3 1. PURPOSE This Traffic Management Standard specifies IGO s standards for the management of roads, the movement of mobile equipment, and pedestrian management at the IGO operating mine sites and construction projects. 2. SCOPE This Standard shall apply to all IGO managed mine sites and construction projects. This document also addresses the requirements of the Mobile equipment on mines high impact function (HIF) audit, Part 1 Traffic management 2011, August RESPONSIBILITIES DEFINED BY THIS PLAN This standard defines the specific responsibilities of those who manage, operate and interact with vehicle and mobile plant on the IGO mine and projects sites, and those who manage roads on the IGO mine and projects sites. 3.1 Areas of management responsibility All IGO mine and project sites must have established Areas of Management Responsibility defined in accordance with IGO GSS36 - Operational Areas of Management Responsibility by the site s Registered Manager. Department Managers for each given area of management responsibility shall be responsible for the safe operation of activities within that area in accord with this Traffic Management Standard, and their Area Specific Traffic Management Plan where they exist. Area Specific Traffic Management Plans shall be developed, as determined by site management, for the following areas: Open Pit Underground Ore processing TSF 4. PEDESTRIAN MANAGEMENT 4.1 General principles Pedestrians must give way to all vehicles and mobile plant, except on Defined Pedestrian Walkways. Where present, pedestrians must use Defined Pedestrian Walkways. High visibility clothing must be worn by all persons on the IGO site in accord with IGO GSS2 - Personal Protective Equipment and Clothing. Parking in the mining areas is such that interaction between heavy vehicles and light vehicles/pedestrians is avoided. Version 1 Uncontrolled document when Printed 3 of 18

4 4.2 Defined Pedestrian Walkways A Defined Pedestrian Walkway is a formed footpath or an otherwise defined and signposted route for use by pedestrians. Department Managers or their delegates shall determine the need or otherwise for Defined Pedestrian Walkways based on a documented risk assessment. However, as general guidance, Defined Pedestrian Walkways shall be established in areas where there is frequent pedestrian and vehicle or mobile plant interaction. Pedestrian walkways must be provided at all vehicle parking areas. As far as is practical, Defined Pedestrian Walkways shall: Be a suitable width, well drained, and have a flat surface so as to enable the safe passage of pedestrians Be physically segregated from trafficked area with barriers or windrows. Signposted or otherwise marked to define their extent. 4.3 Limiting pedestrian access to given areas From time to time, the Department Managers or their delegates may elect to designate Pedestrian No-Access Areas. These areas shall be managed in accord with IGO GSS7- Barricades, Barriers and Signage. From time to time, the Department Managers or their delegates may elect to restrict pedestrian access to given areas. These areas shall be managed in accord with IGO GSS7- Barricades, Barriers and Signage. 4.4 Pedestrians working in high traffic areas A JSEA shall be completed whenever pedestrians are to work in high traffic flow areas (Refer to IGO GSS3 - Personal Risk Management: Take 5 & JSEAs). Specific consideration must be given to lighting and safe areas of egress. As a general principle, pedestrians working for extended periods within high traffic flow areas shall carry a radio as per Section 5.11 Communications. 5. VEHICLE OPERATOR MANAGEMENT It is incumbent on all persons operating vehicles and mobile plant on all IGO sites to understand the IGO Traffic Management Standard. Only authorised persons may operate vehicles and mobile plant on the IGO Site 1. There are two types of authorisation to operate vehicles and mobile plant on the IGO site. They are: (a) (b) Light Vehicle Use Authorisation, and Controlled Vehicle and Mobile Plant Authorisation. 5.1 Light Vehicle Use Authorisation A person shall be automatically deemed competent to have a General Light Vehicle Use Authorisation given: 1 The operation of any vehicle, item of plant or mobile equipment requires approval from your supervisor. Where a vehicle, item of plant or mobile equipment is managed by someone other than your supervisor, you need their approval as well as your supervisor s Version 1 Uncontrolled document when Printed 4 of 18

5 They have completed a general site induction They hold a current manual (C Class) drivers Licence Controlled Vehicle and Mobile Plant Authorisation. A controlled vehicle is defined as any vehicle other than a Light Vehicle. Controlled Vehicles include all mobile plant inclusive of elevated work platforms. A person shall only be authorised to operate a vehicle other than a Light Vehicle given: They have completed a general site induction They hold a current Drivers Licence relevant to the class of vehicle to be operated The hold other statutory licences as may be required for a specific type of vehicle or mobile plant, and They hold a permit authorizing their use of Controlled Vehicle ( Controlled Vehicle Permit ). Evidence of authorization to operate a controlled vehicle takes the form of a Controlled Vehicle Permit. A person must complete a competency assessment, or hold the requisite statutory licence, prior to being issued a Controlled Vehicle Permit. A person operating a Controlled Vehicle must carry their Controlled Vehicle Permit on their person whilst operating that vehicle. Failure to carry a Controlled Vehicle Permit on one s person whilst operating a controlled vehicle shall be regarded as a failure to follow a lawful instruction and may result in disciplinary action. Operating a controlled vehicle without a Controlled Vehicle Permit shall be regarded as a failure to follow a lawful instruction and will result in disciplinary action. 5.3 Buses The following rules apply An authorised person may operate a mini bus with up to 14 seats including the driver following completion of the Bus competency assessment An authorised person may operate a Coaster bus (or similar) with up to 24 seats including the driver provided they have a LR class license and have completed the Bus competency assessment An authorised person may operate a Bus with 25 seats or more including the driver provided they have a HR class license with F class extension and have completed the Bus competency assessment 2 Note: In the case where a person has his/her driver s licence suspended for any reason, the General Manager may, upon application in writing, allow that person to drive under specified circumstances. Loss of licence must be reported to the relevant supervisor and the Training department Version 1 Uncontrolled document when Printed 5 of 18
