MZB Engineering specializes in Temporary Traffic Signal Plans required during construction when an existing or permanent traffic signal system is being modified, reconstructed, relocated, or temporarily taken out of its normal configuration. Our plans are developed to maintain safe and functional intersection operations throughout each stage of construction while coordinating temporary signal equipment, traffic control, pedestrian access, and construction phasing. Each plan is prepared using applicable MUTCD requirements, agency standards, project conditions, and sound engineering judgment.
Temporary traffic signal planning is often required on roadway, utility, grade-separation, and intersection improvement projects where construction affects an existing signalized intersection or the installation of a new permanent signal. We coordinate the temporary signal operation with the construction sequence so traffic can continue to move safely while the permanent improvements are being built.
The objective is not to redesign the permanent traffic signal system. MZB focuses on the temporary signal configuration needed to safely bridge the gap between existing conditions and the completed permanent improvements.
Temporary signal plans require a clear understanding of both traffic operations and the construction sequence. MZB combines traffic control expertise, construction-phasing experience, and licensed engineering oversight to develop temporary signal plans that are practical for the contractor and responsive to agency requirements. We also support clients through plan-check comments and revisions to help keep the review and construction process moving efficiently.

Professional Engineering Oversight: Our traffic control plans receive engineering oversight with emphasis on safety, constructability, applicable standards, and sound engineering judgment. Depending on the jurisdiction and project requirements, plans can be prepared and signed/sealed by the appropriately licensed professional engineer.
Proven Agency Experience: Our team has worked with more than 500 agencies across the country. That experience helps us recognize that agencies may interpret or supplement work-zone requirements differently based on local policy, roadway classification, traffic volumes, community impacts, and other project-specific conditions.
Responsive Through Approval: We stay engaged after the initial submittal, review comments with our clients, revise plans within the original scope at no extra cost and help address reviewer questions so issues can be resolved efficiently.
Our service is built around engineering quality, collaboration, responsiveness, and practical support throughout the traffic control plan review process.
Our temporary traffic signal plans receive professional engineering review with attention to temporary traffic operations, construction staging, applicable standards, and agency requirements. This engineering oversight helps identify conflicts early and supports safe, constructible temporary signal configurations.
Collaborative Approach:
We coordinate with contractors and project teams to understand how the work will actually be constructed. This allows the temporary signal plan to reflect the proposed staging and field constraints before it is submitted for agency review.
Responsive Review Support:
If the reviewing agency provides comments, MZB works with the client to evaluate the comments, revise the plan as needed, and address questions related to the temporary signal configuration.
What sets us apart is our strong commitment to staying ahead of evolving industry standards. We continuously ensure that our work reflects the latest guidelines and best practices.
A traffic control plan is an engineered set of drawings that shows how traffic, pedestrians, cyclists, and workers will be safely accommodated through or around a construction work zone. It may include signs, channelizing devices, lane or shoulder closures, flagging operations, detours, pedestrian routing, traffic shifts, and construction phasing. MZB develops each plan around the project scope, applicable MUTCD guidance, agency requirements, site conditions, and engineering judgment.
MZB’s traffic control plans are developed by experienced traffic control professionals with professional engineering oversight. MZB Engineering maintains professional engineering licensures in 9 states, and projects are handled in accordance with the licensing and sealing requirements of the applicable jurisdiction.
Traffic control plan pricing depends on the project scope, location, roadway conditions, number and type of closures, construction phasing, and reviewing jurisdiction. We provide project-specific pricing and clearly define the design scope before work begins. Revisions within the original project scope are provided at no extra cost.
Our plans are developed using the applicable MUTCD provisions together with state and local agency requirements and project-specific engineering judgment. Because agency requirements can vary, we also incorporate jurisdiction-specific criteria and lessons learned from our experience working with more than 500 agencies nationwide.
Turnaround depends on the size and complexity of the project, but responsive delivery is a core part of our service and expedited schedules may be available. We also provide unlimited revisions at no extra cost for changes within the original project scope and remain available to help address agency review comments.
