Water-Filled Barriers

Every construction project is different, so it’s important to select the proper barrier to keep motorists, pedestrians, and workers safe. While some instances call for concrete barriers that offer protection during high-speed zones, our water-filled barriers are ideal for low-speed work areas. The benefits of this type of barrier are clear.

Water-filled barriers have a wide array of functions, and they offer the ultimate flexibility. In construction work zones, they serve as a safety barrier for work crews, pedestrians, and drivers. For high-traffic areas, they work great for controlling and channeling vehicles and pedestrians. They can also serve as temporary roadblocks.

Each piece can be used individually or locked together with a metal pin to create a longer barrier. Thanks to their portable, lightweight design, they’re easy to move around throughout the duration of your project.

Water-filled barriers can be placed:

Along the sides of roads to create a safety buffer
Through lanes to prevent the flow of traffic
Across crosswalk areas to provide extra protection
Around construction areas to ensure the safety of workers
In high-traffic areas to redirect the flow of cars and pedestrians
