    The TTM Transformation Programme team recently conducted knowledge sessions on NZGTTM at Customer Central. NZGTTM is a new guide to Temporary Traffic Management developed by Waka Kotahi that will replace CoPTTM in the next two years. This guide will replace CoPTTM's prescriptive set of rules with a more flexible set of guidelines that prioritizes planning and risk management. This is a significant change in the practice of TTM in New Zealand.

    To ensure a smooth transition for AT, new systems and processes are being developed. The first step is to provide our teams with a solid understanding of NZGTTM. To achieve this, we partnered with Dave Tilton from Parallax to deliver insightful knowledge sessions. These sessions covered the rationale behind the transition from CoPTTM to NZGTTM, explored the differences between NZGTTM and CoPTTM, and discussed the changing landscape. During the workshop, teams learned about the contrast between a compliance-based TTM approach and a risk-based approach. The discussion allowed for a better understanding of how TTM might look in New Zealand over the next few years and the potential impact.

    The sessions have been insightful and engaging, receiving great feedback. The TTM Transformation team will continue to engage with AT teams to develop other specialized knowledge sessions that will help AT transition to the risk-based approach.
