You may communicate with authorities on site and liaise with the MTO central dispatch to ensure adequate resources are available to maintain public safety on the highways during adverse conditions. When you are not patrolling the highways or doing minor repairs, you will be conducting daily circle checks on vehicles, cleaning and performing minor repairs, as well as estimating time, materials, and equipment required to complete tasks and contract requirements. Safety will be your number one priority, as you conduct regular tailgate talks with the staff and when providing traffic control at accident scenes and making snow and ice control decisions such as initiating equipment and operator call outs. It will also be important to stay organized when completing and reviewing daily diaries, time sheets, fuel logs etc. to ensure they are all accurately completed and submitted on time.

You will be an essential member of the maintenance team and first point of contact in some situations. If you have a safety focused mindset and love to be on the road, this is the ideal role for you.
