answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/09/2023 answer text <p>The role of traffic marshals has been reviewed regularly since their implementation. Over the summer, a thorough review of the current traffic management system, including traffic marshals, was carried out. The review recommended the one-way traffic system remain in place, but also recognised that users of the Estate have become used to the traffic system and that it is now part of “business as usual.” This means that while the risk assessment still recommends traffic mitigations, including traffic marshals, the number of marshals can be reduced. The number will be revised to five operating traffic marshals, plus one supervisor and two relief marshals, down from a previous 11 marshals.</p><p>Aside from the review mentioned above, the traffic management system is reviewed whenever there is a change or incident related to logistics and traffic on the Estate.</p> answering member printed Lord Gardiner of Kimble question first answered 19/09/2023 13:52:14 answering member 4161 label Biography information for Lord Gardiner of Kimble

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/09/2023 answer text <p>A wide range of stakeholders were engaged before the implementation of the one-way traffic management system by Strategic Estates Construction Management Team. The key stakeholder groups were Parliamentary Safety Assurance Board (PSAB) and the Logistics Steering Group, a sub-group of PSAB. Concerns for stakeholders were the management of interface between pedestrians and traffic, the need to accommodate quick changes to traffic management due to events or incidents, and that Police are there for security and not to direct traffic. As such, traffic marshals were identified as best practice to meet the needs of the Estate. The traffic management solution, including use of traffic marshals, was approved by PSAB and the Logistics Steering Group prior to implementation.</p> answering member printed Lord Gardiner of Kimble question first answered 19/09/2023 14:19:16 answering member 4161 label Biography information for Lord Gardiner of Kimble
