Survey: Temporary traffic control on private forest roads

Friday 29 May 2026

 
Following a review of reported incidents within the IRIS database and WorkSafe assessments, temporary traffic control on private forest roads has been identified as an area that needs urgent review.

The Best Practice Guidelines for Temporary Traffic Control on Private Forest Roads (BPG) was first published in 2007. FISC has commissioned a full review of this BPG, led by an independent Technical Advisory Group (TAG).

Before the TAG begins its substantive work, we want to hear from the people who have actually used the BPG – forest owners, contractors, operators, and health and safety practitioners. The following survey will help us gather feedback on this topic.

You know where it works, where it falls short, and what has changed in the 18 years since it was written, please share your thoughts with us.

Your responses will directly inform the TAG's decisions. This is your opportunity to shape the revised BPG before it is drafted.

Responses and privacy

The survey is made up of 19 questions and takes 15-20 minutes to complete.

Submissions are due by 5pm, Friday 19 June 2026.

Your responses will be seen only by the programme manager and used solely to inform the TAG's work. Individual responses will not be shared with anyone else. If you are happy to be contacted to discuss your responses further, please indicate in the final survey question.
