Chapter 8 barriers, also known as road safety barriers, are brightly coloured traffic management barriers that help protect pedestrians and road users from dangers in the road. These barriers meet all legal regulations and guidelines and ensure a high level of safety and security while continuing to keep traffic moving freely. Designed to support temporary traffic management systems, Chapter 8 barriers include visible strips, with their plastic coating illuminous in colour. This level of visibility is a requirement of these barriers as they must be visible in adverse weather conditions and at night.
