What is a Traffic Management Plan (TMP)?
A TMP is a formal document approved by Malaysian regulatory authorities (Traffic Police, JKR, local councils, City Hall, highway concessionaires, MRT Corp) that defines how traffic will be safely managed during construction or road works. It specifies temporary signage, lane closures, diversions, personnel deployment and emergency response procedures.
Does Muhibah provide both the TMP design AND the on-site team?
Yes. Muhibah is a full-service traffic management provider — we design the TMP, submit for regulatory approval, then mobilise our own certified team (Traffic Manager, TMO, Supervisor, TMDT Driver, Flagman, Traffic Controller) and fleet (TMDT Lorry, ERT Vehicle, Shadow Vehicle, Water Tanker, Road Sweeper) to execute the TMP on-site for the full construction duration.
Does Muhibah supply all the signage and barriers for traffic management work zones?
Yes. Muhibah supplies temporary JKR and Highway/LLM signage, lightweight plastic barriers, plastic hoarding, traffic cones, delineators, chevrons, blinkers, warning lights, VMS, obstruction markers — and many other materials required by a TMP. A full supply list is available on request.
What authorities in Malaysia approve TMPs?
Approvals come from the Royal Malaysian Police (Traffic Police), Public Works Department (JKR), Local Councils (Majlis Bandaraya / Majlis Perbandaran), City Hall (DBKL for Kuala Lumpur), highway concessionaires (PLUS, Litrak, Prolintas, LPT2, KESAS, SPRINT), and for rail-related works MRT Corp or Prasarana.
Can Muhibah provide 24-hour ERT coverage on long-duration projects?
Yes. For projects requiring round-the-clock coverage (typically highway works, MRT/LRT rail projects, or major federal road upgrades), Muhibah deploys shifted ERT and TMO personnel with dedicated patrol vehicles, ensuring continuous site presence and emergency response.
What is a TMDT Lorry?
TMDT stands for Traffic Management Deployment Team. The TMDT Lorry is Muhibah's dedicated truck for rapidly deploying traffic management equipment to a work zone — carrying temporary signage, cones, barriers, chevrons and other materials, plus the TMDT Driver and supporting crew. Multiple TMDT Lorries operate across different Muhibah project sites simultaneously.
What is a Shadow Vehicle?
A Shadow Vehicle is a dedicated truck that trails behind a moving work convoy (e.g. line-painting, pothole repair, emergency works) to protect workers from oncoming traffic. Fitted with high-visibility markings, flashing lights and an impact-absorbing rear bumper. Muhibah deploys Shadow Vehicles on all moving-work-zone projects.
How much does a Malaysian traffic management plan cost?
Cost depends on project complexity, road class, duration, personnel required and fleet deployment. A single-day local-road TMP costs significantly less than a multi-month highway TMP with 24-hour ERT coverage. WhatsApp +6012-351 3349 with your scope for a firm quote.
Are you a traffic management contractor we can engage on a construction project?
Yes. Muhibah is one of the established traffic management contractors in Malaysia. Main contractors and developers engage us as a specialist TM subcontractor to author and execute the construction-site Traffic Management Plan from mobilisation through demobilisation — covering JKR-spec TMP design, regulatory submissions, certified TMO/CTMO deployment, ERT cover, and supply of all temporary signage and barriers.
What is a construction site Traffic Management Plan (TMP)?
A construction site TMP is a JKR/REAM/ATJ-compliant document that defines how traffic — public traffic, site vehicles, pedestrians and emergency vehicles — will be safely managed for the duration of the construction works. It covers advance-warning sign sequence, lane-closure layouts, diversion routes, flagman positions, ERT response procedures and the day-to-day staffing plan. For Malaysian projects, TMPs are submitted to and approved by the relevant authority (Polis Trafik, JKR, DBKL, local council, highway concessionaire or MRT Corp depending on the road class).
Do you write the traffic management plan for construction or only execute one we provide?
Both — and the same team can do both. Most clients prefer Muhibah to author the TMP from scratch (faster, no co-ordination overhead, the team that wrote it executes it). For clients who already have a draft TMP, we review, revise to JKR/REAM compliance, take it through approval, then execute on site.
