About the pointsmen project

Since 2005, the OUTsurance Pointsmen Project has helped to alleviate traffic congestion, contributed towards road safety and created job opportunities for underprivileged communities.

There are two types of pointsmen. Static pointsmen are assigned to specific high-traffic intersections, while mobile pointsmen are dispatched to traffic hot spots at a moment’s notice.

These men and women are truly passionate about making your daily commute as stress-free as possible – you’ll recognise them by their bright-yellow bibs, toothy grins and friendly demeanour!
