When multiple crews are working on a line cleared for work, what can any crew that requires a clearance do?

When multiple crews are working on a line that has been cleared for work, any crew that requires a clearance has the option to request a clearance. This action is critical for ensuring safety and operational efficiency. By formally requesting a clearance, the crew is taking the appropriate steps to ensure that all necessary precautions and protocols are followed before they begin their specific tasks. This procedure helps to avoid accidents or conflicts that may arise when multiple crews operate near one another or share the same work area.

It is essential for teams to communicate effectively and obtain the necessary permissions to maintain a safe working environment, thereby reducing the risk of incidents. This request for clearance affirms their role within a larger system of safety and accountability on the worksite.
