traffic barrier
Vehicle flow divider
A traffic barrier is a structure that separates lanes of traffic or prevents vehicles from leaving the roadway.
Jersey barriers are the familiar concrete dividers on highways; guardrails line dangerous curves and bridge edges.
Traffic barriers absorb or redirect impact energy during collisions: The car hit the traffic barrier and spun back onto the shoulder.
