IPV and Incursions Working Group

Introduction

The continued exposure of our road workers to road users when implementing or working within Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) that is either static or mobile continues to be one of the biggest health and safety hazards in our industry. Across some of the key suppliers to Highways England, there are often up to two Impact Protection Vehicle (IPV) strikes per month, and several TTM incursions (intentional or unintentional) occur daily. The most significant incidents have tragically resulted in fatalities, life changing injuries and significant mental health effects.
The root cause of these incidents includes insufficient consideration of risk to the road worker during TTM design (e.g. to eliminate the road user / worker interface), inadequate measures to prevent incursions, poor quality / inaccurate information about known incident hotspots, lack of consistency of safe working practices across the industry and inadequate / inconsistent control measures on site.
