TRAFFIC CIRCULATION AND CONTROL PLANNERS Theater Army Highway Traffic Division (HTD) Corps Transportation Officer (CTO) Corps Movement Control Center (MCC) Corps Highway Traffic Division (HTD) Theater Army Movement Control Agency (TAMCA) Division Transportation Officer (DTO) Corps/Division Provost Marshal (PMO)

16. DIVISION/CORPS PMO Determines priorities of MP operations with CO Tasks MP assets to meet mission priorities Advises the CO on the employment of MP Coordinates MP missions with the rear CP

17. ENABLING LEARNING OBJECTIVE ACTION: Identify and discuss the planning documents used to implement MMSO on the battlefield. CONDITIONS: Given a lecture, discussion and current reference materials. STANDARD: Identify the documents used to facilitate MMSO.

18. PRODUCTS General route information (effects of weather, obstructions, route class.) Traffic information (density, volume and need for patrols) Designated MSRs and ASRs Formulated by CTO/DTO; PMO refines plan based on MP reconnaissance patrols or engineer recons Developed by the PM and implements the Traffic Circulation Plan Final product designates TCPs, mobile patrols, route signing, and any special circulation control measures

19. ENABLING LEARNING OBJECTIVE ACTION: Discuss MP employment of basic and special circulation and control measures. CONDITIONS: Given a lecture, discussion and current reference materials. STANDARD: Identify the special circulation and control measures used in support of MMSO.

20. MSR Regulation and Enforcement Keep the MSRs open for re-supply operations through basic and special control measures Enforce MCC/HTD, DTO and PMO plans Route classifications – Open - No authorization required – Supervised - Columns must have movement credits – Dispatch - Must have movement credits – Reserved - Set aside – Prohibited - No traffic allowed

21. MANEUVER AND MOBILITY SUPPORT OPERATIONS Traffic Control Posts (TCPs) Mobile Patrols Temporary Route Signs BASIC CONTROL MEASURES

22. Traffic Control Post Monitor/assist traffic authorized on MSR Route security at critical junctions Reroute traffic Gather/report intel Pass information Assist stragglers/refugees

23. Mobile Patrol Most versatile MP unit Information provider –Battle Command –CCIR

24. Temporary Route Signs Guide Warning Confirmation Confidence Countdown Regulatory Hazard Special

25. Route Signing Guidelines Use minimum number to be specific Urban areas require more signs than rural areas Night routes require more than day routes Inform drivers to follow a common route when two signed routes converge Signs should only be visible from direction of approach and seen from a reasonable distance Consider Lighting Conditions Same height One meter from road One side of road Tilt forward

26. MANEUVER AND MOBILITY SUPPORT OPERATIONS SPECIAL CONTROL MEASURES Holding Areas Roadblocks Checkpoints Defiles Straggler Posts Straggler Collection Points

27. MANEUVER AND MOBILITY SUPPORT OPERATIONS HOLDING AREA Selection Criteria Allows for tactical dispersion Has easy entry and exit to MSR Surface supports vehicle movement Good cover and concealment Offers good defenses

28. MANEUVER AND MOBILITY SUPPORT OPERATIONS Roadblocks and Check Points Force Protection Stability Operations Support Operations Tactical Uses

29. MANEUVER AND MOBILITY SUPPORT OPERATIONS Defiles Usually squad task Site selection Communications is key

30. ENABLING LEARNING OBJECTIVE ACTION: Describe and discuss how MP Units support and the control measures used during river crossing operations.

31. RIVER CROSSING OPERATIONS

32. BRIDGE CROSSINGS Caution & Risk Hasty, Deliberate & Retrograde

33. DIVISION OF FORCES Assault Follow-up forces Support forces Combat Service Support

34. Crossing Control Measures The area on the enemy side of the obstacle that is large enough to accommodate the majority of the crossing force, to permit defense of the crossing sites. It provides a base area for continued attack. The outer limits of the bridgehead, tied to the right and left flanks of the crossing front The length of the river line in the zone of the crossing force. It contains one or more crossing areas. A designated area that facilitates control of units crossing the obstacles. It contains one or more crossing sites.

35. Locations along the obstacle where the crossings are actually made. Waiting areas for convoys designated to cross the river. Located to facilitate re-routing of traffic to alternate crossing areas, if needed. Space for vehicles to halt and disperse Located within and beyond the Traffic Regulating Lines Help prevent congestion when used along roads to bridges and raft sites Crossing Control Measures

36. River Crossing Overlay

37. ENGINEER REGULATING POINTS (ERP) Located near or within - Staging area - Holding area - Crossing sites Ensure vehicle weights do not exceed capability of crossing means

38. TRAFFIC CONTROL HEADQUARTERS Authority to plan, schedule, route and monitor traffic Co-located with crossing force HQ MP rep assists in MP utilization and passes info to PM staff Allots routes and timing; preps movement tables Prepares traffic circulation plans Monitors traffic movement

39. MOVEMENT PLAN OVERLAY Annex to Division OPORD Includes movement overlay with traffic circulation details Lack of fully distributed plan intensifies need for MP representatives at Traffic Control HQ.
