Roadwork Planning & Closures

Buffalo Barricade Offers Comprehensive Detour Strategies

Road detour planning is essential to minimizing disruption during construction. The team at Buffalo Barricade develops comprehensive detour strategies that ensure continued traffic flow and public safety during road or lane closures or in restricted access zones across Western New York.

We work closely with municipalities, DOTs and law enforcement to ensure detours comply with all regulations and signage standards.

About Our Road Detour Planning

We work closely with municipalities, DOTs, and law enforcement to ensure detours comply with all regulations and signage standards. Each detour plan includes engineered traffic control drawings, digital mapping for GPS updates and clear communication protocols for motorists and commercial fleets.

Whether it’s a single-day utility project or a months-long infrastructure upgrade, our detour plans are designed to reduce driver confusion and limit congestion while maintaining access for residents and businesses.

Temporary Road Closures and Lane Closures

Temporary road and lane closures are often necessary to carry out essential construction, utility, or maintenance work—but they must be executed with precision and compliance. Our company specializes in planning and implementing short-term closures that meet municipal and state regulations, protect workers, and maintain public safety.

This includes preparing and submitting detailed traffic control plans (TCPs), obtaining all required permits, setting up advanced warning signage, and deploying certified traffic control personnel. We assess the work zone layout, traffic flow impact and time-of-day restrictions to create a closure plan that limits disruption, ensures safety and keeps projects on schedule.

Whether a full road shutdown or a single lane taper, we provide full-service support from initial notice through field implementation.

Sidewalk Closure

Not only do we offer full road and single lane closures, our team is able to handle sidewalk closures. In transportation management plans, it’s crucial to keep pedestrians in mind and manage their safety. 

Our team is able to determine alternate routes or full sidewalk closures, and complete it up to the town or counties requirements.
