An RCC Jersey barrier or Road Barrier is a modular concrete barrier employed to separate lanes of traffic. It is designed to minimize vehicle damage in cases of incidental contact while still preventing the crossover case of a head-on collision. Jersey Barriers are also used to reroute traffic and protect pedestrians during highway construction.
Technical Specifications :
- Manufactured by M-30 grade of concrete by vibro compaction process. Suitably reinforced to promote long use and to prevent damage during handling, transportation b erection.
- Reinforced with 8mm dia. Tor Steel at 150mm center to center both ways.
Some of the advantages of precast concrete jersey / central road barriers are as follows:
- Can be used in high security areas to control access and movement
- High stability and ability to restrain the vehicle in case of accident and collision
- The installation time is almost negligible as compared with construction of conventional medians.
- Virtually zero maintenance costs
- The specifications of Jersey Barrier make it suitable for dividing roads with high traffic volume and density.
Applications
- Central Road Verges
- Road Diversions
- Temporary Barriers
- Constructions site Boundary Barriers
