TEMPORARY TRAFFIC BARRIER AND METHOD OF PROVISION THEREOF

摘要

A barrier unit for mounting on a road traffic control upright is described, comprising a hollow tape cartridge with a spindle rotatably mounted therein having tape wound thereon. A deploying aperture is provided in the cartridge through which a leading edge of tape projects to allow the tape to be dispensed by unwinding from the spindle. The cartridge has a receiving means on the tape cartridge to engagingly receive a leading edge of tape from another like cartridge and a mounting means associated with a lower part of the cartridge to mount the tape cartridge on or about an upper part of the road traffic control upright, allowing deployment of a temporary barrier system using several such cartridges and/or like mountings. A temporary barrier system and a method of temporary barrier deployment are also described.
