The present disclosure relates to a safe foothold apparatus for a platform, wherein a foothold plate protrudes from and is retracted into the platform by moving along a curved rotational route so that the foothold plate is re-retracted into the platform safely due to the operation structure even when a collision occurs between a train and the foothold plate in a protrusion state. Therefore, the present invention can prevent the foothold plate and the train from being damaged, thereby establishing safer boarding/alighting environment and stably maintaining the operational state of the foothold plate by using a frictional contact module even in an emergency situation. Accordingly, the present invention can improve safety through a simple structure, facilitate the manufacturing and establishment work by simplifying a structure of a manual operation module, reduce the size of a whole apparatus, and far enhance the operational stability.

A method for repairing a damaged band of a fuel pump island, comprising: selecting among preformed band pieces to form a replacement band system for the fuel pump island, wherein the preformed band pieces include one or more of a straight band piece for covering a straight portion of a vertical wall of the fuel pump island, an outside corner band piece for covering an outside corner portion of the vertical wall of the fuel pump island, and an inside corner band piece for covering an inside corner portion of the vertical wall of the fuel pump island; preparing the fuel pump island by removing debris from the vertical wall and a top surface of the fuel pump island; installing the replacement band system over the damaged band of the fuel pump island by attaching respective wall portions of the preformed band pieces to the vertical wall of the fuel pump island; and, finishing a top surface of the fuel pump island to at least a height that is level with top surfaces of respective flange portions of the preformed band pieces.

A system to improve the management of through traffic and vehicles entering and exiting a multilane roadway. The lanes are separated by at least one lane separator which should not be crossed by traffic along a designated portion of the roadway, such as within a predetermined distance from a roadway entrance or exit. The at least one lane separator may be any lane marking, barrier, or the like. The at least one lane separator can be any length and located anywhere with respect to the lanes.

A boarding system for a vehicle includes at least one pivotable sealing cover, which is pivotable from a walk-on first position into a non-walk-on second position, wherein the sealing cover is flush with an outer side of the vehicle in the non-walk-on second position.

Zonal transportation hubs providing an interface between public and private road-transport at highway junctions. A public-transport zone has a dedicated road network connecting the highways to a station and a separate private-transport zone has a separate road network connecting the highways to a parking lot. A pedestrian zone provides a uninterrupted route between the parking lot and the station.

A roundabout for vehicular traffic is provided from a plurality of modular blocks arranged in a generally circular roundabout pattern and affixed to a roadway or ground surface at an intersection of vehicle roadways. Roundabouts can be formed in any desired diameter. In some embodiments, the modular blocks can have a trapezoidal plan shape laid out in concentric rings. The trapezoidal shaped blocks can be cut from a length of board having a constant width and thickness. The modular blocks can be provided as a kit of parts delivered to worksite at an intersection of vehicle roadways where a roundabout is desired. Splitter islands, sidewalks, and curbing of blocks having appropriate shapes can also be provided.
