Frequently Asked Questions about Concrete Jersey Barriers
1. What are concrete jersey barriers?
Jersey barriers are robust concrete barriers originally designed to minimise vehicle damage in case of accidental impact while also reducing the likelihood of a vehicle crossing into oncoming traffic paths during a collision. They are widely used for traffic management, road safety, and perimeter protection.
2. What are the dimensions of a standard jersey barrier?
A typical jersey barrier is approximately 32 inches tall and 24 inches wide at the base, with lengths varying from 10 to 20 feet. Specific dimensions can vary depending on the manufacturer and the intended use.
3. How much does a concrete jersey barrier weigh?
The weight of a jersey barrier can vary, but a standard 10-foot long barrier typically weighs around 4000 pounds (about 1800 kilograms). This substantial weight helps ensure stability and resistance against impacts.
4. Can jersey barriers be used for site security?
Yes, jersey barriers are excellent for enhancing site security. Their robust construction makes them ideal for controlling access to sites, protecting sensitive areas, and serving as a deterrent against unauthorised entry.
5. Are there different types of jersey barriers available for hire?
Yes, we offer a variety of jersey barriers suitable for different needs, including standard concrete barriers, reinforced barriers for heightened security, and smaller sizes for more compact areas or specific traffic management needs.
6. How are jersey barriers transported and installed?
Due to their weight, jersey barriers require transportation by HIAB truck and are typically installed using heavy machinery like cranes or forklifts. We provide full delivery and installation services to ensure the barriers are positioned correctly and safely.
7. Can jersey barriers be linked together?
Yes, jersey barriers are designed with interlocking ends that allow them to be securely connected, forming a continuous barrier that enhances their effectiveness in crowd control and traffic management.
8. What maintenance do jersey barriers require?
Jersey barriers are low maintenance; however, regular inspections are recommended to ensure they remain in good condition and are properly positioned. They may need occasional cleaning or repositioning based on site requirements.
