Toolbox Talk Description:

Preventing and Managing Incursions on National Highways Toolbox Talk: Protecting Worksites from Unauthorised Access

The Preventing and Managing Incursions on National Highways Toolbox Talk provides essential guidance for preventing, identifying, and managing vehicle incursions into highways work zones. Developed in line with Raising the Bar 27 (RTB27), this document aligns with UK safety regulations, including the Traffic Signs Manual (Chapter 8), the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, and HSE guidance on temporary traffic management and workplace transport safety. It supports businesses in minimising incursion risks, protecting site personnel, and maintaining secure work zones.

Vehicle incursions—when unauthorised vehicles enter restricted work areas—pose serious risks to highways workers and road users alike. These incidents can occur due to driver confusion, deliberate entry, or insufficient traffic management measures. This toolbox talk covers key strategies for incursion prevention, including:

  • Implementing clear, consistent signage in line with Chapter 8 requirements
  • Installing physical barriers and temporary vehicle restraint systems (TVRS)
  • Using mobile traffic management units (TMUs) to monitor and respond to incursion risks
  • Training operatives on incursion response protocols and emergency procedures

The document emphasises the importance of conducting site-specific risk assessments to identify high-risk areas, such as lane closures, contraflows, and entry/exit points. Workers are also trained to recognise signs of potential incursion risks, including driver hesitation, erratic behaviour, or inadequate signage visibility. In line with Raising the Bar 27, the toolbox talk encourages collaboration with police and traffic officers when planning traffic management schemes to improve site security.
