This is a not a prerequisite to MnDOT's TCS training, but an option for individuals who are new to traffic control.

Students will be exposed to traffic control special provisions standard language, 2018 Field Manual updates, long term traffic control, temporary barriers and signing, work zone speed limits, temporary/interim pavement markings, portable changeable message signs, and pedestrian and bicycles accessibility in work zones.
