What happens after I submit my application?
Once you submit a Worksite or TMP application, it moves into the RCA's processing queue and your application status for the respective item changes from "Draft" to "Submitted."
Your application enters a formal assessment process where RCA staff will review your proposed work against their policies, safety requirements, and any potential conflicts with other activities in the area.
They'll have a standardised process to examine your work plans, timing, location details, and details in your TMP to ensure everything meets their standards.
During this review, the RCA may decline your application with a request to submit additional information or might be suggesting modifications.
You will be notified via email of this. Alternatively, your applicant dashboard lists any "Declined Worksites" and "Declined TMPs" so you can take action on these swiftly.
How will I know if my application has been received?
If you are unsure on whether the Worksite or TMP application has been submitted, check the status of your application within the myWorksites system.
Open the Worksite or TMP menu and check whether your application is appearing in the list of "Submitted" items.
Alternatively, open the Worksite or TMP in question and look for its Status-flag, which is displayed at the top of the page; e.g.
Draft / Published Draft
Submitted (as in the picture above)
Accepted
Declined
You will also have received an auto-generated email notification from the system when you submitted a TMP or a Worksite application.

Who reviews my application?
Your application is reviewed by RCA staff who specialise in corridor access and traffic management.
The specific reviewer depends on your RCA's internal processes and the nature of your proposed work.
Once someone is assigned to your application, their name will be displayed on the Worksite and/or TMP pages. Check for the field saying "RCA Assignee".
How long does the review process take?
Review times vary depending on the RCA, complexity of your work, and current application volumes.
What if my application is declined?
It is common for an RCA to decline your application so that you can address any issues they find.
If your application is declined, you will receive an email notifying you of the decision. The RCA will typically provide reasons for the application being declined which you will find in the Comments and History section of the Worksite or TMP.
If an application is declined, you are able to create a revision of the Worksite or the TMP, addressing any issues which the RCA may have identified and then submit your revised application back to the RCA.
Can I make changes after submission?
If you need to make a change to your application after it has been submitted or accepted, use the revision process built into the myWorksite system.
Any revisions you make in an application will need to be accepted by the RCA before the revisions can be implemented. Ensure you allow enough processing time for changes before they are needed.
To create a revision to a Submitted, Accepted or Declined application click the "Create Revision" button (which can be found in the bottom right hand corner).
