What is the responsibility of the controller receiving a traffic call?

The responsibility of the controller receiving a traffic call primarily involves ensuring that all restrictions are followed and that approved separation between aircraft is maintained. When a traffic call is received, it indicates that the controller must be aware of the potential conflicts with other aircraft and take appropriate actions to ensure safety. This includes monitoring the positions and trajectories of all aircraft in their sector to avoid collisions and maintain safe distances as per established aviation regulations.

Ensuring compliance with restrictions and maintaining separation is critical for preventing accidents and managing airspace efficiently. Additionally, this responsibility encompasses assessing the vertical and horizontal spacing of aircraft, and when necessary, providing instructions to adjust altitudes or headings to uphold safe operational standards.
