We can also mount signs on them for long term traffic control rentals for use in advanced warning applications, various traffic control setups and detour routes. The barricades can be mounted in a variety of ways. They can be mounted on portable bases held in place with sand bags, mounted on driven post bases driven into the ground, or they can be mounted on wooden posts set into the ground. The panels can be sheeted with various directional sheeting depending upon the side of the road they will be used on and depending upon the travel direction of the traffic. The barricades can hold a variety of different size signs based upon the application and use of the signs.
The barricades can have type “B” flashing lights mounted to them based on the state they are being used in and the type of setup being used. The color of the light is dependent upon the use of the barricade. For instance road closed may need yellow lights, stop may need red, active work zones may need white.
