Conyers, GA
Full-Time
Traffic Control

A road construction flagger is responsible for directing vehicles and pedestrians safely through or around work zones, protecting both the crew and the public by controlling traffic flow with signs, paddles, and hand signals. The role involves constant situational awareness, clear communication, and adherence to traffic control standards and safety regulations.

Core duties

Direct traffic using stop/slow paddles, flags, or illuminated wands to guide vehicles and pedestrians through work zones safely.
Coordinate with fellow flaggers and supervisors via radios or hand signals to alternate traffic in single-lane closures and align with ongoing site operations.
Set up, monitor, and remove traffic control devices, including cones, barricades, warning signs, and message boards, ensuring visibility and compliance with standards.
Inform motorists about detours, lane shifts, and expected delays; answer basic questions courteously and concisely.
Monitor traffic behavior for hazards (speeding, confusion, near-misses) and adjust control patterns or notify the crew as needed.
Maintain work zone safety by staying alert to moving equipment, changing conditions, and emergency needs; assist emergency vehicles through the zone.
Document and report negligent or noncompliant drivers (e.g., recording license plates) to supervisors and, when required, law enforcement.
Assist crews with site safety tasks such as clearing debris that impacts traffic control, when appropriate and safe.

Skills and requirements

Strong communication and nonverbal signaling; ability to give clear, decisive directions under pressure.
High attention to detail, vigilance, and situational awareness in dynamic, high-risk environments.
Physical stamina to stand for long periods and work outdoors in all weather conditions, including heat, cold, and low light.
Knowledge of traffic laws, work zone standards, and the proper placement/use of signs, cones, and barriers.
Teamwork and coordination with supervisors, equipment operators, and other flaggers.
Reliability, professionalism, and the ability to remain calm and courteous with the public.

Typical qualifications

High school diploma or GED.
Valid driver’s license.
Work zone flagger certification as required by state or employer (e.g., ATSSA or state-approved training); refresher training at specified intervals.
Familiarity with the MUTCD and applicable state DOT work zone guidelines.
Prior construction or traffic control experience preferred but often not required; employers may provide on-the-job training.

Working conditions

Outdoor, roadside environments with exposure to weather, noise, dust, and moving traffic.
Extended shifts, possible nights, weekends, and variable schedules based on project needs.
Use of required PPE: high-visibility apparel (ANSI/ISEA-compliant), hard hat, safety footwear, and, as needed, eye/ear protection and gloves.

Success indicators

Zero-incident traffic control with smooth vehicle flow and minimal delays.
Proper, compliant setup and maintenance of traffic control devices throughout the shift.
Effective coordination with site activities and rapid, appropriate response to changing conditions or emergencies.
Accurate documentation and clear reporting of incidents and hazards.

Professional Attitude & conduct

Multi-task, interpersonal communication, problem solving, and time management skills are needed.

High degree of safety awareness and safety discipline

Display a professional and courteous attitude to co-workers, supervisors and the general public at all times.

Willing to travel and work away from home when and if required.
