Overview

Road Flaggers & Traffic Control in - Calgary’s trusted choice.

MVP Security Inc. supplies certified road flaggers and traffic control persons (TCPs) to construction crews, utility operators, event producers, and municipal contractors across Calgary. Our flaggers are trained to Alberta Transportation's Traffic Accommodation in Work Zones (TA-WZ) standard, equipped with high-visibility Class-2 PPE, stop/slow paddles, and radio communications, and briefed on every site's specific Traffic Control Plan before the first cone goes down.

Calgary's busy street grid - major arterials like Deerfoot, Crowchild, Glenmore, Stoney Trail, and Memorial Drive, plus dense downtown one-ways - leaves no room for improvised traffic control. Road flaggers Calgary contractors rely on for safe, code-compliant work-zone traffic management is exactly what MVP Security delivers. We staff everything from a single flagger for a short water-main repair to multi-flagger crews for lane closures on 16 Avenue NE or full-road shutdowns for utility tie-ins in the Beltline.

We serve the entire Calgary region: downtown, NW, NE, SW, and SE quadrants, plus Airdrie, Cochrane, Okotoks, Chestermere, High River, Strathmore, Balzac, Crossfield, De Winton, and the surrounding Rocky View, Foothills, and Wheatland County areas. Same-day and next-day flagger deployment is our standard - call our 24/7 dispatch at (587) 355-3113 and we'll staff the crew you need.
