Road isolation guardrails are a major component of traffic safety infrastructure. They serve to separate flows of traffic, help avoid collisions, and keep order on the roads. Zhengda Steel Structure has been designing and building quality road isolation guardrails for a variety of applications for over 27 years. Many engineering and transportation departments lack knowledge regarding the specific applications of road isolation guardrails. This document will explain the primary applications of road isolation guardrails while illustrating why Zhengda products are most suitable for the applications.
Urban Major Roads and Arterial Roads
The high volume of traffic and variety of vehicles on urban major roads and arterial roads requires the use of road isolation guardrails. Zhengda road isolation guardrail systems separate motorized vehicle lanes, non-motorized vehicle lanes, and pedestrian ways, which eliminates mixed traffic and erratic lane shifting. The reflective characteristics and anti-glare panels of the guardrails are designed to improve night time and inclement weather driving safety. Road isolation guardrails have become a standard for urban major roads in large and medium sized cities because they effectively combat traffic congestion and reduce the incidence of accidents.
Highways and Expressways
Road Isolation Guard Rail needs to be used on all Highways and Expressways to ensure high-speed driving safety. Driven by strong anti-collision performance and impact energy absorption to reduce accident damage, Zhengda's road isolation guard Rail can be used on all highways and remain corrosion resistant. Zhengda road isolation guard rails have designed to be continuous and closed, leading to be no entry for all highways. No entry for pedestrians and no entry for wildlife leads to severe accidents not happening. Outside conditions will not affect use and will ensure long use. No constant monitoring will be needed on Zhengda road isolation guard rails.
Residential Areas and School Zones
Dense pedestrians zones such as residential areas and school zones. Zhengda road isolation guard rails have designed to be of moderate height and anti-climb features that stop kids from road-crossing. Zhengda road isolation guard rail use of flexible design for guard rails makes road-crossing not needed.
Bridges and Overpasses
Bridges and Overpasses have unique designs and safety requirements which call for road isolation guardrails to enhance safety. Zhengda's road isolation guardrails are designed with wind resistance and stability for high altitude environments. Zhengda’s road isolation guardrails are treated to resist erosion caused by rain, fog, and salt spray to extend service life. Zhengda’s road isolation guardrails for overpasses can also guide vehicles to avoid collisions caused by sharp turns and steep slopes.
Construction Sites and Temporary Traffic Zones
Road isolation guardrails are used in Construction Sites and Temporary Traffic Zones to block off construction areas and direct traffic. Zhengda's Road Isolation guardrails have a modular design which allows for easy installation, disassembly and quick construction adaption. The road isolation guard’s robust design helps to prevent construction debris and dust from clogging the road and allows for the safe and easy passage of vehicles and pedestrians. Once construction is completed, the road isolation guard can be re-used, eliminating the cost associated with temporary traffic control.
Tourist Safety and Guided Paths
Tourists frequent pedestrian streets and scenic zones attracting vehicles that need to be controlled with road isolation guardrails to keep the order and protect the environment. Zhengda’s road isolation guardrails can be customized to fit the scenic area’s style and will integrate beautifully to the surroundings. Zhengda road isolation guardrails divide the pedestrian streets from the vehicles access roads keeping the tourists safe. Moreover, the road isolation guardrails show the tourist pathways and help avoid crowding.
Conclusion
Road isolation guardrails are used along main urban roads, highways, residential roads, bridges, construction sites, and scenic roads. Zhengda Steel Structures road isolation guardrails are designed to meet the requirements of various situations because of their outstanding adaptability, performance, and design. Zhengda is an ISO certified company and a Fortune 500 partner, whose road isolation guardrails have been recognized and trusted by customers across 30 provinces in China and in various countries in Asia and Africa. Zhengda’s road isolation guardrails are all about road safety, order traffic, and accident reduction. When it comes to traffic isolation and safety, Zhengda’s road isolation guardrails are the best option.
