Job description

Position Summary:
The Traffic Control Supervisor (TCS) supports the operations of a pipe crew by planning, implementing, and monitoring traffic control systems around excavation, trenching, and utility installation work zones. This role ensures the safety of the crew, motorists, and pedestrians while maintaining proper traffic flow near active pipe installation sites. The TCS works closely with the pipe crew foreman to adjust traffic setups according to trench locations, equipment movement, and daily production needs.

Key Responsibilities:
• Create, review, and execute traffic control plans that align with pipe crew activities, including open trenches, excavation zones, and utility crossings.
• Set up, monitor, and maintain traffic control devices such as cones, barricades, signs, message boards, and detour routes specific to underground utility installation.
• Coordinate with the pipe crew foreman to adjust traffic setups as trenching progresses or as equipment such as excavators, loaders, or pipe trucks move throughout the work zone.
• Ensure all traffic control layouts meet MUTCD standards and comply with local and state regulations.
• Supervise and guide any flaggers or traffic control personnel assigned to the pipe crew.
• Monitor work areas for hazards, changes in traffic conditions, or unexpected risks near active pipe installation zones.
• Maintain daily reports, including setup times, equipment placement, weather conditions, and any incidents or modifications to the plan.
• Respond quickly to emergencies, utility conflicts, or changes in crew workflow that affect traffic flow and worker safety.
• Work closely with inspectors, safety officers, and project management to ensure job-site compliance and safe excavation environments.
• Assist with tailgate meetings on traffic-related safety topics and help train new crew members on work-zone awareness.

Qualifications:
• Valid Traffic Control Supervisor certification (state-specific TCS or equivalent).
• Experience in roadway construction, underground utilities, or pipe-laying operations preferred.
• Strong understanding of MUTCD requirements and safe work-zone practices.
• Ability to adapt traffic setups to moving trench lines and heavy equipment operations.
• Strong communication and leadership skills with the ability to direct flaggers and interact with the public when needed.
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, utility plans, and traffic control layouts.
• Physical ability to work on active construction sites, lift traffic control equipment, and work outdoors in variable weather conditions.
