Canberra’s ongoing government infrastructure projects, civil construction activity, utilities works and defence-related developments continue to create demand for qualified traffic controllers throughout the ACT. Traffic control is often required where work affects public roads, pedestrian pathways, cyclists or vehicle movements, making trained and competent workers an important part of maintaining site safety and traffic flow.
This traffic control course Canberra workers rely on combines RIIWHS205E Control Traffic with a Stop/Slow Bat and RIIWHS302E Implement Traffic Management Plans, providing the nationally recognised training commonly required for temporary traffic management (TTM) activities. Participants learn how to safely direct traffic using a stop/slow bat, implement traffic management plans (TMPs), communicate effectively with road users and apply safe traffic control procedures in real-world work environments.
Traffic control work in the ACT falls under the jurisdiction of WorkSafe ACT and the ACT Government. The ACT also participates in the Automatic Mutual Recognition (AMR) scheme, which may allow eligible interstate licence holders to work in the territory without obtaining separate recognition.
Before commencing traffic control work, workers generally require a valid White Card. If you do not already hold one, you can complete AlertForce’s Canberra White Card course. Those considering a career in the industry may also find our guides on what qualifications you need to become a traffic controller and how to work in traffic control useful.

What traffic control ticket or card do I need to work as a traffic controller in the ACT?
Traffic controllers in the ACT are generally expected to hold the relevant nationally recognised competencies for the duties they perform. Many employers require workers to complete both RIIWHS205E and RIIWHS302E before undertaking traffic control activities on site.
Is ACT government funding available for the traffic controller course in Canberra?
Funding availability and eligibility requirements can change over time. Contact AlertForce to discuss current funding options and determine whether you may qualify for subsidised training.
Can I use my interstate traffic control licence to work in the ACT?
The ACT participates in the Automatic Mutual Recognition (AMR) scheme. Eligible interstate licence holders may be able to work in the ACT without applying for separate recognition, subject to applicable conditions and exclusions.
Do I need the RIIWHS205E or the RIIWHS302E - or both - to work in traffic control in Canberra?
Many employers prefer workers to hold both units because they cover different traffic control responsibilities. Completing both RIIWHS205E and RIIWHS302E can improve employment opportunities and provide broader traffic management competencies.
How long does the traffic controller course take in Canberra and what do I receive on completion?
The combined traffic control course is typically completed over two to three days and includes both theory and practical assessment activities. Successful participants receive nationally recognised Statements of Attainment for the units completed.
