Background

Engineers within the Road Safety Engineering Unit (RSEU) of DGH have been concerned for some

time about the lack of road safety at roadwork sites on national highways in Indonesia. During their

blackspot and audit inspections they have come across many roadwork sites with unsafe practices

being carried out.

Earlier this year, similar concerns were expressed by officers of the AusAID funded Eastern Indonesia

National Road Improvement Project (EINRIP) Management Unit, especially about safety at EINRIP

sites. After discussions between EINRIP and IndII officials about what may be the cause of such poor

safety awareness at worksites across Indonesia, it was agreed that one of the factors is a low level of

understanding of how to safely sign and delineate a roadwork site.

The crash risk at a roadwork site is about three times the crash risk at any other section of a

highway. In other words, work sites are locations where special attention needs to be paid to road

safety. This has not been happening in Indonesia.

AusAID officials have also expressed concerns for safety at roadwork sites. In particular they are

concerned for safety at roadworks on Tohpati-Kusamba Road (Bali) which is being duplicated under

EINRIP (EBL-01). The RSEU carried out an independent road safety audit of EBL-01 and its report was

highly critical of safety during the roadwork. These concerns were reinforced more recently by the

report of the Technical and Financial Auditor of EINRIP. AusAID responded to these reports by

directing that action take place to improve this situation.

Consequently it was decided that IndII would fund two 2-day training workshops that would focus on

raising the technical knowledge of contractors and consultants working on EINRIP projects. The

workshops were on road safety at roadwork sites.

Preparation for the Workshops

It was necessary to hold two workshops due to the high number of EINRIP consultants, contractors

and traffic safety coordinators who needed to undergo this training. Each workshop was limited to

30 people for maximum practical instruction, and Balai engineers were invited to attend.

The two locations where this could best be demonstrated were the Tohpati Kusamba Road (where

the roadworks are on-going and are within close proximity to a suitable workshop location) and ESS-

02 (which is about three hours drive from Makassar).

These two workshops were designed to be practical, involving a site visit during which existing road

safety problems could be identified and useful low cost safety improvements could be highlighted. A

program for the workshops was prepared and is attached.

A field guide for traffic control at roadworks was prepared by the RSEU. A copy was presented to

each attendee at the workshops. This field guide formed the basis for the two workshops, and

provided a reference for consultants and contractors in good road safety practice. It was introduced

as the booklet to be used for safety at EINRIP (and other) roadwork sites.

IndII paid for travel expenses for the presentation team, the cost for the workshops including

catering plus a bus for the site visits. IndII also paid for the costs of preparing the diagrams for the

field guide as well as for the preparation of “roadwork games” for both workshops.

The Roadwork Games

The RSEU had seen and used a simple “game” that involved a basic drawing of a generic road layout

together with some small signs that could be placed along the road, simulating a work site. The RSEU

took this concept further by enlarging six EINRIP site drawings and preparing hundreds of small signs

and bollards to be used by attendees at the workshops. The drawings were so large that they had to

be placed on the floor of the workshop venue, and participants were asked to prepare safe and

efficient traffic management layouts for each location.

For example, one site was a large intersection, one involved a lane drop, one involved a narrowing

but no lane drop and another was close to a bridge. The “games” proved to be very informational

and they helped attendees to quickly realise the many technical issues involved in safety signing at

work sites.

In short, the RSEU put much effort into the preparation of these “games”. The success of the

workshops was largely due to the “games” and the enthusiasm they generated.

Conclusion

1. A total of some 60 contractors, consultants and balai engineers attended the two 2-day

workshops on “Road Safety at Roadwork Sites” held at the Sanur Paradise Hotel in Bali and

the Clarion Hotel, Makassar.

2. Both workshops were rated very highly by those attending – both for technical content and

for presentation and interest. The average response was about 80-85 percent. The complete

results of the evaluation are included in this report.

3. There is a clear need for many more similar workshops. They should become a regular part

of the RSEU /DGH/IndII training program.

4. The “games” were highly successful, and should be continued at all future workshops.

5. The site inspections were important to highlight the present deficiencies.

Feedback From Denpasar Workshop Mention two things that you learn and you can use in your work

Implement the Traffic Management and Safety

Use standard signs and place at right locations

Regulatory speed restriction

Always control and maintenance the existing traffic signs

Need adequate budget prepared in BQQ

Low cost treatment for Traffic Management and Safety

Arrange and selection of place or distance Detour

Can check the work of contractors and consultants in the road safety problem What needs to be repaired for the next workshop?

Time discipline and committee preparedness about materials which must be submitted to the participants

Speaker from the police need to be included in the workshop

Detailed calculation about the traffic sign distances, relationship between speed and time.

Better organisation

Preparedness of materials and manuals

Accommodation facilities should be provided

More attention in a seating position according to job position for easier discussion

More time is used for simulation of traffic management planning

Feedback From Makassar workshop Mention two things that you learn and you can use in your work

Implement the Traffic Management and Safety

Use standard signs and place at right locations

Traffic signs will be installed in the location of work

Instruct the contractor to implement traffic management

Better job security

Coordination with relevant stakeholders and socialisation should be more frequent

Need adequate budget prepared in BQQ

Using a good traffic management, ensuring the safety of road users and the general public

Implement the procedures in the field of traffic management and safety

Road safety, the principle of signs, delineation, speed and safety management

To determine the safety program are reported correctly

Traffic control/road safety to be included in each method of work/time statement submitted by the contractor

Socialise into the field staff

Importance of traffic management/ type of signs

Implementation of the making of temporary bridge

More specific material, if necessary socialisation to relevant agencies

13 | P a g e

What needs to be repaired for the next workshop?

Invite as well as socialisation to the Local Transportation Agency of provinces and police can be done in every package

Need to be increased in the case of better performance

Example of the case of traffic management needs to be added

Socialisation program implementation and application implementation

Need a lot of literature supporting workshops

Sharpening the explanation in the contract specifications relating to traffic management safety plan

Workshop materials should be distributed all participants
