A traffic barrier system of series connectable barriers, each barrier having a body with a skirt section, an intermediate section comprising a lower portion, a central portion, and an upper portion, and a head section extending above the intermediate section. The skirt section and lower portion have positive slopes. The upper portion and head section have negative slopes. A vertical end channel is formed on each of the opposite first and second ends. A lower tension bar is cast in the skirt section and an upper tension bar is cast in the head section. Within the body of the barrier, the tension bars are articulated in relation to each other. The tension bars have tabs extending out of the body for overlapping pivotal connection to an adjacent barrier.

A barrier for a roadway (e.g., a highway, bridge, or other road), which can be used to manage vehicular traffic, such as to establish lanes, protect motorists and other people (e.g., pedestrians, constructions workers, etc.) against crashes or other impacts, and/or other purposes, and which may be configured to enhance its use and performance, such as by better protecting the motorists and others when impacted by vehicles (e.g., reducing deflection by deflecting less or substantially not deflecting; mitigating risks of catapulting or vaulting of vehicles; and/or otherwise improving protection provided by the barrier), facilitating transportation, installation and/or transfer of the barrier at the roadway, and/or enhancing other aspects of the barrier.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an apparatus that enables temporary creation of a dedicated lane on a road for providing an uninterrupted passage to emergency vehicles. An aspect of the present disclosure pertains to an apparatus including a deployable asset that can be configured in a first position and in a second position, said first position being configured when said asset is not deployed and hangs vertically by means of a support mechanism, said second position being configured when said asset is deployed on a road by being vertically brought down from said first position such that upon deployment, said asset enables temporary creation of a dedicated lane on the road to enable uninterrupted passage of a defined vehicle.

A barrier transfer machine includes a moveable chassis, an entry snout, an exit snout, a conveyor system, and a tracking system that tracks and records the locations of road barriers as they are placed on a road surface so that the last locations of the barriers can be established for evidentiary purposes and/or for alerting operators or others of mis-positioned road barriers.

A traffic barrier lifter mountable on a boom and having a gearbox with a first and a second rotating axis; a pair of opposing arms directly mounted to the first and second rotating axis and a rotator capable of rotating the lifter relative to the boom, wherein the gearbox is capable of moving the pair of opposing arms from an open position to a closed position such that the arms can clamp onto a traffic barrier. The rotator being capable of rotating the arms and traffic barrier relative to the boom.

A crash barrier section (1) comprising a deflection body with at least one traveling gear (3) that is movable between a standby position and a displacement position. The at least one traveling gear (3) is retracted into the standby position in a receptacle (4) of the deflection body and is extended in the travel position from the receptacle (4) in such a manner that the crash barrier section (1) is movable on a support (5), in particular a road section. The crash barrier section (1) additionally comprises a lifting device (6) by which the crash barrier section (1) can be raised from the support (5) for extending and retracting the traveling gear (3).

A barrier system includes a plurality of barriers that can be used to form a barrier wall. Each barrier includes a first panel at least partially bounding a cavity and a first leg assembly supporting the first panel in an elevated position. A plurality of spikes are removably disposed on the first panel. A flexible snare is disposed within the cavity of the first panel, the snare being secured to the plurality of spikes so that when the spikes are removed from the first panel, the snare is drawn away from the first panel by the spikes.

A traffic barrier lifter mountable on a boom and having a gearbox with a first and a second rotating axis; a pair of opposing arms directly mounted to the first and second rotating axis and a rotator capable of rotating the lifter relative to the boom, wherein the gearbox is capable of moving the pair of opposing arms from an open position to a closed position such that the arms can clamp onto a traffic barrier. The rotator being capable of rotating the arms and traffic barrier relative to the boom.

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.

Self-propelled security road barrier, suitable for being used to temporarily close the access to streets, squares or other pedestrian areas in order to prevent the passage of motor vehicles that are launched at high speed for terrorism purposes.
