Detailed Description
HYDROCADE™ Water Filled TL-3 Barricade System (72" x 32")
The new Plasticade Hydrocade delivers the perfect balance of durability, visibility, stackability, and quick deployment – everything you need in a modern water-filled barricade. This water-filled barricade system can be used as a TL-3 longitudinal traffic channelizing (LTC) device. Constructed with high-quality, medium-density polyethylene plastic that is durable and resistant to splitting, cracking, and deterioration – even in inclement weather. Barricade is lightweight when empty for easy transport and placement without heavy equipment yet provides excellent stability and impact absorption when filled with water.
Applications for this patent-pending evolution in LTC devices include: construction areas, work zones, crowd control, temporary roadblocks, public works projects, special events and sporting events, traffic channelizing and control, security, pedestrian protection, warehouse logistics, retail and outdoor dining safety, towing, construction, towing impound yards, retail pickup areas, and government security.
