TMO Operative Ranks Expand

A further 5x trained LANTRA Traffic Management operatives had joined our ever expanding ranks today.

These operatives will be covering our 12D works across Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, The Midlands, Essex & London and will help our existing staffing levels to maintain the high class levels of TM that our clients have become accustomed to.

One of our three crews working on the Norfolk surface dressing works is in its final few weeks of work.

The 4 man crew spearheaded by Dan Williamson has covered 100’s of miles of Norfolk roads over the past 2 months and it now enters the final 3 weeks, on time and having received positive feedback on the efficiency and quality of their traffic management works.

Audit season is upon us again at TMO with BSI undertaking our recertification for our Quality, Environmental and Health & Safety for 2024/2025.

We have been busy managing and improving our integrated systems all year round and we welcome the auditors into the business and embrace and opportunities for improvements that they can give us. Our integrated management system is at the heart of our traffic management business and the data that we capture and monitor allow us to make TMO a better place, whether that be turning up on time to planned works, emergency works and manual controls, monitoring our traffic light breakdowns, the accuracy of our CAD plans, our weekly van idle times, our recycling performance or our accident and absence stats, the system has been crafted to provide quality information that key decisions can be made from.

Last week saw the arrival of 10x new Ford Transit drop side tail lift flatbeds which we be distributed amongst our Traffic Management operatives across East Anglia and the East Midlands.

The latest batch of vehicles is yet another commitment to keeping our staff driving around in safe, compliant and smart looking works vehicles to ensure that we are keeping ahead of the competition.

Chris Pearson one of our March ’23 trainees has successfully completed the TMO Highways training programme and is now signed off.

Chris has become the first of his class to pass all 6 of his sign off audits, complete his LANTRA T1/T2 classroom and then go on to successfully get signed off on his live site assessments.

Darren Bailey our lead surveyor / auditor has overseen Chris’ audits and we quick to praise the desire to learn and passion for perfection that Chris possesses.

It only took one meeting with Chris to see that he possessed the exact qualities that we are looking for here at TMO. He was personable, hard working and was hungry to succeed. It was a real pleasure watching him develop and each time I went out to sign him off it was clear that he had picked up the TMO way very fast. He will go on to be a very good operative here at TMO, hopefully for a very long time.

Chris is one of 15 new trainees we have taken on at TMO Highways in 2023. These trainees are expanding our ever growing team of traffic management operatives across East Anglia and London. We have been blessed with the 2023 crop and others are just behind Chris in terms of their sign-off progress. With the upcoming opening of the St Neots depot we will continue to blend experienced operatives alongside new trainees to help service our clients needs.
