IMPORTANT

This is a professional template, not a project-approved risk assessment. It must be reviewed, completed and adapted for the actual road design, ground conditions, underground and overhead services, traffic interfaces, haul routes, material sources, plant, layer and compaction plan, test methods, workforce, weather, emergency arrangements, applicable legislation, standards and client requirements before use.

Every hazard, control and risk rating must be reviewed and approved by appropriately competent and authorised personnel.
