Overview

The City & Guilds Streetworks Excavation & Reinstatement (6156) Unit 222 is designed for minimising inconvenience during the course of street works, and maintaining a safe environment for the general public, pedestrians and motor vehicles is a key part of managing street works. In this course, we will cover all the essentials candidates need to know to set out advance signing, safety zones and pedestrian walkways. The course will require delegates to demonstrate positioning, testing, adjusting, commissioning and decommissioning temporarily traffic signals, as well as producing plans of an intended site to show positions of signs and traffic signals. The course culminates with a questionnaire to demonstrate knowledge of the subject.
