management training in 2022 should book for the equivalent NTFTTM course within 18 months (e.g. before July 2025)
- An individual who last completed traffic management training in 2021 should book for the equivalent NTFTTM course within 15 months (e.g. before April 2025)
- An individual who last completed traffic management training in 2020 or earlier should book for the equivalent NTFTTM course within 12 months (e.g. before January 2025)
State Growth has recently committed to reviewing the implementation of the NTFTTM, including transition arrangements, by 1 April 2024 and quarterly after that.
State Roads will facilitate these reviews, and stakeholders will be invited to provide feedback.
