Have You Seen the Latest MRWA TGS Updates?
Main Roads WA (MRWA) has recently released updated Traffic Guidance Scheme (TGS) examples, providing clearer direction on how traffic management should be planned and implemented across worksites in Western Australia.
These updates are important for anyone involved in traffic control, project planning, or site supervision, especially for organisations delivering works on or near roads.
To better understand what’s changed, we’ve put together a summary of the key updates introduced in the latest MRWA TGS examples.
Key Changes Summary
The latest MRWA TGS updates introduce several important improvements:
- Expanded scenario coverage
More example layouts for different road types, environments, and work conditions.
- Improved signage clarity
Clearer guidance on sign selection, spacing, and positioning to reduce ambiguity on-site.
- Refined taper and buffer requirements
Updates to taper lengths and safety buffer zones to better reflect real-world conditions.
- Better guidance for complex worksites
Enhanced layouts for intersections, multi-lane roads, and high-traffic areas. - Consistency with current standards
Alignment with updated traffic management practices and compliance expectations.
Why This Matters
Staying up to date with TGS changes is essential to:
- Maintain compliance with MRWA requirements
- Avoid project delays or rework

Even small changes in layout or signage requirements can impact how a job is delivered.
