Retroreflective articles comprise a substrate and a bar code provided on the substrate. The bar code comprises at least one human-readable information which provides framing information and a machine-readable information which provides variable information. The human-readable information is visible under a first condition and invisible under a second condition, and the machine-readable information is invisible under the first condition and visible under the second condition.

A bollard sleeve with a removable or replaceable cover is described. In one example, the bollard sleeve includes a cover portion and a sleeve portion coupled to the cover portion. The cover portion can have a cover removably coupled to a skirt, and the sleeve portion can have a tab. When the tab is in a first position, the tab can prevent the cover from being removed. When the tab is in a second position, the tab can form an opening that allows the cover to be removed. The tab can be bent from the first position to the second position, or the tab can be removed from the sleeve portion.

There is disclosed a pole support for removably supporting a hollow tubular pole, wherein the pole has a latching recess provided along its length. The pole support includes a housing defining a socket that is open at its operative upper end for receiving the pole. A latch is located within the socket and is mounted on a pivot to be pivotally movable between a latched position and an unlatched position. The latch has a latching arm extending on one side of the pivot and a ballast arm extending on an opposed side of the pivot, wherein a centre-of-weight of the latch is located off-centre from the pivot in the ballast arm so that ballast arm normally biases latch under gravity into its latched position.

A collapsible boundary delineator includes a base for placement on a ground surface and a divider member that is movable relative to the base between a raised, operative position and a lowered, inoperative position. The base includes a pair of base members that are engageable with each other, and the divider member includes a pair of spaced apart ends secured one to each of the base members. When the base members are engaged together the divider member is in the raised, operative position and when the base members are disengaged from each other the divider member is in the lowered, inoperative position. A selectively releasable latch arrangement carried by the base members is movable between a latching position for selectively maintaining the base members in engagement with each other and a release position for selectively enabling the base members to be moved apart from each other.

A method of restricting access to an area comprises removing a plug from a receptacle in a ground region and positioning a base of a security barrier into the receptacle after the removing the plug. The receptacle extends downward from a surface of the ground region. The security barrier includes a tower extending upward from the base. The security barrier restricts movement of vehicles across the ground region when the base is received within the receptacle and the plug does not restrict movement of vehicles across the ground region when the plug is received within the receptacle. The plug has a first shape and the base of the security barrier has a second shape corresponding to the first shape of the plug. The first shape and the second shape are interchangeably receivable within the receptacle for selectively restricting movement across the ground region.

A safety trailer is shown including first and second platforms, at least one of said first and second platforms having an axle and wheels attached thereto; a plurality of interconnected wall sections positioned between and connected to the first and second platforms, the plurality of wall sections defining a protected work area on a side of the trailer; and wherein the trailer supports a ballast member, the ballast member being positioned near a first side of the trailer and the wall sections near a second, opposing side of the trailer, the ballast member offsetting, at least partially, a weight of the plurality of wall sections.

A socket mounted post system including a post with a hollow base portion attached to a spring mechanism. The spring mechanism includes a pillar, the pillar having a finger extending from the hollow base portion. The finger is engageable with a socket that is mountable in a floor. The spring mechanism allows the post to flex angularly relative to a vertical orientation of the post.

A safety trailer including first and second platforms, at least one of said first and second platforms having an axle and wheels attached thereto; a plurality of interconnected wall sections positioned between and connected to the first and second platforms, the plurality of wall sections defining a protected work area on a side of the trailer; and wherein each wall section has a lower bracing section comprising a single horizontal beam, two diagonal braces and a plurality of cross-braces, to allow workers in the protected work area to access a portion of the area under the wall section.
