If your event impacts council-controlled roads, you will need to liaise with QPS and your local council to manage any event impacts. To support the local community, sporting groups and event organisers, a Process Flow Chart and Frequently Asked Questions are available to help better understand the traffic management requirements for special events. This flow chart outlines the process for holding special events that impact state-controlled roads. Read the Event Traffic Management Design Guidelines for information. The Department of Transport and Main Roads has published guidelines on traffic control measures and devices used to warn, instruct and guide road users for all types of events. To run a special event in Queensland, organisers must obtain written approval from the Queensland Police Service (QPS) and the public or private authorities responsible for the roads the event will use.
