Connexis Infrastructure ITO has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Connexis Infrastructure ITO in partnership with the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) and the temporary traffic management industry completed a review of the unit standards listed above.
Following an open consultation process, the decision was made to expire the unit standards without replacement as they are no longer fit for purpose.
New unit standards were developed to align with the Code of Practice for Temporary Traffic Management (CoPTTM) and the new NZTA training and competency model. This will ensure time for stakeholders to transition to the new requirements.
