Unnecessary and redundant Worksites – Q3 2025

This section looks at how we’re working to make our roads safer and more efficient by tackling unnecessary or redundant worksites!

What does “redundant” mean?

Redundant worksites are places where Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) is set up, but there’s no risk present. This can cause frustration for road users and lead to inefficiencies.
On the flip side, there are also unprotected risk sites—places where there’s a risk, but no TTM has been put in place. Both situations are important to address for safety and public trust.

Proactive Redundant TTM Collection Update

Directionz Ltd launched its proactive collection of redundant TTM equipment across Auckland in late March. The company is gradually surveying the Auckland network to identify and retrieve obsolete TTM gear. This project is designed to improve both the efficiency and cleanliness of the network. Industry partners are encouraged to stay engaged, support this initiative, and respond when asked to remove designated items from their storage facilities.

As of 21st October 2025, a total of 15,046 items have been cleared from the network, while 5,477 exceptions have been noted and left in place. Further updates will be shared in the next newsletter.

How did we do this quarter?

Here’s a summary of TTM site inspection data for the Auckland Transport road network, including both redundant worksites and unprotected risk sites. The data aligns with Road Efficiency Group Te Ringa Maimoa’s (REG) reporting requirements.:

Period	Total TTM Inspections	Unnecessary / Redundant Worksites	Risk Present, No TTM	Customer Reports / Complaints
2024 Q4 (Jan–Dec)	1,929	38	64	2,460
2025 Q1 (Jan–Mar)	440	15	23	592
2025 Q2 (Apr–Jun)	462	23	20	269
2025 Q3 (Jul–Aug)	691	24	25	362

Key points:

There was a noticeable decrease in the percentage of redundant sites this quarter compared to the previous quarter, although it’s similar to the first quarter of the year.
Addressing both redundant and unprotected sites helps us reduce unnecessary costs, improve safety, and respond to community concerns.

What’s next?

Auckland Transport is committed to making our roads safer, more efficient, and better for everyone. Here’s what’s on the horizon:

Reducing unnecessary costs: By identifying and removing redundant worksites, we can save resources and focus efforts where they’re truly needed.
Improving safety outcomes: Ensuring that TTM is only used where there’s genuine risk helps protect both road users and workers.
Responding to community concerns: We’re listening to feedback from the public and stakeholders and using it to guide improvements.
Supporting national TTM improvement goals: Our work aligns with broader industry efforts to raise standards and share best practices.
Ongoing monitoring and collaboration: We’ll keep tracking trends, working closely with contractors, and refining our processes to make sure TTM is always effective and justified.
Encouraging proactive reporting: We invite everyone—contractors, staff, and the public—to report unnecessary or missing TTM so we can address issues quickly.

Together, these steps will help us build a safer, more efficient road network for all. If you have ideas or want to get involved in these improvements, we’d love to hear from you

KPI’s and Reported crashes at worksites - Q3 2025

In this section, we provide a snapshot of key performance indicators and reported crash data at worksites, helping to track safety and compliance across the road network.

Key Performance Indicators

We report monthly on key performance indicators (KPIs) to track compliance and performance in Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) across the network. One main KPI is the percentage of Satisfactory TTM Sites.

A site is considered satisfactory if it receives a rating of High Standard, Acceptable, or Needs Improvement. This helps ensure we consistently measure site quality.

The table below shows the monthly trend for the percentage of Satisfactory TTM Sites.

Data can be provided to Principal, Main Contractor, or TTM organisations on request. If you’d like more detailed data on your own organisation, just ask!

Reported Crashes at Work Sites

Worksite incidents are identified through various sources, including contractor self-reports, customer feedback, media coverage, police reports, and other informal channels.

Please note that trend analysis is currently limited due to known underreporting. However, we’ve seen a significant improvement in the number of self-initiated reports over the past year—thank you, and let’s keep them coming!

The graph below presents reported crashes at work sites.

Crash report data plays a vital role in helping us identify areas for improvement across the industry. If you have information about a crash at a work site, please report it via TTM.Crash@at.govt.nz.
