jersey barrier
Concrete lane separator
A jersey barrier is a modular concrete or plastic barricade used to separate lanes of traffic or protect areas from vehicles.
The segments have a distinctive sloped profile—wider at the base, narrower at top—designed to redirect vehicles rather than stop them abruptly.
They appear on highways, at construction sites, and around buildings requiring security: Jersey barriers lined the parade route.
