Overview

Traffic Control Services | Maryland, DC & Virginia

Traffic control services from R&R Contracting — ATSSA-certified crews, turnkey work-zone operations, and MUTCD-compliant flagging across Maryland, DC & Virginia.

Traffic control services are R&R Contracting’s core discipline. We deliver ATSSA-certified crews, turnkey work-zone operations, and compliance-first traffic management to general contractors, state DOTs, municipalities, and private developers across Maryland, Washington DC, Virginia, and the greater Mid-Atlantic. From initial Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) plan through setup, flagging, signage, lane closure, and teardown, R&R’s traffic control services keep projects moving and the public safe — whether you need a fully managed operation or specialized labor to extend your own team.

What’s Included in R&R Traffic Control Services

Every traffic control engagement is scoped to the specific geometry, schedule, and compliance requirements of your project.

Lane Closures & Traffic Diversion

Single-lane, multi-lane, rolling, and full-closure operations — deployed to MUTCD and state DOT standards, maintained through the work window, and broken down on schedule.

Flagging & Pedestrian Management

ATSSA-certified flaggers for construction, utility, and emergency work. Pedestrian routing, ADA-compliant crosswalk closures, and intersection control during signal outages.

Temporary Signage & Barriers

Advance warning signs, drums, cones, arrow boards, and concrete or water-filled barriers. Setups engineered to the speed and geometry of each work zone.

Work Zone Management & Night Operations

Full work-zone traffic management, including after-hours and night-work setups with light-tower placement and illuminated warning.

MOT Plan Development

Traffic control plans engineered to MUTCD and state DOT submittal standards when your project needs one designed from scratch.

A Traffic Control Company Built for the Mid-Atlantic

R&R Contracting operates as a traffic control company across Maryland, Washington DC, Virginia, Delaware, and Pennsylvania. Our crews and equipment are positioned regionally to mobilize quickly for utility work, road construction, bridge projects, emergency response, and scheduled maintenance. General contractors, county public works departments, and state transportation agencies work with R&R because we bring the full service — plan, equipment, personnel, compliance, and teardown — to every job site we operate.

Turnkey Service or Embedded Staffing

R&R delivers traffic control two ways. Turnkey: we manage the full work zone end to end — plan, equipment, crew, compliance, and breakdown. Embedded staffing: we supply ATSSA-certified traffic control personnel to extend your own project team for the hours and scope you define. OSHA- and ATSSA-trained, badged, and ready to deploy on short notice across the region.

MUTCD & State DOT Compliance

Every R&R traffic control setup meets MUTCD (Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices) standards and the specific compliance requirements of the relevant state DOT — MDOT SHA in Maryland, VDOT in Virginia, DDOT in Washington DC, DelDOT in Delaware, and PennDOT in Pennsylvania. Documentation, signage placement, and personnel certifications are maintained audit-ready for inspection.

Service FAQ

What areas does R&R provide traffic control services in?

We provide traffic control services across Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey. Baltimore and the DC metro represent our highest job density, but we deploy crews region-wide, including for long-duration highway and utility projects.

What makes R&R a qualified traffic control company?

R&R Contracting has operated as a turnkey traffic control company across the Mid-Atlantic since 1992. Our crews are ATSSA certified and OSHA trained, and we hold MBE, WBE, DBE, and SLBE certifications. We manage roughly 30 active jobs per week and maintain a 2,000-plus worker database to meet demand on short notice.

Are R&R's traffic control crews ATSSA certified?

Yes. Every R&R traffic control crew member holds current ATSSA (American Traffic Safety Services Association) certification. Our work zone setups follow MUTCD (Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices) and state DOT standards. We maintain certification records for every worker and can provide documentation for project compliance files.

How fast can R&R deploy a traffic control crew?

Short-notice deployments are standard for our operation. With around 900 active bids per week and a 2,000-plus worker database, we can typically field certified flaggers and MOT equipment within 24 to 48 hours for most Mid-Atlantic locations. Emergency utility work can often be supported same-day.

Is R&R a minority-certified traffic control subcontractor?

Yes. R&R Contracting holds MBE (Minority Business Enterprise), WBE (Women-Owned Business Enterprise), DBE (Disadvantaged Business Enterprise), and SLBE (Small Local Business Enterprise) certifications. This qualifies us for government and DOT projects that require certified subcontractor participation.
