The NRSWA O1 Signing, Lighting and Guarding training course provides essential knowledge for anyone working on or near public highways. Based on the requirements of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991, the course ensures operatives understand how to safely set up and manage temporary traffic control measures. It focuses on protecting both road users and workers by applying correct signage, lighting, and guarding techniques.
During the course, participants learn how to correctly position cones, barriers, and warning signs in accordance with industry guidance such as the Safety at Street Works and Road Works Code of Practice. The training covers different road types and working environments, helping learners understand how to adapt setups for various traffic speeds and site conditions. Emphasis is placed on maintaining clear visibility, ensuring safe pedestrian routes, and minimising disruption.
On completion, operatives gain the skills and awareness needed to carry out their duties safely and in compliance with legal standards. The qualification is widely recognised across the UK and is often a requirement for those involved in street works. Ultimately, NRSWA O1 training helps reduce accidents, improve site safety, and promote best practice across the industry.
