CAR, TMP and traffic management support for civil contractors

The volume problem, in your language

A single CAR is easy. Forty a quarter isn't. The pain isn't any one application. It's the compound interest of small failures:

• A MyWorksites application bounced for a wrong date range or a missing TMP, found the day before the crew was due to mobilise.
• A Works Access Permit condition nobody passed to site, so the crew's set up and the STMS is reading conditions off a phone.
• Three different road controlling authorities with three different expectations of what a complete TMP looks like.
• The completion notice that never got filed, which becomes a warranty question two years later when someone digs the same trench.

None of that is engineering. It's admin, and it's exactly the admin we take over.

Standing support: your CAR and TMP desk

For contractors with repeat volume, we work as an extension of your pre-starts, not as a per-job vendor you have to brief from scratch each time.

• We lodge your CARs: prepared and submitted through MyWorksites with the right RCA, the right dates and a complete TMP attached, so applications don't bounce on technicalities.
• TMP design and TTM planning: programme-level scheduling: we map your forward works and schedule TMP design so approvals are in hand before each crew's start date, not chased the week of.
• Multi-RCA management: CCC, Selwyn District Council, Waimakariri District Council and NZTA corridors. You deal with us; we deal with whichever authority owns the road.
• Completion notices and close-out: Work Completion Notices filed when the reinstatement's done, so the two-year warranty clock starts cleanly and there's no loose end on the next CAR over the same ground.

Want to see the process before you hand it over? Our CAR step-by-step guide shows exactly what we do in MyWorksites on your behalf, and our TMP cost guide explains what drives the price of the plan behind each application.

Talk to us about how a standing arrangement would work for your programme: the shape depends on your volume and how far ahead your schedule firms up. We're set up for exactly this kind of repeat work; it's one of the reasons civil contractors sit alongside builders in who we help.

Urgent works response

Water mains burst and faults don't book in advance. When a utility urgent works job lands, the corridor access still has to happen: the rules just shift to the urgent-works provisions. We handle urgent and emergency TMP design and the corridor notifications that go with it, so your crew can get on with the repair and the paperwork keeps pace behind them. The earlier in the call-out you loop us in, the cleaner the paper trail.

When your gear's already committed

Peak season reality: your cones, signs, VMS boards and temporary traffic lights are on someone else's site. Through our traffic management equipment hire we can supply VMS boards, temporary traffic lights, cones, signs, stands and bases: availability depends on timing and what's already booked, so the earlier you flag a gap, the better. And if your own STMS runs the site and you just need the gear, our DIY equipment hire fleet hires lights, boards, TMA trucks and cones without the crew margin.

A working example

For the builders on your jobs

If the hold-up on a site isn't corridor access but consent conditions, RFIs or vehicle crossing sign-off, that's a different desk: ours as well. See what we handle for builders.
