proposed work that may be taking place at the same time.
Arrange for Traffic Control
If working near a road or other traffic area, contact local authorities about safety procedures and
regulations.
Plan for Emergency Services
Have the telephone numbers for local emergency and medical facilities on hand. Check that you will have
access to a telephone.
