Transport Management Plans (TMPs)
A TMP is a comprehensive document that describes how an OSOM movement will be safely undertaken in NSW. This document is structured to enable you to record your plans, procedures and other operational activities that will be required in order to safely transport an OSOM movement in NSW.
Due to the changing nature of the road environment, increasing traffic levels and increasing demand for OSOM movements there is need to closely manage the risk and journey disruptions caused by OSOM movements. To provide the necessary increased management of ‘High Risk’ OSOM movements, the NSW government has introduced the OSOM TMP.
The TMP provides a comprehensive planning and execution focus for ‘High Risk’ OSOM movements to ensure that these movements are carried out in a safe and responsible manner with reduced impact on other road users and road infrastructure.
