5.3.1.1 Securing within public road traffic
If the Ruthmann-Steiger is used within road traffic, it must be secured
against the traffic acc. to the local regulations of the country (e.g. German
Road Traffic Act StVO).
Before starting the protection work having an effect on the road traffic, the
closings and markings of the working site must be discussed/agreed with
the competent authority.
When using certain things for the regulation and steering of the traffic you
have to take special care of safety. Markings, traffic signs and traffic instal-
lations should steer the traffic usefully, they should not contradict each oth-
er and in such a way guide the traffic safely. The perception must not be
restricted by the use of too many traffic installations. The traffic signs and
traffic installations must correspond to the prescribed regulations (e.g.
German Road Traffic Act „StVO).
Securing against traffic dangers can e.g. be done by:
Switching-on of the rotating flashing beacons discernible from all
sides. Please note that the rotating flashing beacons have a high
electricity consumption. One might let the vehicle engine run for
the whole period of operation!
