Your work will include supporting the consultation and legal processes required for Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs and TTROs), as well as assisting with the delivery of road safety projects.
The role requires a good understanding of traffic management principles, road safety, and national highway design standards. You will need to be confident in analysing data, using CAD and GIS-based software, and providing technical advice to colleagues and stakeholders. Strong communication skills, the ability to manage workloads to tight deadlines, and a proactive, flexible approach are all key to success in this role.
This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a forward-thinking council that is committed to improving road safety and transport infrastructure. You will be joining a supportive team with a shared goal of delivering high-quality, community-focused projects. The role offers the chance to work on a wide range of schemes, from local safety improvements to major infrastructure projects.
