FAQ'S
Streetworks training was introduced in 1991 by way of the New Roads and Streetworks Act. This act mandated that everyone working on a UK roadworks jobsite must have proper training and certification. For telecoms and fibre network contractors, Streetworks training focuses on the specific challenges of installing and maintaining related ducting, cabling and cabinets in public areas.
This course normally combines theory and hands-on instruction, with topics covered to include:
- Health and safety law and duty of care
- The basics of Signing, Lighting and Guarding (SLG) for worksites
- Safe and effective excavation and backfilling techniques
- Locating existing underground services using the CAT & Genny machines
- Reinstatement of various surface types
- Traffic management for minor projects
- Environmental and public protection measures
Special attention is given to narrow trench work, cable installation and working in residential areas.
Should you successfully complete the course, certification will be provided by one of the following:
- City & Guilds
- The Certification and Assessment Board for the Water Industry (CABWI)
- The Scottish Qualification Authority (SQA)
- Lantra
Certification will be valid for 5 years from the date of issue.
