As a Dedicated Patroller, you will become familiar with your assigned patrol area as you monitor provincial highways to help ensure the safety of the travelling public. Through proactive inspections and continuous monitoring, you will identify roadway deficiencies, hazards, and changing conditions proactively, taking immediate action where required and coordinating follow-up repairs and maintenance activities.
You will be responsible for completing thorough Road Patrol inspections while maintaining awareness of roadway conditions, traffic operations, infrastructure deficiencies, environmental concerns, corridor permit compliance, and public safety concerns. Your work will include documenting and addressing hazards, removing minor debris, installing temporary warning devices, responding to public complaints, monitoring weather impacts, and communicating roadway conditions and incidents to the Traffic Operations Centre (TOC).
Strong organizational and communication skills will be important as you maintain accurate documentation including patrol diaries, roadway inspection records, incident details, weather and road condition reporting, vehicle inspections, deficiency tracking, and daily activity reporting in accordance with contract requirements.
You will also respond to incidents, support emergency situations and unplanned highway events, coordinate with internal operations teams, police, and external agencies, and ensure hazards are addressed safely and efficiently while maintaining patrol coverage requirements.
If you have a safety-first mindset, strong attention to detail, enjoy working independently, and take pride in protecting the travelling public, this is the ideal role for you.
Schedule: This position follows a Thursday–Monday workweek.
