Abstract
A highway self-restoring channelizing device that is placed along the traveled way to guide motorists through temporary construction zones. The self-restoring channelizing device comprises a foam rubber body encased in a reinforced rubber outer casing that is attached to a rigid base. The base is in turn adhered or anchored to highway pavement. The self-restoring channelizing device has a shape that when viewed in elevation from the side has a wide base sloping upward to a narrow almost vertical upper portion. When viewed from the direction of traffic the self-restoring channelizing device has a tall rectangular shape. The self-restoring channelizing device will not displace and immediately restores to its original shape when impacted or run-over by a vehicle. The self-restoring channelizing device is quickly adhered to pavement and can be removed using a scraper type tool.
