Developing an accurate traffic control plan is not just a task, but a crucial responsibility that directly impacts the safety of your participants and volunteers. It ensures that all traffic control devices are placed in accordance with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), thereby preventing potential hazards. The correct placement of barricades by your chosen contractor, such as Action Safety Supply, a pre-qualified contractor in Oklahoma City, who is well-versed in these guidelines, is a key factor in this process.
Here are some additional requirements that Oklahoma City will require in your traffic control plan:

• Same day barricade pickup is required in districts with high pedestrian traffic. (Downtown, Midtown, Auto Alley, Bricktown, Film Row, Plaza District, Paseo, etc.)

• Type III barricades are required for all road and lane closures.

• 36” cones or other approved devices, are required when separating traffic from participants on a route.

• As part of your event planning, please remember that sidewalks must remain open as much as possible for public access to your site. This not only respects the rights of the public but also ensures that everyone feels included in your event.

• After your event, it’s crucial that traffic control devices do not block any rights-of-way. This is essential for maintaining smooth traffic flow in the area.
