An anchorless crash cushion apparatus having a plurality of interconnected water-filled crash cushion elements and a non-water filled forward-most cushion element includes vehicle capture structure resisting upward tilting of a frontally impacting vehicle and ramping of the frontally impacting vehicle and stabilizing structure resisting relative rotation between the crash cushion elements in both vertical and lateral planes during vehicle impact. External elongated deformable structural members extend along the sides of the crash cushion elements and bend outwardly away from the crash cushion elements during frontal vehicle impact.

An anchorless crash cushion apparatus having a plurality of interconnected water-filled crash cushion elements and a non-water filled forward-most cushion element includes vehicle capture structure resisting upward tilting of an impacting vehicle and ramping of the impacting vehicle and stabilizing structure resisting relative rotation between the crash cushion elements in both vertical and lateral planes during vehicle impact. The forward-most cushion element defines a notch and a metal nose cap having a weakened midsection is located in front of the notch.

An anchorless crash cushion apparatus having a plurality of interconnected water-filled crash cushion elements and a non-water filled forward-most cushion element includes vehicle capture structure resisting upward tilting of an impacting vehicle and ramping of the impacting vehicle and stabilizing structure resisting relative rotation between the crash cushion elements in both vertical and lateral planes during vehicle impact. A transition weldment is employed to connect the anchorless crash cushion apparatus to a rigid hazard object.

Roadway barrier cover

Roadway barrier bicycle safety apparatus for attachment to an upper portion of a roadway barrier segment for topping the upper portion to prevent a bicycle from extending over the upper portion. The apparatus includes a shell having a curved upper surface and configured to prevent snagging of a bicycle or bicycle rider.

Crash attenuator guardrail apparatus includes an impact head and a backstop having a cable and guardrails supported by guardrail supports located between the impact head and the backstop. Frictional forces are applied to the cable to control and resist movement of the impact head toward the backstop and provide lateral resistance. The guardrail supports include a base having break away structure and brace members having bends and which shorten or lengthen to absorb energy resulting from vehicle impact.

A towable, articulated elongated traffic barrier includes traffic barrier modules having articulating interconnected ends. A restrictor element restricts articulation between adjacent modules. Each module includes two spaced wheel assemblies positioned inwardly from the ends thereof.

Towable elongated traffic barrier

A system for repositioning an elongated traffic barrier utilizes a tow vehicle connected to one end of the elongated traffic barrier to exert a pulling force on the elongated traffic barrier and a drag connected at the other end of the elongated traffic barrier to exert a drag force opposed to the pulling force exerted by the tow vehicle to resist wandering of the elongated traffic barrier during repositioning thereof.
